Well I'm in between jobs right now. I'm waiting for the paperwork and background checks to be completed on my new job. The days are now long and I have to spend the day with teenagers. I hope I can get into the new job by the middle of the month.
On the good side of things I have completed some more detail work on the layout. So far I have finished two portals and started the detail work at the base of my many peirs. It is starting to look nice.
We had a very good rain yesterday and had over one inche in the water gauge. That will make the corn grow not mention the grass.
I did order another train yesterday. It is a Candian National non power unit from MTH due out in Novemeber from the #2 catalog.
I wish all those with problems the best.

HI GIZ,
RT sorry for the let go, hope something comes your way.
Nice day here today storms yesterday, NO GOLF.
Had wings and beer last nite at the bar all good.
Laying tile this afternoon.
All have a good one.
A quick stop. Hope all is well.
RT, sorry for the news. Perhaps God has a better job around the corner for you. Will add you to the prayer list.
Zeke, hope you are progressing well. I am sure you will have a few more visits after you leave the hospital so they can make sure all is as it should be. You have a special girl in Jenny.
Chief, good luck with the mayor thing. Perhaps you are taking on quite a load.....hope you don't have to start being nice to Yankees as part of your job.
Anyway, hope everyone has a great weekend. Have a few long cases today and time to start. Take care and God Bless,
Dennis

I'm starting to get that impression, Chief...Easier to spread gossip that way I suppose.
Got to go file for Mayor. Then run to Sears [at big mall in edge of Raleigh] and get my $38 [with all the discounts] 19.2V Craftsman portable jig saw.
Don't forget to purchase a $38 Searsucker suit, "Mr. Mayor"! You're gonna need it for all your politicing! HA HA!!

Cloudy. Does that mean rain? Who knows. So dry the frogs and turtles at the pond are carrying canteens. Pond has dropped 2 feet in the past week. Others around look the same as they are down too.
Got email from Dr. John. He has added Zeke to his prayer list. We need to remember Dr. John too. His Mom is on the "down hill" side. Lots of strain on him and his Dad. Then he has all the Church stuff too.
Speaking of Zekie. Anyone heard anything today? Hope no word is good word. Maybe he will sign on soon.
Later and God bless.

No. I must be doing something wrong. I can only get small applet windows to pop up. Nothing more. Screw it. Does anyone really want to read my unfiltered ramblings? I didn't think so.
Jim
Everything OK Jim???
We see you popping in a nnd out on the chat site.

Yup!
Good morning all,
It is a foggy morning in SE Indiana with temps in the 60s rising to the 80s. I did weights at the YMCA last night. Work has been busy. Will be busy this weekend. Daughter will be down tomorrow with two of the grandkids so I have to get chores done tonight. My wife is going to Bloomington today to help other daughter do some house cleaning after moving back in. I have Lucas doing a little more than normal in the yardcutting so I can get the house swept as well tonight. The one granddaghter that likes trains is in the bunch that is arriving Saturday so I plan to have several temporary layouts set up for her. Sunday I have a double header in racing on TV as both the F-1 and IRL races are on network TV at different times. Maybe, just maybe, one of the good guys (or gals) will win. I see where the dining car is here from "Points East". I hope everybody (especially Zeke and Jenny) have a good day.
Keep on training,
Mike C. from Indiana
HHHHhhhhhmmmmm.. If I could make my own forum..........

Ahhh underwear humor....a nice break from all the Grits jokes!
Zeke: Glad you're back!
RT: Sorry about the job loss...Praying for another.
Jaabat: Where did you get your stamp? I've been contemplating, but was skeptical about the quality.
Ohizo Zoo yesterday. Saw the baby Cheetahs romping & frolicking, Polar Bears....asleep as usual. We go a couple of times a month.
Good Morning from Blueberryhill....
It is a foggy, 60 degrees. Going up to 85, today, with lots of sunshine. We have had enough rain for awhile.
Today, I will do a few things around the house. Wife is doing better. She took it easy, yesterday, and had a restful night. Ran trains, yesterday, for about 2 hours Took some pictures, and made some signs to go on the layout. Look good. Need to do some serious dusting. I will be mowing grass this weekend. Starting to grow again.
Jim...( jaabat )...Were you denied underwear as a child ??
Dining car is here and ready for breakfast. Later.
Chuck
Y'all have a great Friday.
Good morning from New England where we got some more rain last night. Not complaining though. Some parts of rednecknation are flooded and others can't seem to buy a drop of rain.
I rubber stamped a cab number on my 2025 last night with ink bought at a craft store. Still not dry this morning. I'll remove the ink tonight and restamp with silver paint (Testors).
I'll try to remember to visit the chat room tonight. Need to load java on the laptop first. I'll be the guy with no pants on!
Morning all,
Got another rain yesterday late. Grass and garden perking up.
Commando Friday? Maybe when I get to work and get into my coveralls. Folks who go Commando wearing coveralls are called Swingers.
Trees for the empty holes on the All Aboard panels came in yesterday. Should make a big difference in the appearance.
Jim- Like Jim said, a trip to the machine shop to press the bearing is worth the time and money. Part won't get damaged and neither will you!
Time to go to work
May God bless
