Hey!! Misery loves company, and cabin fever from being "snowed in" isn't helping anything..............

P.S. You didn't really "scare" me as such, but I must admit it's make me a bit nervous at times.

We have more heading this way today but with "freezing rain" on the offing first before the snow starts. This is central Missouri no less!!!

You bet your "duellies" I'd like to send it somewhere else!!!

Not a good start to 2011 for me, either.  One week into January I contacted a violent Salmonella infection that dehydrated me and shut down my kidneys.   So now I get hooked up to a dialysis machine 3 days a week for God only knows how long until they decide to come back.  Which limits me not only in my teaching, but in my time for the hobby. 

So the Yuba River Sub is in a state of suspended animation for the time being.  Too bad, too, I just got a complete set of the MTH "Daylight" cars, and haven't been able to get out to run them yet.  They're sure nice to look at, though.

Sometimes it's just venting.  After you're around for awhile you get to know the people a little.  You'll understand a bit better then.

Hi Tom,

Prayers and Blessings from the Great White North.

We'll arrange for Garry to get the Chapel Car in behind a couple of CB&Q E7s and get it out to Carmichael on the fly. That will be a lot quicker than those dirty old steamers, don't you think ??

Seriously, that poisoning is nothing to fool with.   I endured it many years ago and I don't think I have ever been sicker. It had me down and out for several days, and then lingered on for awhile as well.

Hope your recovery goes well and quick and you are back on the Yuba Sub. in short order.Thumbs UpThumbs Up
