Flight to Vancouver only during Snowbird season?

i watched it through a welder's shield. It was great. 95% of the sun was blocked at 12:08.

Don't release those f-ing things. They kill animals.

True dat. Long preached by me. on the Irish Viking side. ....and the return of the Muckers.

I have installed many through the window or wall units - not a big deal. Also had a top of the line exterior/interior AC unit similar to a mini-split - not a big difference in efficiency, nor electricity used but difference in decibels - yes.

I think if all truckers geared down appropriately at the top of the hill, this could be avoided but so many are in a hurry. The general rule of thumb is to never go down faster than you could go up. I don't know the details but from the photo, it appears he tried taking the turn too fast, rather than loss of brakes. If brakes had failed, going straight through may have been a better choice, providing no obstructions.
