Hi Mike,

Don't I wish! Looks like winter is finally here. First time in weeks that 
New Hampshire has had had consistent temps below freezing. I'm headed north 
tomorrow (Sunday) with the snowmobile for the first time this season. Looks 
like there may be big storm coming on Wednesday.

How's the loop project coming along? I'll send you the diagram of my current 
meter later tonight.
