I meant it as a salute to Scandinavia in general, (yeah, I know Finland is only reluctantly a part). I am half Danish.
Maybe you ought to move a bit south where the sun comes more than a couple months a year!

no, never been there, am kind of looking for club..
hey that's great finding some one in Omaha!! what you doing this weekend? Nebraska football?
Sorry, BNSFlarson
Not a Husker fan even though I've lived in Nebraska since 1990. This weekend will be work and meeting up with some NMRA folks here in Wichita KS concerning a train show early next year and catching a bit of the Notre Dame game.
There are a couple of clubs in the Omaha area, one is over in the Rock Island depot in Council Bluffs, the other is thru the NMRA Western Heritage Division.
Scale Rail (HO Scale only) is on 87th St about 2 blocks north of F St. and Trainman's is on Leavenworth around 47th.
I only make it to Omaha once or twice a month for part of a weekend. Just enough time for 1 or 2 honey do's!
I was born in Louisiana near where Jeffry Wimberly is residing. (see earlier post in this thread). For the most part, I'm a hillbilly from the Ozark Mountains of Arkansas. Most recently, I have found myself deposited in the small hamlet of Eudora, a burgeoning bedroom community between KC and Lawrence, Kansas.
If I had my druthers, I'd be in south Alaska or the northern Rockies! I love rain, cloudy weather and snow. Shoot, I'd probably like Finland, dragons and all.
The Cedar Branch & Western--The Hillbilly Line!

Been here my whole short life
Wished I lived in Cheyenne so I could chase Heritage steam all he time
Born in Brooklyn, New York. Saw my first baseball game at Ebbet's Field, Brooklyn Dodgers. Grew up on Long Island (East Meadow and Rockville Centre.) Now I'm in Bedford, Massachusetts, a town kind of between Lexington and Concord where the better known leaders of the Revolution went when they needed to find a tavern full of drunks with muskets to confront the Redcoats.
Pdragon - I work in Woburn. I'm sure you remember the Superfund site. That's where my office is now.
Mom's family came from Sweden, and Dad's came from Scotland.
It takes an iron man to play with a toy iron horse.

To add insult to injury is the neighborhood habit of stringing epilepsy-inducing christmas lights at every godsdamned tree, bush, lamppost or twig along our street. I suppose it's ironic that I should hate wintertime, being born to a country with a copious supply thereof.
Thanks for my first really good laugh of the day...
Not AT you... WITH you..
