I'm not going top bother looking it up.

Plant is at 43.893022, -86.444899
Most of the facility is underground.
That is on the west side of Mi. right on the lake.
We went out to help an electrician one winter to wire an addition and a pole barn for someone.
He left his 2wd drive van in a well-lit parking lot by the police station and loaded stuff into out 4wd pick-up.
We had to back up and try again multiple times breaking thru bigger snow drifts to get to the site.
The measure snow out there in the feet because of the lake effect.

I guess Old Man Winter doesn't want to leave quite yet. I awoke to six inches of snow on the ground yesterday morning, and there's a bit of a nip in the air today.

Holy crap. Keep warm, Ohio! That's nasty.

Last night the news said we'd hit 41 today, but apparently Weather.com says otherwise. At least the sun will be out. Might get Frankus out for a little spin if the situations are right.

LOL, I'd be more jealous if I didn't understand just how bad we need the water/snow.

Although, a REALLY significant change has happened over the winter for the Great Salt Lake. It has risen an entire foot in water level since November, and that is before the snow is really melting much. That's a damn good increase.

I am due by length of time, but this S10 just keeps rolling for me. It's been such a good phone.

This S10 of mine has been through hell. 99% of my channel is filmed with it. Couldn't trust the damn GoPro anymore. Way too many audio issues.
