Mine resistant, ambush protected vehicles (MRAP), produced by Navistar International, are loaded onto an airplane at the Charleston Air Force Base in North Charleston, SC, in this Nov. 28th, 2007, file photo. The military is buying thousands of MRAPs to guard troops in Iraq and Afghanistan from deadly roadside bombs. These hulking machines - at about $450,000 a pop - rely on their heft and creative design to bull their way through blasts that can cripple Humvees.
10° Below this morning! Yesterday was cold enough and today looks to be worse. Im ready for Spring now. I was holding out for a foot of snow so I could play with my new snow thrower but enough is enough already. My propane bill is going to be sky high as it is!
Aaron & Ben have no school today so I need to remember that and not wake them up this morning! I was all upset with Aaron last night because he didnt get home until 10 p.m. and I thought they had school today. Wrong.

#BreakfastMichaelT I havent started the old Blazer for a couple days. I hope it starts OK this morning as I am supposed to breakfast with Michael T. Guess I shouldnt borrow trouble but with the weather so cold the past couple days I just happened to start worrying about that. Guess we will find out in a couple hours!
