After four hour of 3-5 inches of snow, 2 hours of ice and 5 hours of straight down pour. Made it the new house.
 
Did a Lithium conversion on my golf cart today. Pretty easy install. Not much to modify. Came with its own charger and a touch screen battery monitor
The 6 agm batteries weighed 480 pounds and the lithium is only 105 pounds. So off the bat it will be faster and more efficient. Had the controller tuned so it now will go 35ish and prior to the tune it was 20mph

Looking at the Lake this morning. Ice fishing on the outer bay of Malletts Bay.

Buffalo is bracing for another lake effect event. Sad I won't be there to try out snowboarding in a storm, but I think I'll survive with a drink by the pool tonight.

Brought the kids out to Anaheim to see Lightning McQueen and the big mouse. Time change on the way out earned us some pool time yesterday.

Was at S Train this morning at Airstation Clearwater. Hangers weren’t open, but I got a shot by the Albatross out front.

If you ever trailer down to Tampa Bay, the St. Pete pier has municipal docks and there is a Doc Fords Rum Bar and in Apollo Beach there is Circles and Fins. Both good food and docks, tiki bars and live music. Then you can head up the river to Ricks on the River and dock there.
Further down 75 is the Manatee River. There is Whisky Joes and Woodys, both outside bars and good food too. Many options south for the roaming boater.

Is that paint that has chipped off his beak?
 
Made a big batch of bacon wrapped tater tots for a group dinner…Four pounds of bacon and large sack of tater tots and tooth picks.

Thaw tater tot’s
Cut bacon strips with a little overlap and wrap each tot, pin with a tooth pick.
Cover cookie sheets with foil (recipie called for parchment paper) and spray with Pam-once.
Set the oven to 425°, I used convection, with the sheet near the bottom. 22 mins is what it took in my oven to get them just right.
This filled an 8 qt bowl.
