Good evening all,
Very quiet day at work. Projects outside the house start tomorrow. Will be glad when they are completed. Weather was very nice. Picked up sticks outside. I hope everyone has a good day.
Keep on training,

Hello there Roy.....more progress on the ElCamino!!!! Buckeye & Charlie......lookn good. Fife what's your ETA Sunday? Registered on 2 different locations for Wuhan vaccine. Could have scheduled March 29 but the 2nd shot would fall when we're at the beach. Gonna keep trying, maybe get them on either side of the beach trip. Nothing else exciting here. Got the dishwasher in and running. Replaced the top basement step that ties in to the kitchen floor. Took a couple of tries to get the shellac color right. It was pretty well worn and I'd glued splits in it years ago. The rest of the steps need replaced too, next project. Started flooring today. A PITA to get it straight. Hope the rest gets better. Best get to sleep. Prayers for those in need and the end of this pandemic

Good morning!
Cloudy and looks like it will stay cloudy/overcast for next 5-6 days with rain for the weekend. However - low 70's
Throat/swallowing therapy today. Two more sessions after this one - one per week.
Regards, Roy
Mornin' boys. Partly sunny and 61 along the Patterson Creek cut-off. I too just came back from Doc visit/Lab work. Nasty heel spur thingie got me hobbling" around.
chief - Here's hoping nothing on the snippy thingies.
Roy - Cheering you all the way across the finish line.
Good afternoon!!
Not much going on here, I had to jump through some hoops to get in.

Prayers for Roy and for Fife's heal spur to get better....
We made an appointment for a portrait style engagement photo, we won a session, so we'll get a 11X14 print.
That is all.................

Good day at work. Pain 2 was out of office all this week. Even though I do not physically interact with her any more, she can make like "interesting". Work is going well on first outdoor project. Same guys that did garage door last year. They do good work at a reasonable price. Cannot ask for anything more. Weather again good outside. I hope everyone has a good day.

Good Morning -
Last night's Line/Exec meeting was quick and painless and out by 7:40.
I went over to have dinner with Jenni, did the dishes and watched a Don Garlits Documentary "Close Calls" - amazing how he missed getting killed OFF the track....
64F today and Sunny - the was a bit of a breeze.
My 3 feral cats, the birds and the squirrels were fed - I hand fed 3 of the squirrels, now that it's warmer.
Off to work -
65 and sunny. Beautiful day. undefined Middle 70's guessed.
Rich so what happens if we don't pay. Do we get blocked from this forum. Or does that include online for the magazine also. I have seen nothing about this.
Found it.
Okay, I'm still studying it though.
Afternoon all!
Cloudy and warm as predicted. Nothing to report today. Have a good one all!
Ah, a fun afternoon fixing a leaky toilet. Went pretty well, it only took two trips to the hardware store. Usually when I've got a project it takes three!
Got license tags renewed. Quiet day at work. Weather warm and dry. I do not have much else going on. I hope everyone has a good day.

Mornin' boys. Cloudy and 46 in the Potomac Highlands. Temps in the 60's this week, so I placed the palm tree out front on a dolly, so I can wheel it into the garage on cold nights. Bathroom remod coming along slowly, however the Nurture Green is definitely a Wifey pick. Woof. And she poo-pooed my buffalo-head tp holder idea.
However, the joint compound applications to the new layout scenery have turned out nice.
We're headed up to visit FifeMom today. Need to sort out final arrangements...
Banks - I won't be there Sunday.
60 and racing towards 77 guessed. Sunny [guessers saying rain most of next week, maybe not a lot].No sleep. 4 AM and shoulder killing me. Lay in bed till 6. Took Tramadol and went back to sleep. 7:30 Lucy get up and jumps down. Goes to backdoor and barks continuously. Mom was out with the rest of the crew. Had to get up and let her out. Coffee is good. Shoulder is hurting. MyCharted Dr. Think something else going on. Probably from having to steer tractor without power steering. Had to fight steering wheel and hold one wheel brake to get it back under shelter. FLOWER BEDS!!Implants at 3.
If they start the pay for forum use, I WILL BE GONE.
Started the Coffee Pot April 1 almost 17 years ago. Will be a shame. Also, will not renew my subscription.

Same here, but I haven't heard that's in the offing. I'll cross that bridge when I come to it.

Hey all!
A tiny bit of sun - extreme winds - 70's...
The Mrs has a followup eye surgery today so I will be the driver. The clinic is on the other side of town and the procedure is 1.5 hrs. No one other than patients allowed in the building. There is a Lowes and HD close by so I may engage in some 'window shopping'. Gotta book if I can find a nice place to sit (other than the car).
After a couple of really windy days with nice weather, today is windy and colder!
Good Evening,
Its been awhile, no issues, just havent got around to posting. Have spent quite a bit of time in the train room, serviced over 50 engines, greased, oiled, cleaned wheels, rollers, etc.. Took over a week or two. Also decided to electrify some shelves that have passenger trains stored on them. Looking pretty good, IMO.
Kay and I are doing well, got both of the Covid shots, (got the enhanced version with WIFI and Blue Tooth). Even with a lot of the restrictions being relaxed, I think we will continue to use caution with out activities.
Actually, did go to a train "meet" in a parking lot a couple of weeks ago. It was well organized and set up, plenty of space between vendors and everyone was masked. It went pretty well and was fun.
Glad everyone is doing well, so take care all! and be safe! Prayers for those in need!
REALLY GLAD to hear Roy is doing so well, Thank Gosh all that is behind you!
Don
It would be a shame if we had to pay to post. I would drop out as well, unfortunately and I have been around here before dirt was new. Enough to do at work to keep me busy but not overwhelming. Awning is up over the service doors to the pole barn and lean to. Not sure if they are done done, but what is done looks nice. Wet weather today. Did some errands after work. Ribs are feeling better. Just have to take it easy. I hope everyone has a good day.
Sunny but normal temps are back over the next week so it will be on the cool side again.
Good to see you Don! Glad all is well. We are in the vaccine desert here. Guess they want to do all the places where the density is? I agree better safe than sorry.
Kids are planning a surprise party for wifey tomorrow but I think she already knows.

Kev, From The North Bluff Above Marseilles IL.
Just got back from PT for the foot. Meds are working on the soreness. Will be headed up the mountain after dinner to tend to FifeMom. My sister is staying there until the end. Tough times.
Thanks for checking in, Shake-and-Bake. I was thinking of you.
Banks - Nothing scheduled for the Fairgrounds. I tried to get our chapter interested in doing an outside train "flea market", but that was met with tumble weeds.
There's a part of me that wants to seek out Howard Zane to learn how to organize my own train show in my region. I think it would work with the right venue. I don't know....
As before - cloudy, overcast, but warm! Storms predicted for tomorrow night.
Mrs. eye procedure went smooth. Apparently after cataract lens replacement (done years ago) a film can grow on the backside of the lens, so they have to use a laser to blast it off.
Been taking it easy the last few days. Got the '09 Tahoe in for service and state inspection yesterday. Oil change, Takata air bag replacement, deep clean of exterior and interior, wax, and the door ding trim (frt passenger door) replaced. Tahoe is black. All new door ding trim is white - so they have to paint it. They will get that done and I will take it back in Mon or Tues for them to install it.
Fife - prayers for your mom
80 degrees. I'm here. Been in meetings all morning. how to HD to get big round bails of pine straw. SIL's chicken dinner later.Enjoy.
Howard Zane????? Don't recognize the name. A show in your area should do well. There used to be one in Bedford. It was usually the same weekend as fall York so dealers were few. It disappeared several years ago.
