I usually shut down during the winter months and go online parts shopping. Then when spring hits, and the temps get to be about 50 degrees or so, I'll start back up again until like Craig says it gets above 90 degrees.

Keep in mind that Craig's definition of "hot" greatly differs from mine. I'm used to working in 90+ degrees with 90+ humidity, no problem. When I was out there at the end of May in 2005, I was ready to keep going when everyone else decided it was too hot to work. Heck, it felt like early springtime in Kansas to me! As long as I have something cool to drink, I can go on and on in the heat.

As for cold, I can't take the cold like I used to, when it gets below 50 degrees it's time to throw on the heavy coat and another log on the fire. Funny thing is, at the end of winter, when it gets to 40 degrees here, it feels like a heat wave, after suffering from "in the teens and below" temps here during winter.
