It is NOT fun having your hands in that cold water all day! Even with neoprene gloves it was pretty miserable.

Managed to get 343 sq. ft. of tile on the floors even with the crummy weather outside!

    It's about low 30's right now in the deep dark woods of Carmel Valley. Strangely no frost. I reckon it's dry but damn cold.

    I can't claim credit for that, but it does look pretty good. I'm working inside putting 18"x18" floor tile down. 357 feet to go to finish this job then across town for 3200 feet on another job. We got 8 more inches of snow last night so just getting around town could be a chore!

    Actually it was so cold the side walks had ice on it. I was on my right side before I realized it was ice [:D]. Being 6'3" I thought it would take longer to get on the ground. Hell I didn't even feel my feet go. I was flopping like a fish wondering how'd I got here.
