With the cold temps this weekend watch out for freeze up on your heaters.  Keep them in a warm spot until you are about to use them.   I think the termcoupler freezes up.  All I know is that it sucks when its -20, and you don't have heat.

also when you go out this weekend, watch for cracks to open up. could be big ones too.
a sudden drop in the temps will do this and the safe passage you had in the a.m. might not look so good on the way in.
keep your eyes open and be careful.
take a kid hunting and fishing!!

 If your using something like a Sunflower heater....MAKE SURE YOU KEEP SOME FRESH AIR COMMING IN!!!

 I know with the extreme cold conditions, many will be tempted to keep things more buttoned up to hold in the heat but Carbonmonoxied is the silent killer.

 USE YOUR HEAD! We want you around for a long time

 Have a great weekend and be safe
