Morning All:

    Finally got a job interview tomorrow!! Out of work since january. Hope this comes through and I can put this part of my life behind me.                                                                                                                        Steve

Good luck Steve.  Hope it works out.  Praying it will.  It is bad when people want to work and can't get a job or are disabled.  Then there are those [not like you] who ride the government.  Again, good luck.

Good Morning

A nice week forecast, 70s all the way.

Big breakfast of eggs, bacon, hash browns and toast. I got the grass cut yesterday so need to change the oil in grannys car and we will wax it together, I told her this week while it's nice. I may have to prod a little. Nice picture of the chief but I noticed he did not post the "after" with the tar and feathers...S.J.

Morning All:

    Finally got a job interview tomorrow!! Out of work since january. Hope this comes through and I can put this part of my life behind me. Was looking at my 671 turbine yesterday. If I get this job I think I will have it professionly repainted/restored. Shes 60 years old and runs like it did when I was a little kid, and thats a long time ago. Beautiful day here in dirty jerz, catch ya later.

Aloha all. Amen to what you said, Jon. Beautiful day here - began in the 40s... Soccer practice with the youngest last eve - he would've enjoyed meeting that striped critter. Having guests Friday means will have to spiff up the basement sometime this week to show off the layout.

What a beautiful Sept. 1 in the Heartlands   Temps in the mid 50's with no humidity, I know the farmers are hoping for some more warm weather to fill out the soy beans.  Without a doubt I think two of the nicest months of the year are Sept. & Oct., I'd like to be on the road travelling but that's probably not going to happen this month with the birth of our Grandson.  I sure hope it's soon as his Mom is really miserable and not sleeping much, our son was born Sept. 5---could it be the same birthday for his son?  that would be very cool.

I've been building more shelves for storage under the layout in the basement.  It's absolutely esential that nothing ever sits on the floor, I run a dehumidifer 24/7 down there along with central A/C and I'm still amazed at the water I dump out every day, even with low humidity outside.  At times I've cussed every basement in every house we've lived in but yet I can't imagine having a home without a basement, we are fortunate as train hobbyists to have the luxury of a basement---not everyone of us has that option.

I do the think the Chief looks very dapper today

Morning.  Up early compared to the time I went to bed.  Think the sun is out.  Had slow nice showers yesterday.  Got luncheon to attend today.  Grass mowing after that.  Wife is wanting to go to Gettysburg in Oct.  Will have to slip into Yankeeland for that one.  Mike C., wish I could run for a solid 50.  Everyone have a great day.

Good morning all,

IIABSDISEI with temps in the low 70s.  This is a rare event when I get to post on the first page of a coffeepot!  I went to soccer practice for the girls last night.  Basically stood around with the other helpers.  Did work with one of the newbies on throw-ins.  Got trash ready and picked up sticks in the yard.  Went to the YMCA and did weights.  Also did a slow jog for a half mile.  I have to get my "air" up for next season.  Not going to worry about time and speed reports at this point in time.  Running/jogging uses different muscles than walking so I have to get them in shape.  Need to be able to put in a solid 50 minutes of playing time and not be winded.   Ended the evening helping wife cut coupons.  Work went ok yesterday.  Turned my Buffy calendar over to September and "Cordy" was on the page.  My day is set for the next month!  I had the regular fare on the dining car.  Beacon is lit.  I hope everyone has a good day.

BTW, Laz, I enjoyed your pictures.  Looks like you had a good summer. 

Keep on training,

Mike C. from Indiana

Hi GYZ beauty here at 45 degrees for day 2 of school year.  Great start yesterday, no pile ups or I mean no problems. 

JIM, take that schoolin a little at a time, remember don't burn out.

DENNIS, I had to convert a MTH CAT sales to make the BUDDA BING,  Guess you can say I took one cat house and made it into another.  My girls needed a place to work at.

CHIEF, nice teller!

Stay safe,

Stay frosty,

Nice outfit there Chief!  Well, good Sept 1st and a cup of new Joe.  Didn't sleep well last night and son woke early this morning.  Guess I will go over his science book as he has a test this morning.  He should do well.

If I get home in a timely fashion today, will be doing a little organizing in the train room as I have to figure what scenery items and accessories I have so we can plan the next phase of the pike.  At least I will have some trains running.

Hope everyone has a great day!

God Bless,

dennis
