Good Morning! After a really nice New Year´s day, our weather is back to what´s normal for this time of the year - dull and gray, with quite a lot of wet stuff expected to come down - yuck! I had a mile long HD list to w*rk down this morning. Our food supply needed replenishment, the usual beginning of the month banking business to be performed and a number of odds and ends following the holiday season to be done. The Christmas decoration is packed up for the year and I have to bring it upstairs to be stored in our attic. I managed to sneak in some minutes to go to our home improvement palce to check on the availibility and prices of the plywood I need for the benchwork. I don´t know what it is, but something kept me from buying it. I am still having unspecified second thoughts about the layout. I sure wish I could come up with something equally nice, but more compact. Endless searches did not result in any new idea. That sucks! Galaxy - thanks for your thoughts on Jeffrey. I would have loved to meet him in person, or only speak to him over the phone. We exchanged a number of PM´s and emails, some of them filled with his distinct, native humor. I still feel bad about not being able to help him more when the tree fell on his trailer. I did send him a couple of weathered boxcars, which took 3 moths to arrive. I miss him! There is an awfully nice smell coming from the kitchen, as Petra is preparing our lunch. I skipped breakfast this morning, so I am hungry, but I have to wait an hour before lunch is ready [dinner] I will be out in the afternoon, going to see my MRR friend. He has completed the benchwork for his new layout and is now having problems with putting the track down the way he had planned it (I knew this would come up). He is not much of a planner, more of a doer, but now has to find out that having a good plan helps a lot... CUL!
