It is a bit nippy out in Nebraska, I think it is supposed to get down to 
about 10 degrees (f) tonight,  and hover around freezing tomorrow, some snow 
on the streets, but mostly clear.  I would get the TR250 out anyway, but the 
seats in out for a restuffing, and of course more issues discovered, so 
won't be operational, if time permits I will snap a couple pics and forward 
them on, I suppose the 10th is already happening over in jolly old by now.
