I did a newsletter for a Model Airplane club for years. It was great fun and I always had plenty of material. Then, all of a sudden, poof nothing to put in the newsletter and suddenly it was huge drudgery.

Sounds to me that some guys are discovering just how hard it is to come up with some interesting stuff on a weekly basis. It's even worse when you face a deadline and the mind has gone blank! Bears out that old adage of "Look before you leap!"

If you are one of those to whom it just comes naturally, great, you ought to be in the newspaper business!

Flooded California, parched and xerotic Oklahoma and Texas, and snow forecast for us. Winter is nothing if not wide spread.

Hello again,

I am going to get off my lazy butt, and do an issue of my paper sometime this week, after seeing tangerine-jacks letter to Capt., it got me motivated. If it ever stops raining (those of you who watch the weather channel and look at the west coast know what I am talking about, storm after storm after storm! Been raining almost non-stop!) Just have a little patience my friends!

Happy garden railroading!

Getting the idea from cappy, I have decided to make my paper a monthly publication with double length, and pictures. Thank you. Expect the next issue within the next few weeks!
