Morning!
Sir James: I received my post card for the GV show...At least I think it's to me....It's my address, but the name is Guenevere and Garrett? LOL! I left a message on another post to meet up with TrainDaddy2, at the show. He has a table.
Wes: Great idea about the road trip! I'm a short 2-hours 54-minutes away!
We are still using our Snapper push mower we received with our house! Purchase receipt says 1987, so I guess it's officially an antique! I still have the same blades, I sharpen twice a year (just beginning to show the wear notches in the ends) and change oil annually.

lionroar88 laz 57 HI GYZ, 17 and windy cold here in MILLERSBURG, PA. To get to 37? TRAIN SHOW IN ALLENTOWN, tomorrow. Bunch of us going tomorrow. Can't wait. BUCKEYE, TGIF!!!! Stay frosty, laz57 Wish I could make it up to Allentown tomorrow Laz! Have to stay back and get some mountain building done. I got the last section of edging put up last night and then I realized I have to recut one section due to a layout modification, and may have to remove the section I installed last night so I can bump out that edge as well. Will decide that tonight when I get back into the train room. The AC6000 clears the edge by about 1/8 inch, I would be OK, but I would feel comfortable with an additional 1/2 clearance... Although I may go a full inch to 1.5 inches (what I had to do on the other side).

BRENT,
My Lionel BB only clears my back wall by about a half inch. I'm ok with that more would be better. When I first ran it was at a crawl and holding my breath to see if it didn't hit anything. Allentown is always a good show.
Good Morning All:
We had a 5% CD mature yesterday, so need to go to town the first of the week to take out another. The problem is, the best rate now is 2.75% for a 10 months CD and at a different bank. What a bummer. Almost not worth the effort (almost). I wish I could find a good short term (less than 5 Yrs.) investment that payed better. Old lawn mowers maybe?
I thought about toy trains, but don't know enough about the market to predict a reasonable short term gain buying and selling. Any ideas?
Thanks
Have a good NASCAR weekend!

Kurt, the new house is in Powell, OH. That's another 25 minutes south!
2 1/2 hrs away. Very do-able. After Easter would be best as my schedule is filling fast.
Jim
It's going to be after easter...or even July 4th. We won't be in the house until late May. I have to make the house presentable!
Wes.....790 miles and 13 hours, plus the time delays at the secure border crossings entering Ohio. I wonder how many days I would have to stay over to adequately rest the horses, provided they COULD run at 60mph.
Jack
IF IT WON'T COME LOOSE BY TAPPING ON IT, DON'T TRY TO FORCE IT. USE A BIGGER HAMMER.
MAPQUEST shows Powell to be very close to Worthington area. Do I have the right place? If so, when wife and I move in with daughter and SIL (lets hope this doesn't happen) will be real close and could help with layout also.
BTW, looking for any tools for that "shop?" Might be able to help out there too.
GregM, it's about 5 minutes away...
I would love to have a vertical panel saw...
Powell, OHIO.....A very rich, snobby, affluent, politcal, gated community just east of Dublin, Ohio. Now everytime I visit Wes, I will need to wear a coat and tie.
It's time for a cold one. I have been outside working all day. It was a beautiful day in Ohio. Temperature 20 degrees, windchill 5 degrees. Unfortunately, it didn't snow, but maybe it will tomorrow to make it a perfect weekend.
Has anyone seen my rare "I Love Ohio" boxcar lately?

There are 2 Powell Ohios, but this certainly clarifies things. Thanks, Buckeye. I should have known. Wes is in the snobby one. Must start polishing my work boots, the ones with the holes the dog chewed in them, so I can quietly fit in. Do they shoot at cars with MA plates in Snohio? Hope Laz reads this stuff on Powell. I don't think they allow Ole Mils inside the city limits.

I heard somewhere that Roseyville NC incinerated it, probably to destroy the evidence.
Afternoon all. Well, the 'water restoration' guys just left after being here all day. They took the drywall off the dining room ceiling, sealed the room and are running the worlds loudest dehumidifier. There's four more blowers and dehumidifiers upstairs where the bathroom and half of two bedrooms are stripped down too. The bride will love the dehumid drain tube snaking across half the house to her kitchen sink. And they're running this for the weekend. Well, it sure could be worse - mucho snow supposed to be here overnight - bllue skies and cold now. Basement looks like the best quietest part of the house... LOL

Jack.....I want you and the rest of the gang to see a typical house in Powell, Ohio, so here is the url: http://www.realestatedublin.com/MyHomeDtl.asp?lstPages=1&HomeID=835322
Please notice that Wes will have enough room to park his cars. Now let's all sing, "Movin on up."
Pat.....I sorta figured that evidence was being destroyed.
Hi guys,
This edition has grown very large very quickly so I'm locking it. Can someone please start a new edition and link back to this one?
Thanks, and have a great weekend,Erik
