Evening all. We spent the day at the shore visiting with family. Although it was a little cool out, we all had a great time. Just got back. Superman is on the TV, but no one is up but me. Tomorrow is the last day of five in a row off for me. I'll try to make the least of it by doing as little as possible.

Thanks for the well wishes guys.  Planned on doing some layout work tonight, made out my list for the pre-orders for Lionel.  Comes to about $700.00.  SWMBO ain't gonna like that one.  Oh well.  Have a great night everyone.

Dennis

ps: we are watching sound of music also.  Have the dvd and daughter/wife love it.  Start the singing and dancing.

[dougdagrump]

Hip Hip Hooray !!!!!!!!

It's finally below 100*.

Roy, It makes no difference what you wear when it is that Hot, you will be extremely uncomfortable.

 Hello Dennis!    Sorry about the loss of your 28 year old friend. At least he cannot suffer anymore. Looks like the Sound of Music is the favorite of everyone's wife here on the Pot. It would be funny if one of the companies came out with a Sound of Music theme Train. It would sell like Hotcakes if the Wives found out about it. Take Care all.

[csxt30]

Roy : Tony is moving up right now, anyway !! 

Well, getting ready for bed now, have to get up early for the Airshow tomorrow !!

Boy, nothing from Buckeye yet. I noticed The Chief hasn't posted much lately. I wonder if he did something with Buckeye........? !!  Well, you better believe I'll be launching a major investigation now !! There's something Fishy going on here !!  Chuck : keep your eyes peeled & call me if you hear anything while I'm away tomorrow !! This could turn into a huge manhunt !! May even have to put an APB out too !! ( that's what Broderick Crawford used to say )

Hope everyone has a nice night & a good day tomorrow too !!

Thanks, John

Nice day today mid 80's and sunny. Watched The Shooter last night it's a must see. Story is a old one. They frame a guy for a assasination and her has to prove he didn't do it. But it's pretty good lots of action.

My Buddy and fishing partner has that one.  He highly recommends it.  He is SUPPOSE to lend it to me.

Don B, a little "wiggle" to keep you Weebles in line.

Been at SIL's for Pam's family gathering this evening.  Took news guy to pond and we sat on tailgate and chatted for 3 hours.  Outdoors guy like me.  Pretty good guy even though he is from PA and Laz's area.   Lives up the street in the new subdivision.  Shows he is smart.  Moved from PA to Roseyville.

Did get track up in back room.  Ready to cut Soundstop and glue it down.  Tomorrow's project.  Tuesday is County Commissioner's meeting [CC's expect me to speak on Roseyville new school site] and then Town Board.  Have to go to Mom's this week too.  

Later  OH, ASU did beat those Yanks in Michigan.  

PS: Dennis, sorry about your buddy.

Thanks, John

Went to a buddy's house for pizza.  They have an outdoor firepit and when it got a little dark they made a small fire and the kids made s'mores.  Too hot for a fire, but the kids had fun.  Brought back a whole plate of brownies.  3 of them are reserved, but the rest are up for grabs, Sir James, John S, and anybody else - first come, first served!

Dennis - I am not preordering this time, and it is killing me!  I want about $1000 worth of stuff, too.  Oh well.  Maybe next time around.

Good evening everyone,

I just got back from a friends house. We enjoyed a few TV shows, and played soccer, and Capture the Flag.

Dennis, I'm very sorry for your loss.

PhilaKnight and Chief, Shooter is one of the best movies I have ever seen, right next to The Departed.

What !!!!!!!

Not even the Hogwarts Express ???????

                   

[Brutus]

Already preordered that from last time!!!  I've still got that and a reindeer car coming, as well as a barn/chicken coop and a smoking Halloween car....   I think that's it!  Mostly, I need more track and I think a PW ZW after I get caught up.  Maybe for Christmas!

Chief getting freindly with yanks whats this world coming to first fife and I and now a neighbor news type don't know if I can handle hearing much more of this

[Jumijo]

Good morning from beautiful New England. We all slept well after our day at the beach. The sun will do that to you. I have a nice sun burn on my face, except where my sun glasses were!

The Chief is a closet northerner. He secretly pines to live up here in God's country. And now he is getting chummy with Northerners in Roseyville. Soon the lion will lie down with the lamb.

Wifey drove past a yard sale on Saturday that had "an old metal train that was ridable outdoors". She didn't buy it. I think it was a Buddy L. It would have looked great in the train room.

[Blueberryhill RR]

Good Morning from Blueberryhill....

Happy Labor Day to Everyone !!!

It is a foggy 62 degrees. Going up to a sunny 85, today.

Today is a relaxing day. I have a few things to do, but nothing major. We will take it easy and enjoy the warm weather.  I may run trains later, when it's the afternoon's hottest. Nothing else is new on the layout. I have a lot of plans for the winter. ( bad word ) . Looking forward to the big TOTTSGEOTST on the 11th. Then the Train Show on Oct. 6th.

Question of the Day............Where is Buckeye ?????

The Dining Car is on time and ready to serve breakfast. Later.

Y'all have a great Labor Day Monday.

Chuck

[fifedog]

Good morning from a beautifully sunny and cool Crystal Lake where I have been enjoying the past couple of days with my sister and her husband who are visiting us from NYC. We ran trains yesterday and managed to derail a trolley or two in the far corners of the layout. But they really enjoyed running them, and the GG1. Went out last night for a ridiculously expensive Chicago meal but the bride appreciated spotting celebrities - all of whom I didn't know. I worked yesterday as video director at our church services for a friend whose 3 year old fell on a trampoline  (my friend, his dad, was trying to help him do a flip - which he acknowledges was stupid) and is in a full body cast for 8 weeks - boy, that'll be hard...  The middle boy is suddenly going through a friend-less, hard sort of season when everything seems to be wrong - so I took him to see the Simpsons movie in the middle of a beautiful day and will think up something to do together today - have a pleasant day, all! Hmmm, the beach sounds like a good idea.

[dwiemer]

Doug, sorry to hear about your son's friend.  We all do things on the foolish side, but usually get away with it.  Hope his recovery is uneventful.  Unfortunately, I get to see lots of the results of momentary lapses in judgement...we call them traumas.

Good morning to Y'all.  I see the president has made a trip to Iraq to visit with the troops.  Glad to see he visits with the guys.  Said a prayer for his and their safety and guidance.

Have a great Labor Day!

Dennis

Good morning,  TO THOSE WHO STILL LABOR: ENJOY YOUR DAY

                                            Sir James

[ChiefEagles]

Morning.  From the Godfather:

You keep your friends close and your enemies closer.

Train room work today.  Got to get at it.  Slept late.  Have a good one.

[Brutus]

Morning folks.  Doug M, sorry to hear about the little boy, hope he heals fast!  Lucky he's not paralyzed or worse though.  Hope your child feels better soon too.

Only slept in until 8:30.  Watching the last 2 ep's of Heroes, then to wash the windows and truck.  later I'll prime the windows.  That's about it for today.  Wife and kids should be back later - missed them a lot!

[mitchelr]

Morning Folks.  Thought I'd check in before I get busy with yard work, etc.  Been away for a few days. Went to our annual Labor Day weekend reunion with friends from High School.  Plenty of good food and time with friends.

Still trying to decide whether to pre-order the Flying Yankee. Would probably eat up my train budget for the year.  I would really like to see one and see it run before I decide, but that will not be possible since they will be gone before I get a chance to see it.

Well lots to do.  I'll stop by later.

Mitch 

[Brutus]

Yeah, I'd love to have that Flying Yankee too - looks way cool.

Finished Heroes.  Cried a little.  Great series, can't wait for the next one!

[PhilaKnight]

Hello and good afternoon,

Slept late today. Busy last night. Handled a stabbing, arson, and last job was a shooting. Don't you love the holidays. Nobody was drunk ether.

Well this morning had to pull the battery out of the Harley it keeps going dead. Check the acid level it was low so hopefuly thats the problem. Don't feel like buying a new one. 

Hope everyone has a good Labor Day

[wrmcclellan]

Happy Labor Day all!

Might rain again here today. High is about 90. Supposed to rain some all next week.

Have a great day all. Have a few chores to do today.

 

[jefelectric]

PhilaKnight, sounds like you had a busy night.

A Happy Labor Day to everyone.
