since our area had a freezing fog last night that left everything nice and slippery , and it took me an hour to make the first four miles of my commute this morning, i called my boss and left a message i would be late comming in. she got back to me saying we are grounded for today and tomorrow anyway so if i just wanted to stay home that was fine. kids had school cancelled so i picked them up and came home. browsing on craigs list and ran across a pretty interesting add. 88 ranger fish/ski with 140 merc for $600 on a good trailer. a little tlc and come april or may i bet i could double my money. once again though i only find these deals when ive just been hit by too many other expenses lately. oh well there always out there if you look hard enough :cheers:
