Thanks Jay. "Dedicated", is that what they call a fool in your neck of the woods?

It wasn't the worst, it was 50* after all...

I have to hand it to you not many would be outside pressure washing in February. I hope you do not find to many more surprises with this one. Good luck.

I wouldn't be out doing the pressure washing in Feb. either, but I couldn't go any further till I got the first layer of grime off it. So there wasn't much choice this time.
I think the same thing sometimes Tom. Like what were they thinking when they did ? I guess I'm a glutton for punishment.

Yeah, finally thawed out Jon. It was a good B.S. session, we need to chat more often.

I hope this one ends up being a "great machine"...
