This. Place. Is. HELL. Frigid, desolate hell! It was 0 degrees with 30-40 mph winds when I got out of the car in Grand Forks. If I survive this week with all of my toes and fingers, I'll consider it a success. It is awesome that we are trying to start an engine on a fuel that HAS NEVER BEEN USED BEFORE when it is going to be -30 degrees ambient temps. If this isn't destined for failure, I don't know what is.
Also, w.t.f. I turned on the TV in the hotel room and the news is on...and the news anchor is a chick that I graduated from high school with, again, w.t.f.
