OK Toad,

So you will see more posts here in the near future, as the heat breaks in the south here and new out-door construction begins.

 That's a guarantee.....

So, what's the reason for the heart break?

It is enough that Jesus died and that he died for me.

Well HEAT season here has changed to WIND season or as its also known FIRE season, if you've seen the news...next comes COLD season or as its sometimes known DELUGE or MUDSLIDE season...after that we go back to HEAT season again.

Heat has definetly broke here, only reached 80 today, begun clearing out the back corner of the yard, be afriad, very afraid...Laugh [(-D]

Before you ask, no official plans as I'm still am not 100% sure my idea will work, had too many proposed plans go bust in the past leaving me with egg on the face, so till I'm underway I'm remaining mum, BTW I have posted a preliminary idea, but you'll have to look overseas for it.Smile,Wink, & Grin [swg]

   Have fun with your trains

Nope, I'll just continue to accuse you of having more prime movers than feet of track.  More fun that way.  Fire season you say?  Is that somthing like this?

Toad how far west did you go. I ran a train out from my under house storage the other day and there sitting on top of a refer was a toad. He rode around for a while and then was gone. Also curious about the lighthouse len. I was a lighthouse tender in the Coast Guard. Your lens seems unusual. Most frenel lens have a round bottom and are larger.

Have fun, Rob
