Oh that's pretty cold! Yesterday most of the day was in the 30s and I was outside for a decent amount of time doing Christmas decorations. Most were up, but I added and moved stuff around.
Yesterday was 52*F here, but the wind has been hitting 50-55 mph, so your Christmas decorations would be 3 or 4 counties away by now. Lol
Good to know that you are still planning to do more work on your car, hope you and your family had a good Thanksgiving.
