Toy train operating and collecting

Just picked and gave some tomato's to our neighbors as were getting tomany for just the 2 of us.

Morning all got up about 8:30 got crock pot pot roast going and made some breakfast ( biscuits and eggs) and when all was good went back to bed about 10 and got up at 12:30 so bet I won't be able to sleep tonight now oh well needed the extra rest feel pretty good now. Might go work on some shelves to display some trains and get them out of there boxes. Will talk to you all later have a good day

Good afternoon everyone.  Seems we have  a chatty bunch here, which is good.  Just need the cliff notes version so I can stay up with things.  Had a good morning in that I slept  a little later than normal and still got to church in a timely fashion.  Church was great as usual.  We went to one of our old Sunday school classes and it has grown by leaps and bounds.  I guess they had about 150 people in the class, which is larger then some Sunday morning services that I have been to.  Caught up with some friends of ours who we have been wanting to take out for lunch/dinner for some time.  The guy who played the Lt. in Fireproof and his wife and daughter.  The wife is due in the next week to deliver a son and this may be the last chance till their house returns to normal.

Chief, those are some nice matters ya got there.  We harvested a couple yesterday and I plan on having some good sandwiches tomorrow.  I am on call this week ahead, so I hope to not get beat up too bad. 

Patrick, take care of yourself.  Also, if you should get on any flights, make sure you get up every so often and walk around to prevent a DVT from ruining your trip.

Jim, let bride know that she is being prayed over and cared about.

Have a blessed week ahead.

Chief, thos pretty tomatoes are enough to make a grown man cry.

Doug, welcome home.  I thought that place you were staying at sounded like the Sheraton Waikiki.  We stayed there the first time I went to Hawaii.  It is a beautiful place.  You can stand in the lobby and feel the trade winds blowing though from the ocean.  We swam both in the ocean and the pool while there.  They used to have some night time entertainment beside the pool for guest and a buffet dinner served in a dinning area above the pool.  Sounds like you had a great time.  That Sheraton is my favorite place to stay on Waikiki.

We stayed in pretty well all day doin things like track laying--

The rain started in the morning and just started to let up about a half hour ago. We had a 2 hour t'under boomer letting loose all over us with hail, monsoon and wind as well---so far the strongest gust I see on the monitor was 95kmh----

I'm out on the deck doing the Salmon on the grill now----gotta take advantage of any time you git----

Have a good evenin'

Good evening all,

IIABSDISEI with temps in the 80s.  Heat and humidity have left for a while.  We went to Mass, and I went to the YMCA and did weights.  Watched the US almost beat Brazil in the Confederation Cup.  Did some edging on the sidewalks and sprayed some more weeds.  I had the regular fare on the dining car for breakfast.  Beacon is lit and I can drive again unless some one else wants to take over.  I hope everyone has a good day.

Keep on training,

Evenin' boys.  Evenin' English.  Had a nice 4 hour sail this afternoon, including a few tacks around a Norwegian Cruise Ship.  Family had a nice time, and we got real good with our return to the slip this time. 

Got my new 6-pack of WESTERN MARYLAND hoppers, as well as a WM TOFC car...all form MTH.

cnw1995 - Welcome back.  That stack of work on your desk...yeah, no one took care of it cuz they wuz all jealous...

Lawson Farms - I do trust that you will make a full recovery, Sir.  Lovernox...hey ain't that that 2-part lotion that makes things feel all warm & tin-gul-lee...

Evening All

Strange weather, London On. is just a little east of us, they had rain and we had a beautiful summer day. Well one never knows.  No breaking news here just enjoyed the day and took a short trip to see # 1 son. Also I did get in a short train run this morning. Banilla is waiting...S.J.

 Good evening,

 Just checking in to try and catch up.  Sounds like Jon is home from his ride & Doug is home from "vacation".  The Chief is growing lots of tomatoes & Pat had some health problems but is on the mend.  Hope everyone else is doing great.

I'm doing fine, but it was not a good week end as my oldest step sister passed away in her sleep Thursday night.  The funeral will be on Wednesday.  She has had some health problems, but this was totally unexpected.

 Have a great week.

Sorry John, prayers.  Lazy day and night.  Now off to bed.

John - prayers for your family.

SJ - sorry I missed you again - been busy with company all weekend, in-laws visiting from KC.  Had a great visit, will miss them when they leave tomorrow.  I'll catch up on the pot tomorrow   Did run trains for an hour with my father-in-law.

TARDIS is ready and I'll be around to pick you guys up in a couple minutes

John - My prayers for consolation are being said for the loved ones of your sister and for her eternal resting in paridise of her soul.

May God bless

Jim

Doug:  Glad you had a great trip!  Thanks for checking!  How about posting some of the photos of you surfing!

Brutus:  on the running of the trains with FiL!

Jim:  No license...I'm glad she's practicing with that one.  Problem is I'm looking at Harleys, and Bride's looking at dirt bikes for the girls.

Pat:  Love the farmerisms!

Finally admitted it.  Loves the white because it reminds him of GRITS.

Just because you are on the mighty "Mississip" does not mean you are a Southerner.

Morning all.  Lower temps this week and lower humidity.  Thinking about buying a new John Deere rider for the house here and giving older one to Frankie.  My old 15 year old Murray I gave him several years ago has about had it.   Got errands to run.  Chat later.
