Good evening all,

Team played well but lost 3-0 tonight to end regular season.  Tourney starts next Tuesday.   Good days at work the past 2 days.   Watched Arrow last night.  Weather is supposed to be awful for Halloween.  I hope everyone has a good day.

Keep on training,

Mike C. from Indiana

Boo y'all!  My last night shift on All Hallow's Eve.  After 3 decades, the most memorable one was locking up the Devil for toking outside a pub.  She was cute.  Laugh  I like cruising through some of the neighborhoods, some of which go all out for decorations.  Other than that, just picking up bodies (manackins mostly) off the road.

Morning all.  Went east and hunted.  Does and turkeys showed.  Was real tired walking back to 4 Runner.  I just hit the road home instead of staying at camper.  Slept better at home and slept until 8:30.  Think the RMSF is still holding me down.

Charlie, sure looks good to me.  Especially after rut.  Means they have passed on their genes.

Have a "ghoul" one.  Don't let the goblins get you.

Happy Halloween all,

Rain forcast for tonight into tomorrow but hopefully will be after the trick or treaters are done.  Got all my outdoor things covered up for the rain and am all set.  That usually means, either it won't rain at all or it will rain just enough to mess up the cars.

Glad they caught that idiot in Pennsylvania who shot the police officer.  Hope they throw the book at him.

Chief, how'd you like that video of the buck with so many points it was hard to count.  That one looks like a keeper to me.

Kids parading  by our house this morning on way to nearby school all dressed for Halloween.  Couple of astronauts just went by.  Brings back memories of trick or treating when we were kids.  It was our best chance to get a lot of candy all year.  Probably what caused me a lot of dental problems later on but it was fun.

Boo!

Ray

Happy Halloween!

51 and Cloudy in Central NJ. At Mom's today. A little early for the Trick or Treaters. Heading for a little vacation next week to Orlando, Florida. Leaving wednesday coming back Monday.

Fife: Doray had the injections tom her knees. It helped a little but she had to have them both replaced. She had them done in January and she is doing well. Good Luck with it.

Brent: You seem to get hurt on almost every project that you do. I hope it heals quick.

Don: Glad that your son is doing good.

SPMan, Ray, Hope the Accurpuncture helps your wife. Hopefully Midge gets back to you quickly and the part is correct.

Enjoy Halloween.

John

So tomorrow is November 1, which means I gotta get started on the 2 layouts I promised for grandson and nephew.  One is loosely based on PRR in southeast PA, including a Harley Shop and CAT plant.  The other is based on the area around Bear Creek/Bethlehem Steel.  I already bought the Lionel Swing Bridge (6-24111).  It is big (40 inches end-to-end).  It is heavy.  Not sure how my sister will "receive" this monster.        Hee.

Evening all....

  It's that time of year again...the time when i get to take off the mask.Clown

Rainy and cool today.  There's a chance that we will wake up to snow.  No

Took a break from the layout plan to build some telephone poles.  The single crossbar types with 6 insulators are relatively quick to assemble.  More time consuming are the telegraph types with 3 or 4 crossbars with 10 or 12 insulators each.  You find they're on short poles where there's no need to clear obstacles and raised over highways and such.   They're commonly found along the right of way and are probably the type I'll need the most of.

Have a frightful night

WAKE UP BUMS!!!!!!  Mayor is off to the Rolesville Harvest Day with venders and FREE hotdogs.  Then tonight, Reds Art Museum [R'ville HS art class has our old Town Hall for a museum] is having an art sale for a scholarship in the name of our young football player that suddenly died during warm up practice.

Cold and rainy but not as bad as forecasted so far.  Snowhio in the mountains.  Wow, early this year.

Brent, count your fingers and your toes. Whistling

Have a great day.

Good morning all,

Had a larger than usual bunch of trick or treaters last night.  Rain held off until later.  It showered a little last night off and on but no big rain yet.  However, it was enough to  water the lawn and mess up the cars.  No mudslides reported in burned areas so far.  That's good!

Happy All Saints Day!
