(Trouble posting here...gurrrr) Major flood here on the ol' farm. Wife was stuck for a couple hours until water subsided enough. Huge new culvert pipes under main road (now closed) couldn't keep up. Half of an inner pasture fence couldn't handle the piled up debris and was yanked right out of the ground, cement and all. Lots of work ahead when the waters subside.
Started on the wife's first of two Maxwell Avenue Homes. Nothing else to report on....been to exhausted lately.
Glad Jeffrey's foot is healing well. Hope everyone else is doing well.

Blazzin Ray, this is so funny.. but Jeanne my wife and I were looking at your pics last night. I was saying.. "Look at this guy.. he knows what he's doing." Very nice. I have spent hours going over your pics with a 'fine tooth comb' I've been studying them... its been fun... Thanks~
Your welcome and Thank You! I, every once in while, think I am actually learning how to do decent scenery. I have come to really like to see the difference that a couple of hours creating it does for the layout. I'm hoping that a panel of judges is in agreement with you when they come to visit to judge for a NMRA Merit Award soon.....
Speaking of that, I sent an email to the MMR in charge of the judging asking when he thought he would have the group together to do it. He emailed me back saying he was waiting on me to get in touch with one of the guys...... Looks like we may get everything on a straight course and get this done before we get too much snow around here! (I hope!)
I have to agree with some of you that many of the new medical diagnostic occupations must be very interesting work. My late wife was trained as a Surgical Tech back in the 1970's when they were around. She never did w**k as one but loved the training. She became a Medical Secretary and worked both in a private Drs. office and before that in the emergency room at Robert Packer Hospital in Sayre, PA.
Jeffrey glad that all went well with your Dr. appt. today!

TMarsh I just measured from the corner of the room I assumed was where they started from and, within the board width that will cover, tapped in the first nail. Repeating this process every inch until the stud is found. Language of course gets harsher with each hole until usually it gets to insulting the builder of said wall. In the case on the train room, that would be.......
Yup, THAT's pretty much what I done-did, more or less; complete with the language. You got the progression of it spot-on. I can tell for sure when I'm in the stud...it's like concrete, only it don't crumble outta the way. Now that the first bracket is up, I'm re-thinking some of the paint in the RR room, and how it would be easier to make the change now...before the rest of 'em are assembled/installed.
I may have to just sit in the RR room...with a good, strong mug of coffee...and do some pondering and cogitation after I call my leads for the week, make sure I keep cranking out content for THAT editor.
Good Afternoon, happy whatever day it is wherever you are. Like Todd, I neglected to send-out any cards. "My bad" as them younger folks tend to say...

Blazzin: You don't have to tell me about what a radiologist tech goes through. I hear all about it from the younger of my two nieces. It's her chosen field and she performs her work very well. As you said the hours are long and the work load can be heavy, but she enjoys it. She enjoys the pay too.

Jeff.. sounds like you're in good hands. I used to be a 'Certified Registered Radiologic Technologists' .. a glorified x ray tech. Many of my friends went into Nuclear Medicine because the work was very interesting. What ppl don't understand is that a Nuc Med Scan measures the level and intensity of circulation. By/with the injection.. of very small radioactive pharmacuetical (half life of hours) .. an image intensifier picks of the ciruculation and puts displays the image. What ppl also don't understand medicine.. your health and life is exspensive. Sure X ray techs make good money.. but the hours.. are very long.. you never get a chance to see your kids grow up.. you miss them too.. and your wife. To get your paycheck and see an addittional 40 hours of overtime.. in a 80 hour 2 weeks period.. I dunno~ A few years back I had told my wife.. I had enough.. I just couldn't do it anymore. She said fine.. don't go to work anymore.. so I quit...lol. As for me.. I became a CAT scan Tech. It was a new field really beginning to exspand. And I fell into it perfectly. To me, working with computers.. and scanning ppl.. working with the Radiologist on biopsy's was fun. I was good. Before that believe it or not.. I was a 'Printer' for L.A. Times. Big big printing presses. 10 on one side.. 11 on the other.. make up one big printing press.. and there were four of those. Printing newspapers was hard and dangerous work. We had.. just like in railroading. A 'Hot Prsss' .. so all 44 presses were / had a green light and a red light' If you saw a red light all the way down.. danger.. 'Hot Press' .. if you need to work on it.. change a plate.. take out a 'saftey'.. and you would see .. way down the line.. the green light.. you knew someone was working.

Joe: Get the power supply in your computer checked out. I had problems with my computer just turning off for seemingly no reason like that and it turned out that the low voltage side on the power supply was going bad. After I replaced it the problem went away. A new power supply should run under $60.
The visit to the docs office went well. He likes the way the foot is looking. The swelling is gone and there's no fever in it. Culture swabs taken during surgery last week came back clean so that indicates no bugs are present. He's leaving the antiseptic beads in for as long as my body will tolerate them. They're packed with vancomycin and clindamycin, two powerful antibiotics. When my body starts rejecting them however they will have to be pulled out. I'm to continue my home iv use of the ceftriaxone antibiotic for the stated 21 day period. After that we'll play it by ear. For now at least, everything is looking good. On Wednesday morning I'll be going to see my primary care provider and on Thursday I'll be visiting the foot doc again for a new round of X-rays and on the 22nd I'll be seeing the urologist for a general checkup on the state of my prostate. Busy month so far.

Well, how do you think "Oaf Dah's" (sp) ancestors got here? Tom will have to chime in on that.....????
Kieth the illusion using a smaller scale near the back of the layout can work, but can also be hard to achieve. I used 'n' scale buildings and scenery near the back of one section of my "HO" scale layout. It is about 4/5 foot back where it was used. You can see the "N" scale farm house behind the buildings in this shot:
Here is a shot of the same house showing the huge tracks going by the place.......
There is also an "N" scale barn and horses back there as well. So far no one has come to the layout and noticed the change of scale. I think it would be very hard to do without the actual depth of the layout in that spot.
"Ah... I think this is tomorrows menu... 'Turkey Taco Tueday'? Turkey and eggs? Turkey sandwiches? Turkey Enchilada's? " .. "I 'll have a BLT, heavy on the real mayo .. and a large Coke" "Thanks"
In case you peeps out there are wondering what I am up to.. ~.. ? I am now looking at just a few Z scale houses and a few cars.. to go along with my N scale layout. The other day, I was looking at some pics of layouts, and came across.. a 'Hill and Dale' road... it looked at is was designed from afar. But as I could see it.. that is.. through my eyes.. and the hills/road ventured out into the distant.. it seemed.. the road got smaller.. and so did the houses. I think I want to give it a shot. Hey I just wish someone here would tell me of their layout their building.. perhaps even give me a site to see~ Phillip, wow.. he must be knee deep on his layout.. haven't seen him in a bit. Ok.. heres' my BLT .. wow that was fast.. "Mmm smells good"~

Sir Madog I have never understood, why they make such a big fuss about that Italian guy who supposedly discovered America in 1492. To my knowledge, it was Bjarne, Herjulf Bardson's son, in the year 986, who was the first pale-faced man whose eyes looked upon the American continent - 506 years before "maledetto Christoforo Colombo" thought he´d found his way to India... Bjarne must have landed somewhere close to a place we know now as Nova Scotia - DerJohn can probably tell us...

Goooooooooooooooood morning! And a wish for all of you North of the Border peoples to have a wonderful Thanksgiving Day! Of course to those of us down in the States a great Columbus Day as well!
Zoe I'll have a big bowl of hot oatmeal to start the day along with a cup of dark roast coffee in a FGLK mug.
Todd your mentioning the "history" thing made me think about an incident over 35 years ago when I was teaching Music in Chemung School. Chemung is a little bedroom community of Elmira NY but is part of Waverly Schools. Most of the students lived way out in the hills of Chemung County so it was rural bordering on Appalachia......... One day the week before Columbus Day the 2nd. grade class came into my room for music, and one little kid kept giggling. I finally turned to him and said Johnny, what is going on? He just giggled some more and said, "nothin'" A few minutes more I was getting a bit angry as he continued to sit and laugh. So I asked him again and told him he had better cut it out! One of the girls in the class came up to me and said, "Mr. Howard, our teacher just told us that Columbus discovered America." I look at her and said, "So?" She leaned over and whispered in my ear, "But he's an Indian!" That morning changed a lot about how I thought on several things........ ( I'm sure Jeffrey will appreciate that.)
We had a hard frost last night. Last time I checked it was only 39°F outside still. (Of course that was 3 phone calls ago....) Might get all the way up to 50° later today.
Well I have a long list of items that have to be done today before I can play with the trains, so I best get moving. See you all later!
"Coffee please"
Hey all, ... I never thought I'd end up closing the dinner .. again~ Asleep with my head on the table. This time I made sure the burners were off.. turned off the lights .. and locked the door on my way out. All of you...~! You go to bed with the chickens~! Well I got my list of things to do. Just a matter of drinking my coffee and head out. Chilly cloudy morning. You can certainly tell winter is on its way.
"oh... thankyou~ mmm coffee"
HAPPY Thanksgiving / Columbus Day!
I should get a calendar with all those "over there holidays" marked!
Zoe, I´ll just have my RBF and a handful of those delicious chocolate chip cookies!
After all the rain we had yesterday, it was a calm, even a little bit sunny day today. As I start to write this, the sun is getting prepared to set - it´ll be dark in two hours! An uneventful day - and that is perfectly OK, surprises now mean bad surprises!
Watched TV this afternoon, a nice report about Swiss railroads. My gosh, that whole country is just one big model railroad! Those train shows on TV are getting more and more popular. There is always a message attached to it - take the train and see, how beautiful mother nature is - leave the stinkin´ car in your garage! Until last year, we even had a railroad channel called BahnTV, but they closed down -
Jeff - do let us know how things are moving ahead with your foot!
A happy holiday, my friends!
Good morning ....
Canadians ...... Happy Thanksgiving. Where are Fergie and Luc?
Der John .... Thanks for explaining about the Pumkin People. It would be fun to see.
JR .... It has been a long story for you and your family. I still recall the wonderful city on you layout before the your house fire. You even had your version of Elliot's Diner. I suppose layout re-construction will find its way in your priority list.
Ulrich .... Thanks for the photos of the electric locomotives. I liked seeing them.
Have fun everybody....

EVERYWHERE LOST; WE HUSTLE OUR CABOOSE FOR YOU
Good morning, Chloe. Just a quick coffee before I head out the door.
Happy Thanksgiving to those of you north of the border.
Later, Sue
Anything is possible if you do not know what you are talking about.
Good morning all and Happy Thanksgiving to my Canadian friends and a Happy Columbus Day to my United Statesian friends. Very funny, no I didn't get you a card Zoe. Just a cup of coffee and some of Garry's ham on toast please. Thanks. I'm not sure anymore exactly why we celebrate Columbus Day. I remember as a kid in school they taught us Columbus discovered America, (and Henry Ford invented the automobile too. Both of which I learned later were WRONG! I wonder what else was wrong.) I guess there was a free day off for some and they just don't want to give it up. Think I'll take it off too in remembrance of ole Chris who just got lost and became famous. Maybe I'll go for a drive.
Columbus Day: Showers before 10am. High near 49. East southeast wind between 6 and 8 mph. Chance of precipitation is 80%. Tonight: Mostly cloudy, with a low around 38. North wind between 3 and 7 mph.
We've had our morning rain and at 40F 'twas a cold one.
DerJohn- Ah the glories of being king and the sweeping decisions we can make (sigh) Wonderful isn't it. As far as your choice on Graffiti er..., the "G" word goes, I agree. However, not being king of anyone elses world, I'll have not a say nor even a disdainful thought if someone else chooses to indulge. For it is their choosing and likes, not mine. Kinda like parking at the Walmart. But easier.
Isn't it interesting that though we choose different ways of picking days, the reason is basically the same for Thanksgiving in different countries and somehow the Turkey also gets, shall we say, the place of honor.
Barry- Sounds like a good idea. Now that a train runs I should clear the layout off. Again.
Chris- I, like John, use the exploratory method. I just measured from the corner of the room I assumed was where they started from and, within the board width that will cover, tapped in the first nail. Repeating this process every inch until the stud is found. Language of course gets harsher with each hole until usually it gets to insulting the builder of said wall. In the case on the train room, that would be.......
JR- Alright, now I feel it is safe for me to say CONGRATULATONS on getting back into the house without me jinxing it.
Jeff- Good luck at the docs.
Say does anyone else get into a "why don't you park there" discussion with the wife, girlfriend, friend, person riding in vehicle, every time you go to park in a large parking lot. (for those of you in a small town like me, I'm talking one that holds more than 10 or 15 cars and usually doesn't involve staying out of the corner that doesn't drain and gets muddy). You see, I don't parking lot cruise. Nor will I wait 5 ½ hrs for a person to load their trunk and change the diaper on the kid while holding up traffic, to get their space. I also have this apparently very annoying and non understandable habit of passing up the prime spots most times. You know the few and far between times the spaces next to the handicapped and within the first 1/3 to ½ of the row. The copilot must cram their finger into the window saying in excited disbelief and over the sound of what very well could be cracking glass, "what's wrong with that one" as I calmly reply, "some older person or disabled who couldn't get a handicapped space may need it more than me" To which they reply with that tone of total frustration, "that's nice but it won't be them, it'll be some young person that gets it." Undauntedly I reply, "well that's them not me." Usually the walk to the store through the cold or the rain is a quiet one.
Have a Great Day!!!

Good Columbus Day morning all,
Speaking of Plaster Mountains; don’t forget about the added weight. I noticed there is a minor dip in the bridge over Fox Creek on my layout. I used natural stone for the creek bed and Styrofoam and plaster for the creek banks then add the 5 pours of 1/8” polyurethane and it all adds up.My new hobby of refurbishing HO-Scale locomotives just picked up a little; I have a B&O SW and a PC GP38 sitting on my bench that needs some work.
I cut and pasted (the old fashioned way) the Senikings.com backdrops last night to poster board and gave them 3 coats of a matte finish spray clear coat.
Thoughts and prayers to those on the sick and injured list.
I have a few of his videos saved. They are very cool. That reminds me..........I have heard a lot of NS this morning. Might make a couple of mile trip and see what I can get.

blownout cylinder TMarsh Jim- Next time you're out driving around and cross a railroad track, (I would say walk up to the nearest tracks and look down them but that would be suggesting something not so legal ) and pay attention to how straight the big boys make theirs. As long as the train doesn't derail, it's straight enough. Now sit up straight at the RC and relax. Oo. That's gonna cost me and it's suppertime too. Todd: The crossing that I took the VIA locomotive from had a 9"--or so--float to it at one time. The train would go by this one spot and the track would go up/down about that amount. Now it is only ---oh---6" or so-- Now that I think of it I'm going to see if'n I can't grab me vid of that so that our group in my neighbourhood can see this thing!!

Good Morning--
We're doing a Canadian Thanksgiving thing today under the dull dull dull and COOL weather here---we're even going to see a 50% chance of showers---we actually had a t'underin'boomer last night even though none was forecast The igh will be 8C while our low tonight will be 1C---right now we are at -1C. BTW---another sign we are approaching that OTHER season-----being warned this morning to look out for black ice---
Going to clean up the trainroom a bit--more to find some tools that went MIA. I did find that I actually have 4 Dremels in here. I'm into getting some more trestles done up then I'll start figuring out the radii for the curve onto the other side of the valley---heeheehee
Jeff: Hope things turn out OK there---
Chloe, I'll have a coffee and a toasted bagel with an egg on it----I'll be over at the RC for now
Good morning. It's Monday, the 12th day of October, 2009. It's 64 and cloudy. The high is expected to be in the upper 70's and there's a chance of rain.I'll be on my way to see the foot doc later today. I anticipate a good report. I woke up with a low blood sugar level (64) but some sausage and potatoes took care of that by raising the level by about 100 points. The sausage doesn't do anything to raise the level but it sure makes the potatoes more palatable. I know there will soon come a day that I can get back to many of my normal activities and I look forward to it. The layout is showing some signs of neglect.
Good morning. Its kinda cool this morning. They are calling for a high Friday of 44 degs. Yeah, I think its time to start getting the house ready for winter.
Not much planned today. I did buy some stuff from a LHS, and maybe I can work on the layout some. Maybe even work on the house some as well.
Hope everybody is doing good, and has a good morning.
Good morning All,
Still no hook up for the puter at the house but got lots of other stuff done and the last of the cleaning/vacating on the rental. I'll have a regular and a toasted blueberry muffin split and buttered please Zoe.
Should mention the rental a bit. When we had the fire we stayed at first in motels while we sorted the insurance out and got a listof possible rentals. The folks we ended up getting the rental from had had their house on the market for over a year, had already moved to NC, and were getting very worried pulling two mortgages and so put the house on the rental list. Still shell shocked from the fire, we passed the interview and got the house - nearly new and still mostly furnished as we'd lost virtually everything on the second floor and all the attic contents. These folks have been absolutely great to us extending the agreement after the great flood and other delays and generally being understanding in our time of need. They didn't need to do any of that and we will always appreciate what they did to help out.
Keith - the aluminum screen with plaster cloth works really well for scenery though not too well if you're trying for that craggy look. I used it two layouts ago stapling it to the wood mountain outlines. I (wearing heavy gloves) wrinkled it all up to make it more pliable and realistic and to minimize the fill needed to make worn eastern type mountains and that worked well. Make sure you cover any track beneath the wire with paper to keep the plaster off and make sure the track runs are all proved and have adequate clearance (especially away from the screening) before you add the plaster. Being lazy, when I added the plaster of paris over the plaster cloth, I put some paint in the mix to keep the inevitable chips from being too noticable.
Enough delays - time to get to w..k . Final loading for Road Atlanta - the truck leaves this afternoon and we fly out Weds morning. Catch ya later, J.R.
"Hi~ I'll have the usual pleasue black"
Any night owls up at this hour? I'm sitting here writing out a list of things I need to get done tomorrow.. especially on the layout. I find just having a list of things to do, makes the next day easier for me. Seems, tonight I can remember what I need to do tomorrow...so all I have to do. is write it down, now! If you work on your layout for two weeks straight.. no matter how little you do.. but do it every day.. after two weeks it becomes habit. Its only 10 pm here... so I'm still pretty active. Although if this keeps up.. I believe it will be almost time for.. John in Nova Scotia to get up. Oh by the way..
RAY: Nice phtos.. I am inspired.~
Keith
Evening all,
Jeff Sounds like you are properly motivated to get better soon, and it sounds as if your improving. Keep at it.
Tom, some of the people at the train shows are very talented, however I just learned a secret about one of my talented friends; It took him 7 years to finish a 16 foot section of layout and it hase never been powered. I do like to run my trains, maybe that's why he brings locomotives to my house, LOL.
Been working on backdrops all night, Dorothy is not thrilled about the clear coat smell in the house right now.
