Well, I take Joyce to MBS tomorrow and from there I'm headed to 3BS
with a snow blower.

I cleaned the Deb off with a broom.
If it makes the mid 20s tomorrow (supposed to be really nice) the dual
catalytic heater should bring the temperature up to the point where
the snow and ice melt off. Then I can wrap up the cowl *again* and
heat the engine up enough to fire it up.

I may have to wait till Saturday to fly it, but a few times around the
pattern and then an oil change. Then maybe a few hours of just
sightseeing and feeling guilty about not working on the G-III. <:-))

It's supposed to get into the 30s this weekend. If it does, maybe I'll get off
my but and dig the Maule out.
