Good Morning from Blueberryhill....
It is a snowy 33 degrees. Light snow coming down, but nothing on the ground. Suppose to get to 42 today with more snow coming this morning.
Today is a busy day. I have a bunch of errands to run and a meeting this afternoon. I will be happy to see an old friend.
Dining car is here with the usual breakfast.
Y'all have a great Wednesday.
Chuck
Hi GUYZ,
Warm here at 62 but LOTs O RAIN. Just behind our school one of my students DAD got a HUGE 16 pointer with a 22 inch inside spread. This could rank as the second biggest buck in state history? Stay tuned.
Stay frosty,

Good morning all,
It is cold in SE Indiana. Watched "Glee" last night. Show was better than last week's episode, but if it does not improve, I will drop that as well. Busy day at work yesterday and will be in "catch-up" mode today. Makes time go by. I had cereal and english muffins on the dining car for breakfast before sending it on to "Points East". TBIL anytime and I can drive. Looking forward to seeing what Brutus has done to the Tardis. I hope everyone has a good day.
Keep on training,
Mike C. from Indiana
Home again. Weather allert keeps going off. Sleep tight.
Hey guys.... well the sniffles have struck our house again. I have 2 of my kids and the wifey under the weather. Missed SJ and Brutus last night as I was playing nurse... Have a great Wednesday!

Wow - freezing cold in Saint Louis all day, yuck! Doc appt went okay, but need to lose weight and cut salt, etc. Also changed my sinus meds a little. I have to do labs still, didn't know they wanted fasting labs. I'll do those Thursday morning I guess. Sure hope there are no surprises. I'm in training for a day tomorrow, so it should go fast. Prayers for your interview, Rich!
TARDIS is ready so let's hit it!
RIP Chewy - best dog I ever had.
Good evening,
Winter is here, today we got a little rain along with the cold. Rather nasty day out there. I haven't hunted in a few years. Son & DIL have 6 deer so far this season, 2 in PA and 4 in SC. That is way more deer meat than I would want to eat.
Anybody heard anything from Don Baker lately? Think I will give him a call.
Good Evening From The Jersey Shore,
I have not had a chance to read and post lately. I have not had a chance to catch up on the all of the posts that I missed. I hope that everyone had a great Thanksgiving. I have been to a couple of local train shows lately. I scored a Lionel 6250, Seaboard NW2 Switcher for a great price with crisp lettering, excellent condition and runs great for a low price. I went to the Greenberg Show in Edison on Sunday. The biggst show that I can remember and it was pretty crowded. I bought a BEEP that I could not resist.
Rich, Good Luck with the interview tomorrow.
Thoughts and Prayers for Everyone in Need.

Good Evening
50s are gone 30s are here.
Set G ga. christmas train under the tree, then watched TV.
Banilla is ready so swing on by with the thingy...S.J.
Good afternoon all, cool weather continues here but a little warmer (70) tomorrow. Kind of a slow day but I managed to run some trains this morning without any mishaps. A friend of mine forwarded a video of our carpet central layout in action at Cal Stewart. Sad thing was realizing how many trains were missing since last year because of a train theft from one of our guys. Ran my MTH proto 1 ACL A-B-A F units sans electronics today with just a reverse unit and two motors. It ran great, if I could just figure out how to get the headlight back on. Got E mail today telling me that my recent purchase of a MTH Southern Railway PS4 steam engine is on the way. Looking forward to that. I don't have any green cars to run with it but will probably just run my scale GGD pullman cars behind her. Just read today that ATSF 3751 steam engine will take part in the Railroad Fair or whatever they call it in Rock Island Illinois next year. They will run a fan trip behind it each way plus some short trips at the show. I'm glad to see that the class one railroads haven't completely banned steam engines so far. Every time I think I have seen the last mainline steam trip, another one turns up. I'm not complaining.

Good Evening Guys!
I'm kinda whooped....went to bed at 10 then was up at 1130 PM to 0300 for a mutual aide call...and then we spent that time in the engine as they locked us out of the firehouse. I had my bunker gear on, at least that and the engine were warm.
Spent the day setting up Christmas for a neighbor and that was a all day affair, but it came out kinda nice, so I'm happy and so is she.
OK, I'm gonna get to bed, I have a important interview at 11 AM so I have to be rested.
Check back soon!
Rich

Wow it's so dark and rainy, I slept over an hour. The sinus pill might have helped me sleep too...S.J.
50 and drizzle.
We took advantage of the 50s and went shopping this morning. After today, 30s. Tomorrow starts a new month, I hope there's something on the letterhead besides grits and shrimp. S.J.
Thanks CHIEF, WISH I could.
How's is that new NS GENSET? Mine runs great! The only thing Lionel nuts up on was they put the horse facing the wrong direction.
Aloha all. Grey and cold - typical day. Didn't make it down to the Shedd again on their free day yesterday at lunch. Might hike up to the Contemporary Art museum to see their weirdness. Good news about Char's improvement, Brutus. I imagine it is very hard on her folks. Glad they're around though. Am I the only one wondering what the Chief is watching on Lifetime - a channel much beloved by women of my acquaintence and loathed by their men

BANKS,
Did you see anything?
It is a rainy 52 degrees. Going up to 60 today with more rain on the way.
today is an easy day. I have a few chores to do and some paperwork to get out. Then, I can relax. Not much else new.
Dining car arrived from "Points West". The usual Cheerios breakfast is being served.
y'all have a great Tuesday.
mitchelr Evening to All, I thought I'd share a link to a YouTube video my sister posted showing my nephew and his Dad setting up his train set. He has definitely has been bitten by the train bug. He is so cute and so excited. I love his enthusiasm and the sheer joy on his face. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=156endNDvWY Take care, Mitch

Mitch:
Great DVD! With that much enthusiasm, and he is young enough that he had to stand on a chair to operate the train, you know it will last a life time. If we all developed just one young person like that, our hobby will have a great future.

Early to rise. Lucy to groomers and then off to Leland NC. Rain to start and then possible storms tonight. Have a great day. God bless. Later
It is rainy in SE Indiana with temps dropping all day long. Could be interesting tonight. Day got better as it went along. Will be busy day at work. Not sure if I mentioned this before, but went to see "Burlesque" Friday night. Good music, lots of dancing. I wish I had more to report, but sometimes no news is good news. I had bran muffins on the dining car for breakfast before sending it on to "Points East". TBIL after "Glee", which I hope is better than last week's slug. I hope everyone has a good day.
Good morning everyone. Heading in early as I have a big case this morning. Have to take care of that, meet up with some sales rep and the purchasing dept. Then, I get to head out for a hair cut...really need one, I am looking a bit shaggy these days.
Chief, all that yard work is not good for the sinuses. You need to take it easy and pay some young guy to take care of it....yeah, I know, you enjoy the work. That is a great thing to go and encourage the children. Kind of a funny thing, some of the folks who encouraged me to read and succeed were seemingly giants in politics and business....they are in jail now, but I digress.
Wife and I worked out at the gym yesterday for the first time in a while. I am feeling it today. Bit sore, but not too bad. Need to keep it up and get back in shape. With any luck, I will be able to make York this next year and Lord knows you need to be in shape to make it around all them tables!
Have a great day!Dennis

Jim,
What crossing gate did you get? It is always nice when you get something without needs. I got a set of 490-492 NP PAs off the bay to put away for Christmas this past weekend. They look decent from the pics, and the price was reasonable.
Not much going on here. Hopefully, I can get rolling on the Christmas layout soon, although that would require me to step away from Gran Turismo 5. Two bottles of RFG's smoke fluid came in the mail today. I love their smoke fluid. Exactly like the original Gilbert fluid. Still waiting on the 30B, but it is supposed to get here later this week.
