Posts: 3836 From: Albuquerque, NM Registered: Feb 2000 posted 01-13-2004 11:38 AM                        Some friends are finishing out their new cabin in Fairbanks, AK. They mentioned weather predictions in November for severe cold warnings, not good when there's no glass in the windows yet (just clear plastic wrap at that point). So they obtained 2" foam insulation for the windows as a stop gap. Turns out the severe cold never came--only got down to -42°F(!). They now have all but one window installed and have running cold water in the garage. The interior walls went up during the holiday season and they hope to have a bathroom in before this semester begins (he's a computer programmer for the UA system, she's a professor of Japanese at UA Fairbanks). They are both loving life now, finally Alaskans again after almost 20 years of chasing degrees and careers together all over the rest of the world. Life is good.

Do you know what part of Fairbanks they are building in?  |  IP: Logged Paul Mayer Oh get out of it Melvin, before it pulls you under!

Will probably find out this summer--I'm planning on seeing them on my way to Japan then.  |  IP: Logged Phil Hill I love my cootie bug Posts: 7595 From: Hollywood, CA USA Registered: Mar 2000 posted 01-13-2004 11:18 PM                  Ummm... not to talk about "ass", but today it was a fantastic 82 here in Hollywood! There were many people riding their bikes (That is Motorhertz, not bicycles, for Mr. Schaffer's benefit and understanding). There were many convertibles with the tops down as well with REALLY cuties driving. So Josh, what temp did you have up there today? Just curious... >>> Phil  |  IP: Logged Michael Schaffer "Where is the Boardwalk Hotel?"

And the sun has been out & bright all day. It's supposed to gradually warm up a wee bit. By Sunday, we may see the temperature get up to 20°F. Yeah, sure, that's still below freezing, but it will feel better!  |  IP: Logged Phil Hill I love my cootie bug Posts: 7595 From: Hollywood, CA USA Registered: Mar 2000 posted 01-14-2004 03:56 PM                  Gracia, I thought I'd cheer ya up....
