I'm guessing "one more step" was a consistent recurring theme, looped about 18,000 times.

No, never had those thoughts. I did question my fueling related to the slower pace. Never questioned why I was out there. It was just another obstacle to conquer.

1 degree at 11:30 this morning here. This was after spending three days in Huntington Beach for a race in Disneyland this weekend where it was in the high 60's.

Same here. No snow in the foreseeable future! Wish the roads weren't salted.

I drove in the Bemer from Durango to Houston starting yesterday morning. It was snowing and icy all the way down into New Mexico. Otherwise it was dry and fast until the heavy rain started after Fort Worth heading to Houston. All in all I enjoyed the drive - the Baby Bemer is awesome on the road... This morning it is raining here in Bellaire.
