Good Morning---we're Sunny and 7C, going to a high of 16C. We're going to be sunny for the next few days by the looks of things----break out the sunblock!!--yes, they're already throwing out the UV rating at us!!
Getting tax form finished off today, then I can be doing the things I'd rather be doing---ie--getting new card into camera and batteries into the poor thing as well. I'm starting to use the dang thing more as I'll have a few more opportunities to take train pix---my clients are close by GEXR---another shortline up here---heeheehee
Find out from sister she is getting another kiln in today---just in time for moi to have to get friend to come down to rewire her dang basement for the kiln.
Chloe--I'll have a coffee with toast/jam please---I'm going to the back corner--at least I can see the airmailing going on

Dude, lets get a few things straight right off........
1) I've been making off with other peoples pies for a VERY long time. This is NOT a new development. I am simply so fast, that you never caught on before now!
2) I'm still quick enough that I'm not going to stop making off with other peoples pies. They're gone before they even know it!
3) I'm quicker then you, so it won't be you that stops me either!

I s'pose not--maybe walls?

Rob: Check your PMs, I've replied to
Would you please post a longer view to include the switching area in front of the tunrtable & new building? Curious to see exactly how you handled all that. (I'm working on a very similar area and can use all the help I can get) Thanks!
Back tot he to do list! TTFN.

Lots of sunshine here in the Finger Lakes today. Currently 47°F with a high around 56°F this afternoon. I could deal with days like this all the time.

CederstrandChris, I wouldn't last Reporting one day before getting tossed out the door. I think 8 out of 10 things the Govt does is rediculous and one of the remaining two is usually unnecessary.
ROB: It's a challenge. I think I may be a rare breed of "journalist." I don't inject commentary, my opinion, or my "analysis" into the articles. I leave my political views at home. I just report what the boneheads do. In fact, "reporters" who do "analysis" really tick me off. It's like the talking head is saying "you're too dumb/stupid/ignorant to understand what's going on...only an educated, enlightened reporter like myself can break this down and explain it to a simpleton like you..." I don't watch TV news anymore...I end up yelling at the TV.
The whole bridge deal just gets stranger and weirder. FEMA spent a lot of time working with the Sutliff Bridge Authority. Sounds like an "official" name right? Sounds like a governmental entity right? FEMA thought so. FEMA was about to give them the funds for repair...then *goofy gosh!* discovered that the "Sutliff Bridge Authority" was really a bunch of area residents, headquartered in a bar, that leases the bridge from the County for, I think (gotta double check this) a buck a year. Now, FEMA is upset because they can only give such money to a real govt. agency, not a bunch of people wanting to preserve their 100+ year old Parker Truss bridge.
I did ask one County Sup. WHY the feds were paying for it (either way), as-in, why are the feds funding a local project? He smiled, said he didn't know...but "isn't it great?"
YOUR money guys.
I wonder how much time, money they wasted now that they have to start all over again. FEMA gal couldn't/wouldn't tell me much of anything, just kept repeating FEMA will either give Johnson County the bucks to fix it...or pay to tear the remains down. The word "parrot" came to mind...
Hey RAY, While Officer Obie is here, is he gonna take a bunch of 8 X 10 glossy photos with circles and arrows, and a paragraph on the back of each one???
Are we on the brink of the Trackside Diner Massacre?
Time for a quick cup of boot coffee, then time to refine the bridge story for THAT editor...

My little 20 pounder, Manét is currently sleeping on top of the suitcase I have been trying to pack all day. He does this every time i pack to go on a trip. He also gets very upset if I try to move him. He seems to think he can prevent me from going anywhere by blocking my access to the suitcase........ He has also been giving me his sad face and "Meooow" every time I walk by. He should know that his favorite "pet sitter" will be stopping in several times to feed, groom, and play with him.
OK now this has been running through my brain all day:
"You can get anything you want at Alice's RestaurantYou can get anything you want at Alice's RestaurantWalk right in it's around the backJust a half a mile from the railroad trackYou can get anything you want at Alice's Restaurant"
