Hello every one,
I am back, very tired though. I have never seen so many accident prone kids!! I was so busy putting on bandaids and triple antibiotic cream. Digging out splinters and pulling ticks!! Not to mention all the meds I had to pass. Not only where there about 90 kids there I had 22 developmentaly disabled adults. I never want to pass another pill again!!!! Other then that it was okay. I did actaully get to read a book. So how have you all been? Good I hope. Things calm down on the forums any? I have not had time to look around to see what the latest is. I am tired and will probably not look tonight. Well I guess I will talk at you all later.
Take care always,
Mel

Tim A,
Now listen here if you go and start listing all you mens negative traits then there won't be any thing left for us ladies to do!!!(just kidding) any ways I think I have only been through Nebraska and I was quit young so I don't remember it much. I really can't even say how nice Kansans are! The area I live in is freindly enough but some of the ones I see on the road think they own the road and the world!!! Some may help you on the side of the road and many will pass you buy. I have to say I am guilty of this. If I don't know them or if it is just men I will not stop becuse I hear so many bad stories. So if you are ever broke down in Kansas I would hope you get decent hospitality but I couldn't promise it! I my self would probably pass you buy unless you had a woman or child with you because I am a big scaredy cat!!
Take care always,
Mel

Aw Tim- you are from Illinois, so you are almost one of us!

Years ago, a friend from California was in Lincoln and while taking a walk around the neighborhood, met numerous people, also out for a walk. All of them spoke! This person has never forgotten our friendliness to this day!

And Oz regularly visits Lincoln - he comes to watch trains, I am sure!

Ladies, Please forgive me. I tend to write before I think.(A bad habit most of us men have). When I was reading the conversations someone mentioned the land of OZ. I assumed both you ladies were from the western part of your states. I traveled extensivly through western Neb. and Kansas. I worked as a consulting Engineer for several cellular phone companies looking to set up cell sights.
I still travel through Eastern Kansas. I make several trips a year from Kansas City to Chanute Kansas to attend radar seminars. And yes that part of Kansas is very nice.
And Jen yes the people in Nebraska are very friendly. In 1992 I ran out of gas just outside of Kearney Neb. A farmer stopped and took me to his farm for gas. His wife insisted that I stay for Supper. (A very good meatloaf.) They were so kind, the next day before leaving Kearney I stopped at the local store and bought toy's and dropped them off, for they had two small boy's. I still get a Chistmas card from them.

Jenny, Your plea for information as to the whereabouts of the cake falls on deaf ears. It has been widely published, 6/02/03 12:35pm, that you knew, precisely, where the cake was located. Of course, there is the possibility that particular cake NO LONGER exists. Quite likely, I fear.

Lowell

[Mookie]

Hey!

We aren't even sure if the cake is still edible!

Jen

[Mookie]

Wabash: Bless you my child! Hope I have enough strength to jack slap him! That chocolate cake is a pretty good incentive!

Jen

[wabash1]

Tim A,
I don't think I have had the pleasure of speaking to you yet. If you are replying to me "Mel" my name is actually Melissa. I am not sure if sir referd to me or not-lol. If so I take no offense!
I use the nick name Mel because it is shorter and easier. (me being lazy I guess) As for Kansas being flat? You must have been through Western Kansas. I have never been to that part and I have heard it is very flat. We have the Flint Hills in Kansas also. The land is actually beautiful(when the farmers are not burning)If you come a little farther East there are actually lots of trees and greenery. We have lots of farm land but also alot of unused land that has nothing but trees. We by no means have mountains as you all well know but we do have hills. It is not so much you can't always see miles down the tracks because there are no hills but more the curves and trees. That is more my area. I am not saying Kansas is all that great(lol) but it is not quite as boring as people make it out to be. It has many pretty areas. If you just come in a little farther!!! Well as for boring I am sure some places are I don't know. How many of you all have been into the heart of Kansas in your travels? I bet you could paint a better picture then me on this! Honestly the closer you get to the Flint hills the more untame the land. I don't know that very many if any tracks really go through the Flint Hills but I know they are in the areas around So maybe a few of you have been around this area to see. Any way just clearing up a few misconceptions about me (Mel) and Kansas's horrible boring flat lands!!!
Take care always,
Mel

[Mookie]

well, Kev, if I didn't like you I could say - the thought has crossed my mind. But you are young and you will learn eventually!

Tim - Nebraska and Kansas have some of the flatest ground you would ever want to encounter - in a car. We do have some hills - bluffs around Council Bluffs IA - around the "Mizzoura" River.
Western Nebraska is a little better, but still fairly flat. We have no mountains, no oceans, not much in the way of water with the drought, but we do have some of the nicest people you would ever want to meet.

The winters in Nebraska are Minnesota cold, the summers are Texas hot and the humidity is Florida for 9 mos of the year! That is in the east, where I live. Out west is less humidity, more rain and a lot less people. We have one county that has only one "town" of any size in it. And we have a huge sandbox up north around Valentine NE.

No - Lincoln Nebraska - Ken was from the land of Oz awhile ago.

Gentlemen: I am truly flattered and honored.

My first wish is for peace on the forum and that we keep our sense of humor.

Now where is that BBQ and Chocolate Cake?

Jen ( I will only use the title on special occasions)

HRU Jenny sounds fine to me.

Sir, if I remember right, the track in that territory is strait and flat. Just like the scenery. That must make for some long boring day's when running a train. Am I wrong?
I hope I have not offended. I drove through there several years ago. I came across some rail crossings were you look down the track and see track so long and strait the rails look like they touch near the horizon.

Okay Kev,
If you are refering to the Land of Oz the actual name of the show is the Wizard of Oz. So that name of the "bad" man is the Wizard. The city is called Emerald City. I am thinking Missouri is in his own state (although I could be wrong) and Mike well I have know clue where he is for All I know he could be just down the road. Of course my theory of flying monkeys are bad. I take bird crap over monkey crap any day.
