Unfortunately, Dave's duties kept him away until well after supper time.

Did Dave get Bob's famous spaghetti? If so, I'm jealous. [;)]

Dave came over last night; and we spent a few very enjoyable hours playing with and talking about trains. You can get the feeling that you know folks after a while from their forum postings. But, when you meet face-to-face, you realize how inadequate the impression you get over the internet is, compared to the pleasure of a personal encounter.

Dave took some pictures; and I hope he will post a few when he gets back.

Dave - Threadgills is an Austin landmark...good food and lots of it. I'm here, but have been busy running errands during the day since Karen and I are both off for Spring Break. Hope you were able to run the bike paths along town lake - scenery is great! (wink)

Ed called me this afternoon (Tuesday) and said you guys hooked up and had a good time.
Small Layouts are cool! Low post counts are even more cool! NO GRITS in my pot!!!

I'll be visiting Bob this evening. Been trying to reach Jim Duda since I got here but just get his answering machine. You there Jim??? (I lost my cell phone earlier in the week so I'm a bit hard to get ahold of).

Visited Ed Weltens and his lovely wife yesterday evening at a restaurant with a strange name: ThreadGill. He dismantled his old layout and is planning a new one & he gave me a preview of some sketches. His wife even allowed him a room!

Nope, too much travel and, when home, Roseyville business. Glad to see you are OK. [:)]
