MORNING,,,,,,,I'm going to say TRAINS now because I'm not sure where I'm going with this. Sun's up and low 70s today, looks good.
Kurt- bow hunting season is here, I don't think that I would wear that mask out this time of year. however there are a few people I might loan one too.
Brutus-We have two cable co.s that offer package deals, but I just use this for entertainment and netzero is half the price. Although I will probably go that way sometime as disconnects are annoying and make me angry. Thats the nice way to say it.
Everyone play nice and I'll drop back later, Sir James

Good morning all,
IIABSDISEI with temps in the low 80s. Crisis in the house was narrowly averted as we realized Lucas needed to start on second paper for English instead of still working on the first one, for which he already had a grade. He obviously did not pay attention to the syllabus, and we had not seen it either. Details are lost on him. Maybe he will sit out a year before going to college. I went to the YMCA and did weights and some trackwork. Also watched Helio Castroneves on "Dancing with the Stars". I am hoping for a calmer night tonight, but I will probably not get it. Tmcc man, sorry to hear about the ACL. I hope the recovery goes well.
It was the (almost) usual this morning with cinnamon rolls and cereal on the dining car this morning, but the cinnamon rolls are slowly running out. I hope everyone has a good day.
Keep on training,
Mike C. from Indiana
'morning....(nope, it ain't good...yet)
Raining again here is paradise.

Nope. 'TO THE TRAINS' the one below.
Mornin' boys. Sunny & 60's here in the Mid-Atlantic region. CSX and Maryland are talking about new routes around Baltimore...too little too late. Coulda/shoulda been done back in the early 80's...
Good Morning from Blueberryhill....
It is a cool, but nice 62 degrees. Cloudy. Going up to 82 today, with partly sunny skies.
Today, I have a few errands to run. Then, working around the house. The scenery is beautiful here. Hate to see the leaves fall. I may run trains today. Need a break from the normal day.
Looking forward to the Train Show on Saturday. It will be nice to see all the OTTS folks again.
Dining car is here and serving breakfast. Later.
Y'all have a great Tuesday.
Chuck
Brutus,
you might want to check the phone lines when the power goes out as well. Even with my cable modem on a UPS, I lose network connectivity when the power fails in the Neighborhood. There is some gear somewhere in my neighborhood that drops like everything else. That's why God created cell phones, I guess.

This one?

Hey man, your what hurts? Snap out of what? If that 2343 gets any shinier, it will blind me when I look at it! I'm trying it out as my avatar. I have 2 choices that I'm deciding on.
This one:
The finest set of 2343s on the forum. Can you tell I'm proud?
And this one:
No real good reason to use the lion, other than it's on the wall in our train room, pointing to the trains. The kids want me to use this one.
Hey, Tom Brady and the Patriots put on a clinic in Ohio last night! All the Ohio teams combined don't have as many wins as the Patriots! Doh!!! What a pity!
Nice to speak with Keith W. of 1688 Torpedo fame last night. Geesh that guy can yack! I couldn't get a word in edgewise! He's pretty funny, too. Not as funny as Shemp telling Moe he's seeing gorillas, but funny. Nyuck nyuck nyuck...He tells me he's working on a flying Corvair!
Glad to hear that The Beav's hand surgery went well! "Gee Wally, it's all swollen and junk".
Morning!
Chief: Glad things went well with skin Dr.. Why even let non-residents speak?
Colin: Hang in there and tend to that knee. No BTS parties, or girl chasing for a bit. Work the sympathy angle and have them come to you!
Working on Christmas layout on paper. Looking at Woodland Scenics terrain for risers...3.5% is workable, but they only make 4%. Kids on opposite nap schedules, and youngest only sleeps 2-4 hours at a time each night...still
Morning all,
On nights and taking a breakfast break.
Bought a repro Gabe the Lamplighter on ebay tonight. Like to have an original but way too expensive for me. Grandson's name is Gabriel so it will be special on the layout.
Colin-You may get a second opinion before going under the scope. Take care of your knees. I've got one rebuilt, and the other is game at times. Best thing I ever did to help my knees was to keep my weight under control. I am 6'3" and weigh 200#. Whenever I get above 210 my knees ache. Wear good shoes too. Cheap ill fitting shoes are killers.
Lisa-Glad you are feeling better.
Dennis-Did you have anything to do with the movie Facing the Giants?
Chief-I think you will like the Four-runner. I have some fiends with them and they love them. Quick healing of the hand, keep it away from those nasty beavers.
Take care all, need to get back to work
May God bless
Jim
Worked on track tonight. Tweaking and adjusting. Finally have one end ajusted in, I think. All the big engines can negotiate the curves without bumping into each other. And even more don't interfere with any stock, that could be sitting. I've tried setting up the worst case scenerios and it all seems to be working. But, there's got to be something I'm overlooking.
Picked up the support pieces I had made. They were not suppose to be ready until Thur or Fri., but called and had them ready to day. Had some track support made out of 36g CRS, that are the same radius as 072 curve track section, only it is 5" wider. These two pieces will each bridge a section between two peninusula's. Did a fit check and I think they will work fine. Tomorrow, night see how far I get with the next section.
Interesting item on the news here, about 2 years ago these Ozone Generators were sold as air purifiers. All over the place! Rather expensive as well anywhere between $300-$400 ! We ended up with one, I have never cared for it much because of the Ozone smell that it can create. This week it was announced that they are being banned in Calif.. Nothing like generating your own personal SMOG. May want to check this issue out if any one has one.
Glad to hear "The Beav's" hand is doing better.
Oh, I found a Beaver camoflauge kit, copy below. Just cut, scan, adjust to size, and your completely indistingushable. All set for undercover beaver work.
Don
Hand surgery went well. Only cut one time and got it all. Was supppsoe to be in at 7:30. Went in at 7:15 and gone by 8:00. First one in and first one out. Went to look and drive 4Runner. That is what we are going to buy. Thent o County Commissioners meeting. Listen to Wake Co Public Schools lie!!!!!!! Got home in time for two tomato sandwiches and then off to Town Board. Room was full of folks for public hearing. Funny, none of the folks talking lived in Rolesville. Tabled a motion to approve the 831 homes plus commercial. We are to take it back up first item ont he 16th. Will pass but we wanted to insure all the items we told developer we had to have was in the written form and correct. Now for some popcorn. Tired. Got to pack tomorrow for trip to Columbia SC. Got marine dealers' show. Back Saturday.
GOOOD NIGHT

We've got cable tv/phone/internet as a package - works great until the neighbor chops the line. Broadband is great 'cause the wife and I could be on at the same time and you don't even notice.
We were supposed to get rain so didn't touch up windows tonight, now they said it didn't rain due to too dry? Hope for rain tomorrow night.
Robot Chicken had a short skit featuring toy trains, but not very flattering to the hobby! Pretzels or popcorn folks, if you're hungry later.
RIP Chewy - best dog I ever had.
Evening all!
Lisa - good to hear you are on the mend!
Colin - sorry about your knee. As these guys say - follow the doc orders precisely so you heal quickly and properly. You do not want a knee that is messed up for the rest of your life! I stretched a tendon in my right elbow while water skiing on July 4, 2006. It is just now healing up like the doc said it would. Apparently since they do not have good blood flow, tendons do not heal quickly and are easy to injure again. Hopefully I get to ski next summer.
Very warm here with high humidity so it is very uncomfortable outside, even late evening and early morning. Hopefully there is cold front on the way for later this week.
Have a great evening all!
Regards, Roy
Doug, good luck on the Rail Zepp - very interesting project!

Brutus I believe the chief stated Our sister Lisa isn't doing well she hurt her back not his sister.
Got in today a K-Line opperating colonial house 9 lights up, swing set swings move and smoke unit for chimney ) also mr spiff and puddles, 3 k-line super market snap together buildings and a bakery/ liquior store building also snap together. The snap together ones Iwill have to do some painting to as not much difference there to make it look correct. Somethin for me to do anyway.
88- guess you finished the shed/mother-in-law quarters? How about a pic?
Colin, Prayers for a quick recovery!
Lisa - glad you are doing better. For some reason, I thought Chief was posting about a sister? Guess I misread that. Glad your hubby is up and about too!
Gotta get strted on 2 diff projects, but first have to touch-up paint the window frames because I'm so great with caulk. I think I got everything sealed up, though.
John, hope this week is easier on you and you can get back to your old schedule!
Sir James, Glad to hear you are doing better as well. Good luck on cable. How are you on the net? Phone?

That would be ok, but make sure you don't eat the frosting off this time !!
Thanks, John
