List:

Camped out in 18 degree F weather this past weekend.  Was in on the south
shore of Lake Superior Near the Apostle Islands on the Bayfield
Penninsula.  Not enough snow to cross country ski but the lake, woods and
hills were beautiful this time of year.  Plan on heading up the north
shore of the lake to the Canadian border this next weekend.

Years ago I did this alot with the coldest being about -10 degrees.  This
time used a kerosene heater (with windows open) to take the chill off in
the morning while engine and gas heater got going.  Don't especially like
the smell that kerosene heaters have when shutting down but love the
heat.  Carry lots of food and water, generally in the fridge so it will
not freeze.

Forgot to put the dish washing cloths between the stove grill and
stainless what-cha-macall-it when closing the cover.  Got the noisy
jangling and a few miles down the road pulled over and re-arranged things
to eliminate the noise.  Has been a habit to put something  to stop
vibration in that area since the vehicle was new.

Saw a westy for sale in Washburn, Wisconsin.  Had the top which opens
towards the back.  Peeked into the engine compartment and say a pancake
with twin carbs.  Had an Illinois air base sticker on it (old and barely
legible).  Tried to call the place today to find out any particulars but
got a recording.  Will try again.  The place is called "Auto Service
Center" and phone on door says 715-373-5460.  The van looked to be in
fair condition with little rust and one taped over rip in the back seat.
This is a town of about 2,000 in extreme Northern Wisconsin.

Thanks for all the advice and help over the years on this list and
type2.com.
