Back to Snow
Well, I've been busy and/or lazy the last several months, and now it's snowing again here in Colorado. Nothing like last year yet, though! Just about 7 inches swept off the Tracker this morning.
The biggest news lately: new job, new vehicle, new computer.
My contract with Centura ended in August, and I am now driving to Broomfield every day on a contract at Level 3 Communications.
My poor old '93 Cherokee had 226,000 miles on it, the driver's side door was about to fall off its hinges, and the windshield area was so rusty it was about to fall in. So I traded it in for a 2001 Chevy Tracker 2-door convertible (in October, when "top down" days are increasingly scarce). Better gas mileage though--and reliable 4WD, too.
Just last week my old laptop (almost 3 years old, positively ancient) blew its fan. So after running for a few minutes, it gets too hot and blips off. Repairing it was not reasonably priced, considering the age and value of the computer anyway, so I now own a basic Toshiba laptop--the least expensive one I could find, and it still outperforms the old one.
My Tracker receives its baptism of snow.
