Good evening,

Well we drove to York, Traffic was no problem going in via Rte 30 from the East.  Returning to the East we lost probably 10 minutes.  The spot were the one lane traffic starts is just past one of the busiest on ramps, Mt. Zion Road, this in effect chokes 3 lanes down to one in a short distance and creates stop and go traffic for about a mile.  One of our job superintendents that travels this area every day confirms this is about the same during weekday rush hours except the Eastbound delay can be 20 minutes.  This has no effect on traffic between 83 and the fair grounds.  The only impact on York TCA is travel from the Lancaster area to York.  Went to the East Coast Large Scale Train Show.  Nice Show, nice people.  Met Colin and his Dad.  Took some pics which I will post of Sunday Photo Fun.  Still learning the new camera so they are not the greatest.

Take care,

[tschmidt]

OK Buckeye, try this one...

Roy Rodgers had just bought a new pair of boots and when he wore them the first time he got them dirty so Dale asked him to leave them out on the porch over night. When he got up in the morning the shoes were gone and there were mountain lion tracks visible leading away from the porch. Well, old Roy was pretty mad so he grabbed his gun and mounted Trigger to go after the mountain lion. A little while later he came riding in the yard with that cat over the back of his horse. Dale met him in the yard singing..."Pardon me Roy, is that the cat that chewed your new shoes"

Have a good night all.

Good evening all,

It was a nice warm and cloudy in SE Indiana with temps in the 70s.  We stayed up late and watched Close to Home and Numb3rs Friday night.  We also went to Lucas show.  It was only  a half hour long, but it was funny.  We slept in this morning, but went over to Columbus to get a garage door.   Also did some other shopping as well.  We ate at Steak'n'Shake.  We also got our federal tax return Friday, which went for the garage door. 

It was a good day for my favorite team in the IRL as Darren Manning qualified 5th fastest in AJ's car.  That is the best start in a long time for the team.  If they could win tomorrow, that would be fantastic.  I enjoyed the puns, Buckeye.  Chief, you might want to stay an extra day in Florida and take in the IRL race in St. Petersburg.  Chuck, I will probably sleep in again tomorrow so don't wait too long for the dining car from "Points East".  Tmcc man, I am glad you had a good day at the train show.  I hope everyone has a good day.

Keep on training,

Mike C. from Indiana

Too late, CHIEF.  I dealt with exploding grits all last Sunday.

[Brutus]

The Fiance and I went out last night and picked out our wedding bands. 

Congratulations - that's a big step, man.  In keeping with Buckeye's prior pun post, I hope the store has the bands in stock that you picked out.  Otherwise, they'll have to call their supplier and they will post your wedding bands earlier than you wanted! 

Watched about 1/2 of the O Gauge Layout dvd - pretty good! Then put in about 6 hours working in the basement - nearly have all the light switch wire run - then just need to do final connections and install the light fixtures, finish out the plumbing on the bathroom, install drywall, install ceiling, carpet...  One day it will be done!

[ChiefEagles]

Nope, was printing boarding pass.  You have to do that exactly 24 hours before flying when you fly South Trash [the Trailways of the airways] to get an "A" for boarding.  No reserved seats on South Trash.  Only time I fly it is to Orlando.  Non stop 1 hour and 15 minutes and cheap.

Well, sold chargers.  Got real sore eyes.    Too many big tops here. 

Well, the Ohizoians should be having a great night.  Buckeyes won.  Are we going to have a repeat of the football playoff? 

Off to the room and microwave popcorn.  Good night.

It's Saturday Morning!

Here are the ten first place winners in the International Pun Contest:

1. A vulture boards an airplane, carrying two live Ohizonians. The stewardess looks at him and says, "I'm sorry, sir, only one carrion allowed per passenger."

2. Buckeye and Chuck swim into a concrete wall. The one turns to the other and says "Dam!"

3. Two stupid Ohizonians sitting in a kayak were chilly, so they lit a fire in the craft. Unsurprisingly it sank, proving once again that you can't have your kayak and heat it too.

4. Two hydrogen atoms meet. One says "I've lost my electron." The other says "Are you sure?" The first replies "Yes, I'm positive."

5. Did you hear about the Buddhist who refused Novocain during a root canal? His goal: transcend dental medication.

6. A group of chess enthusiasts checked into a hotel and were standing in the lobby discussing their recent tournament victories. After about an hour, the manager came out of the office and asked them to disperse.

"But why?", they asked, as they moved off.

"Because," he said," I can't stand chess-nuts boasting in an open foyer."

7. A woman has twins and gives them up for adoption.

One of them goes to a family in Egypt and is named "Ahmal." The other goes to a family in Spain; they name him "Juan. " Years later, Juan sends a picture of himself to his birth mother. Upon receiving the picture, she tells her husband that she wishes she also had a picture of Ahmal. Her husband responds, "They're twins! If you've seen Juan, you've seen Ahmal."

8. A group of friars were behind on their belfry payments, so they opened up a small florist shop to raise funds. Since everyone liked to buy flowers from the men of God, a rival florist across town thought the competition was unfair. He asked the good fathers to close down, but they would not. He went back and begged the friars to close. They ignored him. So, the rival florist hired Hugh MacTaggart, the roughest and most vicious thug in town to "persuade" them to close.

Hugh beat up the friars and trashed their store, saying he'd be back if they didn't close up shop.

Terrified, they did so, thereby proving that only Hugh can prevent florist friars.

9. Mahatma Gandhi, as you know, walked barefoot most of the time, which produced an impressive set of calluses on his feet. He also ate very little, which made him rather frail and, with his odd diet, he suffered from bad breath. This made him (Oh, man, this is so bad, it's good) a super calloused fragile mystic hexed by halitosis.

10. And finally, there was the person who sent ten different puns to friends, with the hope that at least one of the puns would make them laugh. No pun in ten did.

Another noteworthy week on the pot.  The reward money from OTTS went of course to Jim.  (The check is in the mail.) 

Colin, take pictures at the show today!!!

Isn't it wonderful that during the Chief's travels he keeps spitting on Buckeyes. 

Well with Mrs. Buckeye recovering from knee surgery, it is back doing house work for me.

See ya, I've got tracks in my veins,

Poor Buckeye.

Obviously, the chargers are not selling and the Chief is bored out of his mind.......No, he can't be bored out of his mind. 

Yep, Chiefie is bored, Must be stopped up with grits.

Good Saturday Morning from the Mile High City,

The Fiance and I went out lastnight and picked out our wedding bands.  Today I have a eye dr. appt. and hope to run the train some this afternoon.  After my pupils go back to normal I'm going to go down to the LHS and look at track.  I'm struggling with whether to use Atlas or Gargraves track.  Right now I have fasttrack and I think as I start my layout I want a more real-life look to the ballast etc. 

Anyway....I hope everyone has a nice Saturday.

Jerry

 

OOH !! Go with the Gargraves !! Initially the track will cost less, at my dealer it's less than 4 dollars a 37 & a half inch section. Lots of work with bending & cutting but when ballasted it looks more real, I think !! Then you may want the Ross switches, around the same price as Atlas switches !  With the Phantom flex track, you can go anywhere !! American made !! Just my !!

Thanks, John   

 

You'll be glad you did I been pricing it all and thats what I'm going to be going with.

Doug - The family and I are coming to Chicago for the LCCA convention the week of July 22-29. Some great tours although they are not exactly cheap. See LCCA's website for details (http://www.lionelcollectors.org/). The convention in Denver last year was outstanding. The trading area (about 100 tables typically) will be open to the public on Sat July 28 from 9 - 3. The convention is located at the Crowne Plaza O'Hare. The hotel said they are located about 2 blocks from the "L" (or El).

Roy - Chicago is a great town for families.  Kids love going to the top of the Sears Tower and the Hancock Building.  In the past, they would launch fireworks from Navy Pier on Wednesday nights.  If you are in the Hancock observation deck, you actually look down on the display.

We always liked the boat rides on the Chicago River and Lake Michigan, but it might be too slow for kids.   You cold ride the train out to the Dunes National Lakeshore for swimming and and picnic.  It is like taking a step back in time.

Good afternoon all!

Gorgeous day here today! Lots o' rain last night! We needed it! We have gotten about 2 inches (some got over 8!) in our area the last couple of days. Won't break the drought - but it certainly helps. Of course we are starved for water and then we get lots of flooding.

Buckeye - good ones!

York is just around the corner!

JTaylor - I agree with John - Gargraves and Ross switches.

Don - we just finished recarpeting part of the house - huge job cleaning out an moving stuff. Now we have to do the office (argh - big desk, bookshelves, file cabinets to move). Then we gotta do the living and dining areas (wood - trying to figure out best way to go since we have a slab on grade foundation).

Have a great day all!

Afternoon all,

Buckeye, I loved the puns!  I was laughing all morning from them.

Off today and been running around in the rain.  Glad I got the yard work done yesterday.  Picked up a donated stove for the rummage at church and got the church ready for Palm Sunday.  Next week is going to be great and busy!  I'm on night shift next week and was able to take vacation for services Thursday Friday and Saturday.  It will be in the wee hours of the night next week when I get a chance to check in.

I hope to work on dirt roads to the sawmill today.  So far looking good.  I think I'll put in a track crossing, mud holes chickens in the yard, maybe a car on blocks, sounds like Southern Ohio!

All take care and God bless

Good morning from central Alabama. Overcast and cool this a.m., but only a slight chance or rain. Cut the grass yesterday, running the sprinklers today. Our county is under a fire ban, so I won't be able to burn any of the brush I cut. Oh well.

Time to grab the weed eater and whack some weeds. Then off to the store. Later.

Morning All

No train activity today, made it thru the week, got a LOT of tasks done that have been delayed at work due to painting, etc..  Wife has decided that we need "decorative" switches and receptacles.  Wouldn't be a problem BUT we have aluminum wiring, UGH!!! Lots of extra work!!  Then got to move all the furniture from Living Room, Dinning Room and Family Room.  New Carpet coming on Monday (Sound familiar Chuck?).  Going to run wires for cable and speakers under the carpet, (another advantage of California Slab houses).  

I might just post some pics on Sunday of the train room?  These will definetely be the Before pics.

Got to get to work, hope everyone has a good week-end.

 

[dwiemer]

Good Morning Y'all,

Chief, glad you scored that caboose.  I saw several different items up for auction that I would have liked, but she who must be obeyed had another opinion on the matter. 

Sorry you keep having to run into Buckeyes trying to escape their homeland.  I have come across a bunch too.  Usually they are either cutting me off or driving 20mph below the speed limit in the left lane while they look for signs to Florida.

Speaking of She Who Must Be Obeyed, I purchased some flower boxes, so now I had to mount them on the railing on the deck, and when she comes home from having her hair done, we are going shopping for flowers.  We also have to go to the nursery to buy more trees.  They had made a mistake in our billing and owe us $72.00 plus tax, so now we are going to pick our more trees to plant......by me.  I don't think my back can take all this manual labor.  Nurse, pass the knife

Have a great week,

Dennis

Good morning everyone,

I was up late last night, I was to excited to go to sleep. I just finished a waffle, and 3 glasses of orange juice, and it was great. Never has such a simple breakfast tasted so good. I'll be leaving the hotel in a few minutes, and hopefully I will meet Jefelectric today.

I hope everyone has a good day.

Good Morning from Blueberryhill....

It is a cloudy 50 degrees. Going up to 68 today with the chance of a few rain showers. I hope it doesn't.

Today, we are cleaning around the house. It has been a very sad week and a lot of things need to be attended to. Thank goodness, the kitchen is done. We are trying to stay busy, to keep from thinking. But that is a difficult thing to do. I may run trains later, I have not for a few days. Tried to, but never got to the train room.  I will need to do some serious grass cutting soon. Buds on trees are coming out. Blooms are out, on the flowering cherry tree. Spring is here. I think.

NASCAR race from Martinsville, Sunday.  # 20 to win.

Well, Dining Car is here. I wonder if " points west " was aboard yet. Time to eat breakfast.

Y'all have a great Saturday.

Chuck

[Brutus]

Rained like crazy and supposed to keep up all weekend.  May have to clear cut and burn the rain forest growing in my front yard by next week!  Hope the hippies don't chain themselves to my grass

[Sturgeon-Phish]

Evening all, I was off today and worked in the yard, played with grand kids and played with trains, then took the bride out for dinner.  All in all a great day.  When ever I wanted a laugh, I thought about Chief in costume.  If the guys at Probass see you in tights, they may want you  in costume to attract attention!

BTW, can anyone give me advice on how to best put screws in drywall to hold up a light curtain rod? They keep ripping out as the youngest pulls the drapes. I put in some of those plastic screw holders but they just pop out too. Do I just get bigger ones? Your guidance deeply appreciated.

Here is a picture of a screw in fastener that I use a lot and have hung lots of curtin rods with.  They are very easy to install and hold a lot of weight.  I use them for my train shelving, that is how much I trust them

 

 Putting in a road through the farm to the sawmill.  Starting to take shape, got some logs and beams to clutter up the area.  I've received some great ideas, but a limited amount of space, I'm quite limited.

God bless

Good evening everyone,

Well, we got here later than expected, because we left later than we thought we would. We enjoyed a very nice chat with a bunch of fellow G Gaugers here at the hotel. They were saying Trainworld has nothing left because the prices were amazing.

Jefelectric there was little construction traffic the way we came. We made it in about 1hr 15mins. Hope to see you there.
