Default Beautiful weather in the NW! and ideas on preheat

A big ol' high pressure has taken over the Northwest and I've been flying!



Enjoy it, man. We've been socked in here for a week, and last night we got
hit with a nasty ice/snow storm.

I'm expecting FEMA to roll in any minute...

I was thinking about you while watching the weather channel : -). I
drove to work with the top down today, but I think today was it.
Tonight, cold, raining, tomorrow worse.

On that subject:

We still haven't done anything about a preheat system. What I'm
thinking of now on Michelle P's suggestion is one of those oil pan heat
pads (the metal ones) on a thermostat. Any better/different ideas? I
haven't gotten Ron to agree on anything yet, but once I say "It's below
40, you aren't starting my new engine" he will make some decisions.
