Morning. Sunny and 63. Pretty day. Will have what will probably the last lowest night temp until fall/winter. 40 degrees forecasted. Will cover potted tomatoes and peppers. Took them out of the greenhouse as so warm out. Flint, local biggie station is NBC. They are just as bad. Back injection this afternoon. Gives me an excuse to be lazy for three days,. Stay safe and well.

MikeC - grocery shopping takes twice as long, as I stand there and try to figure out what alternative to what we normally buy...with the TP it's easy...grab one of whatever they got!

Good evening all,
Busier than expected at work. Weather cool and cloudy. Did some more running around getting items. You buy what you can when you can find on certain items. I hope everyone has a good day.
Keep on training,

Spent the better part of the day in the train room, "fencing". Built a farm fence for a pasture, and a garden fence for the river front. Painted some O-scale figures, and planted a little foliage.
Then I sat down and transcribed the perfect Woo-han defeatin' song, Beer Can't Fix (Thomas Rhett). Am-D-G-Em. Don't get any easier, or better than that.
Stay frosty my friends.
ChiefEagles Sun came out. NBC News should be shut down. Its serious but they make it worse.

The way it is Chief. I don't have a problem with our local paper and news coverage here in VA, but the national press? Forget it! "All coronavirus, all the time!"
Stands to reason. A few months ago it was "All impeachment, all the time!"
Remember 1995? "All O.J., all the time!"
Pack of lemmings. The fact that other things keep happening means nothing.
Thank God for toy trains!
No April Fools joke but a truckload of tp burned up in Dallas.
Wonder if people were out trying to find any leftovers ?

Mornin' boys. Cloudy and 42 along the Patterson Creek cut-off. Spent a good bit of time in the train room, painting and laying down ground foam in the railroad tie plant. Installed the faux siding, to which I used an old O-scale 2-rail straight (guessing Atlas?), fixing it in place with both ends out of viewer's sight.
Evening All,
Happy April Fool's Day, just doesn't feel right to do any April Fool's stuff.
I'm really concerned about the health care workers, especially the nurses. Not taking anything away from the Drs, but the nurses have so much patient contact. Sure hope this changes soon! Announced this evening that Ca is suppose to be at the peak around April 26.
Difficult to watch much news, it is so discourging, so I've been busy working in the backyard. Will post a couple of pictures tomorrow, Any thoughts about a special thread or just put it here?
Chris had an interesting thing with the FJ Cruiser. He went somewhere and left it here, I couldn't get it to turn over, thought a dead battery. Found out the ground cable broken between the battery and grounding point on fender. Never seen that before! What happened is the mounting plate under the battery is plastic and has two eyelets that the top battery strap is secured to by a couple of hooks that go to the plate. The eyelets in the plate broke, resulting in the battery bouncing around only being held in place by the cable. So it ended up breaking! So going to see what we can do about securing the battery. I assume the "plastic" tray that the battery sits on is to prevent corrision from occuring on the metal plate. I think we can resolve it WITH the plastic tray and relocating the securing point on the metal plate. (Hope that all made sense.)
Finally, good news is that the weather has been really great. Kay and I have been bike riding and it has been very enjoyable.
Take care all
Don
wrmcclellan Hmmmm...April already....
Hmmmm...April already....
Thank goodness, March just dragged.
Woke up this morning to a sniveling, hysterical day that just couldn't make up it's mind what kind of a day it wanted to be. Struck while the iron was hot and cut the grass and whacked the weeds. Finished just in time, the day finally decided to be a rainy one around 3:00 this afternoon.
Stay healthy everyone!
April fool. Was my sister's birthday. She sure took a lot of kidding over the year.
But on to important things. You notice Da Chief is going to bed earlier each month.
