1. There are at least 20 people waiting for Les Schwab to open to get their snow tires on.

2. There must be some new people on my road because I’ve gotten stuck behind people driving 10-15 mph the last two morning. S ack up assholes and drive faster on glare ice, it isn’t that slippery.

3. The 1/2 & 1/2 went bad at the office so my oatmeal is very dense .

17 with a couple inches of new snow here. Not as bad as I thought it was going to be this morning when they said a high of 18 today. I take the bus/walk now so it has greatly cooled my disdain for other drivers in the snow.

Am I the only one who gets nostalgic for previously owned cars when one sees a picture of the dashboard/audio/HVAC controls? Good ol’ Mazda3 . . . had some good road trips in that car.

Took me a while to find the temp readout, and yes, I looked at the 1 and thought, no, that must be Radio Preset or something.... I mean, I’m no stranger to cold weather but yikes.

I thought about the Montana Oppos when I saw our forecast. It’s 16 here now and predicted to be a little colder tonight which is cold but not Montana cold. Better bring in the brass monkeys.

I’m going to Portland tomorrow and looking forward to highs in the 50's.

No unusual during a normal winter, but in October it’s unheard of.

I miss the Mazda3 already. 

Yours has some really low miles, too.

This is what happens when you have a short commute and this is not ou r road tripping car. We put about 10k on the outback per year and about 6-7 k on this car.

That’s what is was here two days ago. It was beautiful, but of course that couldn’t last.

Ours was our road tripping car and it got about 5 k/year... Combined, we never crack 10k between both our cars.

The overall 8.5k/year average that her Mazda3 had was because she drove home every weekend from college, which was about 15k/year for those years.

The insurance agent had me almost breaking down crying about the car. We’ll miss it, but at least it went to a good home that really wanted one and we’re confident that he’ll love it like we did.

Usually when I hear how cold it is “out west” we get it like 3-4 days later. Right now we’re stuck in a pattern of cold drizzle which is kind of unusual for any time of year. Not to worry, it’s going to be broken up by hard rain all day Thursday. Happy Halloween!
