My copy was waiting when I returned from NYC Saturday night.  I noticed some logs in the stream - were the beavers building a d* - oops - "structure made of logs that straddles a stream"? Where was the Chief's gun? Oh - judging by the stance of the guy on the right in the boat - he just dropped it in the stream...

My copy of Classic Toy Trains arrived at 4 p.m. today. I commented on Kent Johnson's  cover photo in the "Coffee Pot" where editorials are more appropriate.

I have yet to recieve my copy.  Perhaps Bob sent it to the Chief to autograph the cover?  I know that would just make the value skyrocket.

The funny thing is, the Chief still has not received his March CTT yet! Even I got mine before him (Friday).

Kent did an outstanding job on the water article. He sure knows his stuff when it comes to scenery!

Just a note... On page 25 of the March issue, they show a picture of the  CTT's 20th Anniversary truck AND wood sided refrigerator car. Very nice items.

I'm an EX-Aux Wildlife Enforcement Officer and they let me get by with all game and fish laws.  [no joke]  I haven't been checked by a WRC Officer in 20 years.  Last time I was checked, I was fishing on a lake and the Officer asked me where I got the WRC Enforcement hat I was wearing.  Told him the Col. gave to me.  He then said, "OH, I know who you are."  We became good buddies and worked together some.  They were my "pets" when I was fleet manager.  Yes, tha tis good old Bob in the boat with me.  Fishing WI.

All this means is the Chief will be spending time in a frozen snow covered Wisconsin Yankee Jail. Big Smile [:D]  BRRRRRRR!!!!!!!!!
