Hello there,

TGIF!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Work is calming a bit. It took a couple tries but I got a circulation pump to qquit leaking. Feels much better with a bit of heat in the house.

Sposed t rain all day tomorrow so it willbe an inside catch up on sleep day I hope. Last Hillclimb of the season on Sunday

Banks, the corn & bean crop here is great, price, not so much. BTW nice haul on the bay. Since wife retired my train budget is in the hole. Crying

That's something I worry about. Obamacare will probably force me to make a career change instead of retiring completely. I do have enough stuff to build a couple layouts allready. Shouldn't need to buy much.

The 259E and cars came the other day. Better shape than I hoped. It needs a new pickup assembly (saw that in the pictures) I'll try to find one at the Altoona Show next Sunday. If not I'm sure to find one at York.

Phish.........my ElCamino is a Malibu. 307 with a 2 speed Torque Flight or Torque Glide. (can't remember which) I added an Quadrajet intake and carb from a 327 not long after I got it. It was the only vehicle Mrs and I had for several years.

Son's corn is done. Very small crop.

Fife ......bet it's bittersweet demoing the layout. Bet you're gonna mis the grandson after the move.

Struggling to keep my eyes open. Off t join Mrs in bed

 

Prayers for those in need

Good evening all,

Quiet day at work as pain two was gone.   Got some unpleasant news as our win Tuesday was voided by the league due to an email snafu not sending notices out.   That happened Tuesday so why did they wait until Friday to do something about it?????   I think I am done with the fall league......   I hope everyone has a good day.

Keep on training,

Mike C. from Indiana

Hello all

Well the opening and dedication of the new building went well yesterday. Even #135 did her bit and ran well and broke the ribbon.

Everything pretty much out of the trailer now exceot the cleaning stuff. Was hoping to be done w/ that by now but the opening took a lot of my time.

Jim - motorhome has both tanks, will only be using the graywater tanks

Banks - GM called them the Powerglide, there's one in the '65 4dr

Helped Bill bring down his '31 Dodge 4dr sedan to the building for the show on Friday. That was fun. Did have to pull it a ways as the fuel system seems to be blocking up. Since it is down here for a bit I will have a look under it. Bill can't see much when it is dark.

Need to make a list of stuff I need for the plumbing and then head back to the trailer and grab a few more things.
