Also an at-work shot - here I'm operating a miniature electric staff instrument on a single-line section of my railway.



Cheers,

[Then again why not put a yoke on the horses and let them do the heavy work? LOL ]

***Never trained any of our horses for harness, but there are a couple neighbors around with mule teams that could do the job. Then again, I would prefer not having anything to do with their owners or their backwards (cruel) methods. Those who do not use natural horsemanship training these days are either ignorant, lazy or just plain cruel. And around here there are some folks who fall into all of those catagories. My two bits!

Hey Rob,  

Are those rocks made of pink foam or blue?  Laugh [(-D]

I've got one of those cousins too. The rocks you're carrying are about as big as I can can handle. you make it look easy. Then again why not put a yoke on the horses and let them do the heavy work? LOL

Looked for the photo of me in the cab of an old Climax loco, couldn't find it. Then looked for the photo of me with shaved head and Chicken Pox, found it, but decided it was just too grusome to post, even as a joke. Settled on a couple of me playing with my "Dam rocks". (Built a rock dam in our creek a couple years ago to give our horses a nice watering hole)

I call this second photo, "Stop, wait, let me focus, hold it, wait, not yet, hold it..." The wife made me hold this pose at the end of a very long carry for what seamed like an eternity. Perhaps she was trying to kill me?LOL

So why didn't you update us with your - "self"?

A pitty so many people have to get "cute" and seem to be compelled to quote other photos.  It's not like we didn't see the photo the first time it was posted. 

Now I'll have to find a photo of my "self".

Here I am running UP 1995, the CNW heritage engine to the thrill of hundreds of fans chasing my train, waving to them as we head eastbound on train MCBPR! Just kidding LOL, it is actually on display at Franklin Park Railroad Daze, May 19th, 2007. I hear people complain about the ACes, but by what I saw I would love to really run these engines.

You asked for it....

Onstage with the band at the Roberts Orpheum Theatre, St. Louis, Feb. 2006.  I'm on the right looking confused....

Same location and date, I'm on the riser to the right, piloting my synthesizer rig.
