Rat Redux

UK is being pounded by snow again, and Seth just sent me this photo! Seems like he doesn't like me referring to it as a "Rat", but here in 'Merica that's what we call it, so I don't care! ;)

Thanks for the photo, don't worry it's been below freezing over here too, so I will come prepared. See you soon mate!...

Special Thanks goes to Seth for being such an amazing enthusiast. Hope to meet you soon mate!!!
