-50 below 0 and all is well.

The trucks are in the shelter parking lot and the dark, solid area in the background is the Food Bank - only a few hundred feet away - the ice fog is thicker this morning. Though we are still hard at work, some folks on the crew had the fortune of their vehicles starting, but then had to go rescue wives whose cars would not start. Anne both plugged in her truck last night, and covered it with a blanket and still her faithful truck grumbled as it started this morning. One crew member had to leave his trucking running ALL DAY yesterday or the cold would have claimed it and he could not have driven home last night. But once inside the building, the crew works merrily & toastily away.
