Morning all. Not a lot going on here. Rain last night was a flood you would think. Suppose to get more today.
Hope all have a good day

Good evening all,
Sorry for the non-post on Friday. Work was good on Friday and weather was better for walk. Mowed the yard with the big mower. Grass was tall and took over 2 hours Friday night. Came inside, sat in chair and fell asleep. Wife woke me up at 11:30 to go to bed. Got up at 7 AM on Saturday to go watch grandson's baseball games. The team lost both games, but was more competitive than last week. Indy 11 won again. Foyt team at back of pack again. I hope everybody has a good day.
Keep on training,
Mike C. from Indiana
Evening all!
95 today and showers. Cooled off a bit. Slightly below normal temps for next week. 95 avg, normally 98.

Hot and humid here. Heat index in the 100+. Only .25 inches of rain all week. Been watering.
Had to replace ignition switch in 97 Silverado. Cranked it and had code. No tach, no speedometer and no shift indicator. Fuse fine. Truck ran on in drive. Fixed now.
Still on tick meds. Have specialist appointment Wed.
Have a good one.

Hello there,
no TGIF this week. Gotta go back to reality tomorrow.
Been a busy week at the beach. SIL chartered a fishing boat this PM. Spent 4 hours in the bay. Caught several flounder but no keepers.
Doog good luck with the surgery.
Best get t bed. Gotta pack and be left by 10AM.
Dougnotta - guess that is good news - prayers for you!
Mornin' All !
No trains doin's of late. Spent some time yesterday with the Marquis de Sade, a.k.a. a physical therapist. I sure wouldn't want to make that gal angry, I'm sure she could really put a hurt on ya.
The week before last discovered an almost baseball size mass/lump/or something. First thought was that the cancer had returned, but thankfully it turned out to be a hernia. Not that a hernia is fun but it beats the h*** out of a cancer diagnosis. Should be meeting with the surgical staff next week to set a date for a repair job.
Later all.

Morning all!
A very toasty 82 already this morning. 95 today. Full sun
fifer - stay cool!
Phish - good luck with the feeder!
Mike C - hope the intestinal issue is resolved?
Mornin' boys. Overcast and 72 along the Patterson Creek cut-off. Yesterday was so humid, that when I stepped onto the platform to punch tickets, it looked like a sprinkler went off in my hat. Embarrassing. The evening CinJ train was better, but very light. I looked more like Santa Garcia...
Same schedule today, but a little cooler temps.
That is why I subscribe to MR and Trains to get a train "fix" every month during the CTT bimonthly time period. Work was good today, but had some more intestinal issues. Recovered enough to show up for game. Our contest was the only one not forfeited among the 4 scheduled, but we only had 7 players so maybe we should have spared the energy. I played well again so it was not a total waste. I hope everyone has a good day.
Good Afternoon from toasty 90°F Southern Ohio,
I’ve been crazy busy at work and at home this week. I’m off the next few days and have several Honey Do’s in the que. A high priority will be to make another chicken feeder. The broiler chicks (AKA eating machines) are emptying the feed trough several times a day. I made one last year but it is in the coop with the laying hens. And there is some painting, replacing a photocell on the outside light post, more boxes to unload and hopefully get the train boxes moved. We’re going to go get the youngest from Church Camp tomorrow. From the Facebook postings she seems to be having a great time.
About time for shift change and a shower.
May God bless
Jim
Afternoon all!
95 right now. Toasty out as we say!
It's approaching 5 o'clock if ya know what I mean
CTT - yep, seems like a long gap in the summer - and you seem to get the July issue in May....
Doc appts today followed by a "haircut" - or what I call subsidizing those with hair. I wait as long as possible between "cuts" to somewhat get my money's worth.
RT your probably right I checked and have July. It sure seems like a long time between though.
Morning all.
S.J. I believe they don't do August. You should be getting September soon thou.
Rain overnight, Hi of 88 today.
We needed rain but it's coming as storms instead of a nice steady rain.
No train news. just enjoying summer as the days get shorter already..lol
If there's a new CTT out there I still haven't got one.
S.J.
My best game in a long, long time went for naught as we were outmanned most of the game. I had more touches tonight than the whole season combined and for one game I think I got some respect from the team. It felt good. Work went well today and there is not much to catch up on. Weather was hot. I hope everyone has a good day.
95 right now. High 90's rest of the week. Summer has showed up!
Lawn looks good for first time in 10 years. Had enough rain this spring and with lakes full allowed to water the lawn twice a week this summer.
So Fifer - summer, a red suit, "sandy claws"?
a whole day yesterday with no posts????
Vacation continues. Salisbury Zoo and Toy Town yesterday (4 new in box Tyco cars,cheap. They were there last trip but I passed ) then a couple hours at the pool. .hot tub.
Photos when I take time to figure out Shutterfly.
Fife.....seems a little early for Christmas. Bet you're not the conducter this weekend.
Best move on.
Mornin' boys. Partly sunny and 71 in the Potomac Highlands. In a little while will be headed into work to help decorate Frostburg station for Christmas. Care to guess my "role" this weekend...?
Steak, (crab)cake and tonight.
91/92 today but still 91 at 9 pm and 87 at 10 pm. 95 tomorrow.
Mike C - glad you made it back OK.
Nothing to report tonight.
Made it home today. Ran into heavy around Cincinnati area. Indiana has been pounded by rain all this week so far. Fields were too wet to play tonight. Back to work tomorrow. I hope everyone has a good day.
Made better time today. Only 6 hours from Wilmington to Princeton, WV. I hope everyone has a good day.
Weather as predicted today. 91 and sunny. Low humidity, but that changes starting Wed.
I have had good luck with Chevy's and the rust issue. But here in the south we do not have road salt all winter long. My 2001 GMC Silverado 1500 is going strong. The only body image issues caused by me...
Banks - you traveled how far to take a nap?
2nd day at the beach. Went to 7.15 mass yesterday then spent most of the day napping before joining family at a seafood buffet. Today we spent a few hours surf fishing now fixing to go purchase some adult beverage and relax for the evening.
Kev.....nice ride!!!!
Fife. ..lot's o yatchets on the bay when we crossed on Saturday. Layout is lookin good.
Happy Monday,
I hope this new truck does better than my other Chevys. It seems every new Chevy I have ever had was already rusting in the showroom. The 1978 LUV, gone in 8 years the 1986 S-10, gone in 9 years and the Silverado rusting in 6 years. My Dakota made 11 years before the rust came through and that was bottom of the doors and the front edges of the front fenders, 160K on it. Best ever mileage was just once it got 17.1 MPG on a trip to Florida. It drove nice and pulled well but loved the gas.
68 and Steady rain since about 4:00am, at times hard, we needed some but go figure. Yesterday afternoon I sprayed 9 gallons of round-up on the drive and lane. I hope it had enough time to take.
Not sure what I am doing today. Going to head north on Wednesday till Sunday to help Mark with hooking up that 500 gallon LP tank and some other stuff I think.
Grand-son loved the new truck. Thought I got it for his birthday.
I spent all the time there setting up Katie's new Laptop for her. I thought these kids were supposed to know how to do all that stuff?

Dennis - that's hot. Hear you are setting some records in CA...
Hey all. Kevin tell Jordan Happy Birthday.
72 heading to 90 with humidity and sweat is the call today. Glad I got some stuff done outside yesterday.
Grandson Jordan's real birthday today. I think we will be going out to eat at Mickie D's.
Maybe install that new Faucet today if Brain feels like it.
