Evening All [:)] <br /> <br />The maillady (yes now I have a lady post"man") brought me a nice surprise today. Mitchell, from Canada, mailed me a surprise Christmas present of a nice railroad book and 2 HO streetcars. He also included some photos of a Northern Pacific steam engine. [:D] The package took over $14 bucks to mail. [:0] I have said this before and don't mind saying it again, "Mitchell is a super young man." One of my favorite pictures hanging on my wall is a hand-drawn one of three Canadian steam engines. Mitchell drew it for me and sent it over a year ago. I found a nice frame for it and it is a prized wall hanging at my home. [:)] <br /> <br />I don't think Mitchell has posted here in the shop but many of you know him from the MR forum or other trains.com forums. Eliot has even had the pleasure of meeting Mitchell. One of these days I would like that pleasure myself. I have talked by phone to a bunch of our forum members but the only one I have meet in person (that I know of anyway) is Teffy. <br /> <br />Fergie [4:-)] <br /> <br />Sorry to hear that your weather is so bad. Maybe you can send some of it to sNoah. [}:)] I have been hearing different stories here but at the Arkansas State Tourist Info Center at Harrison, one of the workers told me that during the ice/snow storm that traffic was only moving 1 mile in 6 hours. So I am very happy I got out of here when I did, one day later and my trip would not have happened. I still have 4 inches of snow in my back yard. Between Conway, Arkansas and Little Rock, there (as of Sunday afternoon) were still lots of cars in the ditch and abandoned. So trust me, I know how you feel about this nasty weather. Even though I missed it this time I was "in" it other times. My power was off about 4 years ago for 6 days and I lost everything in the icebox as well as lots of tree limbs from an ice storm. So I feel for ya. [:(] <br /> <br />Well I think I hear some pork chops calling my name. [:p] [;)] <br /> <br />Later all. [8D] <br />
