Morning guys - made bacon, eggs (scrambled with some velveeta in them) and biscuits for breakfast. Jim, come on over and finish off the leftovers! No real plans today - might fiddle around in the basement, but my back has not really healed from last week yet, so will take it easy peesy!
Fife - a hook for one finger - Cool!
RIP Chewy - best dog I ever had.
Good Late morning to everyone. Went to early Church with Mike Huckabee today. He did a good job with preaching. Spoke about those who are hurting and how God is there with you....good message. I will be taking the family out for our usual Mexican food in just a few minutes. I am on the tired side as did not sleep well.
Chief, try to keep your fingers out of such places. Hope it heals fast and you get back to full strength.
God Bless,Dennis

One cup of water and 1/4 cup of grits. Add salt. Bring to a boil, cover and then simer on low heat for about 5 minutes [stiring occasionally]. Empty into bowl with table spoon of butter. Would make you an outstanding breakfast.
Back from Wilmington and Grandsons' dedication. Got home in time to catch new School Board member from other part of County visitng some folks in this area. Took her on a tour of Roseyville and the High School site I like. She agrees.
Busy day tomorrow. County Commissioners' tomorrow afternoon and Mayors' Assoc. tomorrow night.
All have a great week.

I was busy today. Wife arrived home from her weekend with daughter. The cook is back.
Good NASCAR race . I hope #48 takes the Championship.
Chief....I heard that you bit your finger, eating grits !!??
Dining car rolled in this morning for the usual breakfast.
Y'all have a great evening.

HI GYZ,
Nice day spent with MOM. Had a great day to travel up there with temps in the high60s, great for Nov.
Now to watch NHRA on ESPN. GO SARGE!!!
Evenin' boys. Beautiful day (up to 72). Went out on the Bay one last time, before docking and taking the sails down. Only casualty was a boat hook that fifepup lost overboard.
Good night, maties.
Evenin' Boys..
Trip up Nawth was long, had some troubles, nailed my interview, just need an offer sheet, which will be talked about tomorrow.
Happy Birthday Brutus, Bob & (soon) Jim T.
Prayers for Dennis's Mom. I wish I could have gone to the wake, just couldn't get it together in time.
OK, I'm up to page 20, crashing now, got in at 0155 this AM.
See ya 2 morrow!!

Aloha and good evening. A very busy day. The youngest was singing in three services and I was volunteered to stay with him from 730 am through 2 pm. I had to run the dog over to get shots between all this. Then babysat our pastor's four kids (age 1 - 7) for three hours tonight. I feel a good tired. Glad you're OK, Chief! Harold, the bride says the garage looks 'better' - the paint still doesn't match but I'm done for the season. LOL. Now, watching Desperate Housewives with the bride...

Was quite the evening service tonight. Had a bunch of media folks to hear the news about the next movie. Will be right up Fife's alley...Cops. I will fill in the details tomorrow. Been reading the latest OGR. I am currently reading the reviews on the Lionel SD70. While I am trying to keep things in the late 40s and early 50s, but may have to add some modern power to my stable.
Rich, thanks for the thoughts. Was a nice send off for mom. So many folks were there, I could hardly spend any time with anyone. Mom was very involved and much loved.
Well, time for bed. I hope that everyone has a blessed week ahead.
Dennis
Howdy guys -- good luck Rich, hope something works out for you
Well, today I didn't do anything really - just lazed around watching a movie (UP!) with the kids, then some other shows, played some videogames, played a board game, and watched The Real Ghostbusters with the kids too. We played Empire Builder, which is a board game, kinda like monopoly with trains - it was pretty fun and took about 3 hours for 2 people, but we were looking up the rules a lot this time. I'll give it two
Tardis is ready and I see a lot of guys on the scope, so let's hit it
Good evening
Chief that is the exact formula we use for pot hole mix only without the butter.
Really lazed today, spent the morning chatting with Brutus and the afternoon watching TV. I did take a nap while the Lions were losing. I won't mention that Bugs Bunny and Daffy were on all afternoon too. Hardly ever see them anymore. Much better than the junky stuff shown these days. Still have banilla for the thingy so come on by...S.J.
Rich,
Thanks. It is good to know that the interview went well.
Chief,
Are you sure that the grits aren't what really sliced your finger?
It looks like nobody else is awake yet. I am up early due to spring registration. I'll check back in later.
50 and calm here today going up to 58. Not much going on here, just teaching kidos.
Sf,
Good morning all,
It is cloudy and will be rainy in SE Indiana with temps in the 50s. Sorry I was MIA this weekend, but I could not sign on to the forum form the home PC. It was a busy weekend as well. The "saucy wench" and I went to Chili's Friday night for a nice supper and then watched "Numb3rs", which was good as always. Saturday was extra busy. I cleaned up the loft in the barn (longer than I expected), swept out three of the vehicles, washed and waxed the truck, and worked on the leaves with the "saucy wench" and Lucas. We only have two trees with leaves on them and maybe with a little luck, they will blow somewhere else. If not, there is not that much left anyway. Also, the chief of police came to our house Saturday to put up some fans in the back room for us. As he puts it, he won't be police chief forever and he has done lots of work for us in the past. Saturday night we were going to go to the movies, but Lucas said he would rather stay home and visit with us, which was also fine. I smoked 'em at Yahtze. Sunday all three of us went to Mass, and then visited with my dad. He showed us various family heirlooms he had stored in his foot locker. Lucas and I put up the outside Christmas lights since the weather was so nice. Then I rested. We played some UNO before Lucas left and then watched "Desperate Housewives". I had the regular fare on the dining car for breakfast this morning before sending it on to "Points East". Chief......ouch! Dennis, movie sounds interesting. TBIL, and I can drive as I missed the rotation Saturday and Sunday. I hope everyone has a good day.
Keep on training,
Mike C. from Indiana
Mike C. I was the same situation last night as my computer dropped all passwords from its memory and then I couldn't get into CTT as they were doing scheduled maintenance what got me I saw no word of it on the forum front page.
Morning all have leaves to rake today so thats always fun (NOT)
Time for breakfast so later
Morning all. Dropped off our son at school and in a short while, the daughter's turn. Have to bring the wife's van in for service as we will be heading to HotLanta next week for "Thanksgiving" dinner with in laws. I am on call for the big day, so we will do it a week early.
Regarding the movie, it is the story of three P.O.s who strive to be real men and real fathers to their kids. Lots of twists. I am not sure that we will have any train related scenes, but I will try to get one in there.
Have some things I have to get taken care of on the Honey Do list. Perhaps a little layout therapy is in order.God Bless,Dennis
Good morning
Overcast and wind feels cold.
I will be leaving soon with train buddy for breakfast and a trip to the train store. They broke up some Lionel NYC Flyer sets and they are holding an 0-8-0 for me. Thats the better one with more side rod action and train sounds. Enjoy your monday...S.J.
DJSpankyMornin' all! My last post for a while. Got the news late yesterday that my dad did a header down the stairs and is in ICU at St. Joe's in Paterson. I'm heading out later today to return to NJ and help out my mom for the week, but I won't have internet access up there. Too bad - I have some more pics to add to my viaduct thread. They'll have to wait. Tyler's very upset with me leaving - he came down 3 times int he middle of the night last night.I hope everyone has a good week.
