Jack,
Congrats on the three years.
Brent,
If it makes you feel any better, I have not started yet either.
Okay, I think my AF addiction has reached a new level. Last night, I saw a 481 Silver Flash diesel with diesel roar on the bay, but I was hesitant to buy. I need the roar generator and dynamic speaker from it to complete a 491 Northern Pacific B unit. I had myself talked out of the 481 until it really started to bother me at work this morning. So, I used my half hour lunch break to make the normally 15 minute (each way) drive home to buy it, and headed back. I got back to work with a few minutes to spare, and I never thought that would've been possible with the sunfire.
Good afternoon,
Weather has let up a little here, Sun was out for a few minutes, but now has clouded up again. Must have gotten several inches here, don't know for sure.
Typing this on my computer at the TCA library, surrounded by lots of train goodies.
Have a good day.
Lunch time at work, raining but in the 50's. I had 2 conference calls this morning. We are busy here and it looks like we will be even busier next year. We are short 16 people, there is a hiring freeze and the OT is being cut. What else is new, same old story but we are working Saturdays. Enough about work.
Doug, I remember that story about Percy and the scarf.
SJ, Remember, They are always right. Don't even bother to tell them.
Christmas Layout, My whole side of the family is comong here for Christmas Eve. I have a young neice and nephew who have never been at my house at Christmas. It is going to be 2 loops around the tree with plenty of assesories.
Thoughts and prayers for all in need.
John
Hello all
Laz, only saw four and they were too far away. Try again Saturday
Wayyyy too much rain yesterday and over night. Snow flurries now. Some flooding in the usual places.
Promised Mrs I'd get the new front door on before Christmas. Started measuring last night.(It's been in "HER" room since August "09)
Best get some lunch and back to work(Chief and others need the SS)
Prayers for all that need them

Good morning all,
It's been a few days since I posted. I've been busy at work and with chores around the house. It is cold today and it feels great. The Christmas layout we put under the tree is very simple: a loop of O27 tubular with a PA Steam/Passenger train running around it. I used bunting material to simulate snow and we have one building down so far, a gas station. I hope to add some more building this weekend - I believe some Plasticville structures would make it more nostalgic for me.
Back to work for now.
Regards,
Joe
Mornin' Fellas... already Dec 1st! Criminie!Jack - Not sure I needed to know you've been on the Pot for 3 years! Sounds like you need to visit a GI Specialist! Still haven't gotten around to building the Christmas Layout... heck I haven't even started! Maybe tomorrow since I've got the morning off and working from home in the afternoon... no commute = more time to do fun stuff!Laz - sounds like a nice deer! Saw one a few mornings back walking in someone's backyard. Had to be a big one because of his size and the distance I was from him. Also didn't have a problem seeing his rack from my distance either - so had to be big!
Morning all lunch time right now here at work so figure get a post in and say hi.
been missing the tardis at night my beacon keeps going out.
Hope all haveing a good week time to get back to work talk to you all later.

Good Morning again
Ah a better menu this time, I'll have everything but the grits. Granny dragged me off to Sears this morning, told her it won't open till 10 but I don't know anything, so we waited 20 minutes to get in. I took a walk. Cold and windy, lite snow flurries floatin around. If it's warmer where you are,enjoy.
It is Snohiozoning in SE Indiana. Just wanted to post on the first page of the Pot for December. By tomorrow morning, there will be several pages.
Keep on training,

Aloha. Where is everyone? Snowing here. Congratulations on your Pot anniversary, Jack. Whoops, I mean anniversary on the Pot, um I mean. oh I give up. Hope everyone feels better soon in your neck of the woods, Charlie. Ran Thomas last night. Need to find a scarf for Percy. SJ reminds me I have to set something up around the tree - what will it be this year? Dennis, hope those winds and possible tornado weren't around your abode.

Lets try this again. Told me I had to be logged in to post and I was logged in. Then wipped out my post.
Hope all have a great month of December and God bless.
PS: worked this time
Had storms all around. We got .3 inches of rain. No storms. Went to sleep in the recliner at 10 AM. Got up around 1:30 AM and crashed in the bed. Slept late. Feel great now. Just what I needed. Lazy day for me [I hope]. Hope to get the NS Genset going. Need to clean track and whole layout. Have not run trains in over two months. Later
