Slept till 9 AM [woke hurting 2 times but went back to sleep after a few]. Was 50 degrees and now 53. Real breezy and sunny. What a change.

Marty - Nice car. Does the hobo disappear on that version?
Decided today there is only one way to slow down a 1 year old belgian malinois. Have her chase the grandson on the dirt bike for a half hour.
Kids are keeping us running! Can't understand why they need a spring break when they have not been in class all year?

Afternoon all!
Waitin' for the start of NASCAR/Bristol/Dirt...missed the truck race earlier as I forgot about it.
Cleaned the back porch and furniture yesterday and grillled some chicken.
Nice day here.
Dougsnotta - nice!
Regards, Roy

Probably more like a break for the teachers
Good Evening,
Watched the re-scheduled Nascar from Bristol, enjoyed both races, espically the Cup cars! (Roy, the truck race is being broadcast on FS2 later tonight).
Kev, Thats a big dog, looks like he is full of energy! The kids must enjoy him!!
Doug, Glad to see the museum is back, your engines looked really great!
Weather was really great this weekend, up to 80 yesterday, and upper 70's today! All is well.
Take care all and be safe!

fifedog Marty - Nice car. Does the hobo disappear on that version?
No. I can remove him, not sure about the fire. I'm not even 100% sure he is supposed to be able to be removed or he just fell off in shipping. LOL!

Warming fast. 56 degrees. Sunny. High 70's.Take JD mower to the JD place for estimate to do some repairs. [use to do myself] May just trade it.Disk garden again and do some potato rows. Wifey doing some USDA/NCSU Extension stuff on varieties. Have a good one.
Evenin' boys. Sunny & 71 in the Potomac Highlands. Dodge is in the shop for a mysterious vibration. Top wrench determined rotors bad all around. Took new momma princess to breakfast for scooping me up. Being a captive serf, I was directed to hang some new doodads inside, and spread mulch outside. Dinner consisted of burgers and burgundy.
Good evening all,
Made a whole bunch of improvements in one process at work. Should have done some of them a long time ago. Got the skin checked today. Spot I had them look at was ok, but they did a biopsy on another, just to be careful. Weather was good today, turns to junk the rest of the week. I found out some more info about the website. I just hope it is true. I hope everyone has a good day.
Keep on training,

Good morning from the Valley,
Snow is heading our way.
About 80% complete with this area of the layout. Still need to pave the road, build a fence, add more ground, install floor in barn, wire lights and swing, add people and details. Does anyone know how to make a mailbox for the house?

Was sunny and now clouds moving in. Afternoon rain. Was just 70 degrees but dropped to 69.
Enjoy your day.
Buckeye - Check around; LEMAX sells mailboxes from time-to-time as accessories.
We are in for two more cold days, low 40s for highs and high 20s at night. Then we head to the mid 70s all of next week. Burning off the last of the wood stacked on the porch. No rain in site and that is strange for this time of year here?
Dennis, I found the scenery was the most fun of building the layout.
Kids want us to go to a big Easter thing but wife said "NO" not till we both have both shots. I agree. Been this long, may as well do it right. Our neighbor's wife is in the hospital with bad COVID issues she is in her early 60s, so it ain't over yet kids!
Pension pay day tomorrow, got to get starter fertilizer for down at the creek, and some other stuff at Menards and a trip to Krogers to fill out the day.
Going to order out Fried Chicken for tonight.
Later.
Happy Hump Day
Took a trip to Manahawkin last night for Jenni's Mom's birthday. Got there at 9, left at 1030, home by midnight. Jenni's niece and nephew were there and that made her night better. It was a good time.
Current Street Light project working well, my 3V wall wart power source is working very nicely. Downside was I had to use a thicker wire as the thinner wire wouldn't strip properly. I have 2 more lights to do, then make snow and snow piles, which I'll be using Buffalo Snow batting, spray snow and plaster casting with a rock mould, which I'll smooth out and apply to the side of the roads and buildings. After Easter, I should have more time to spend on the layout. I'll be taking a day on the 5th for a full day doctor visit and then a day for trains, TBD.
Raining now and 61F - clears up tomorrow night -
My brother and SIL are in from Texas for Easter. Should be a nice family gathering for the week.
That's all for now.

Yes it is!
Sunny and warming after the front went through day before yesterday. Very nice out today!
The new R4LC for the DC Commander set I ordered from ERR was defective. Contacted Scott Mann and he had another sent out immediately. Great service! Said to return the defective one when possible. So had to put the 4-6-0 Bachman G Ga repair aside.
Buckeye - lookin' good!
