It's staying South and West of us for now, but after midnight and on into tomorrow,

You'll be back for a snack later! You know what they say about Chinese food.
Did I see Hawaiian on the warmer?

Rained all day today - only stopped a couple of times for just a few minutes, but we still managed to eat lunch out, have coffee out and sit in the park for awhile. Then home for a quick nap and out for the chow mein.
Driver gave me a card a long time ago - had a covered wagon on the front - it said "Ate Out Again".... inside it said "It was Good". He said that was becoming our lifestyle! Can't find a thing wrong with that!

Well, I've gotten everything cleaned off the warmer bar, from breakfast, and have gotten the pizzas made up, and am taking them out of the oven now. On tonight's menu:
1. Anchovie2. Cheese3. Pepperoni/mushroom4. Supreme5. Hawaiian6. Goetta7. Pepperoni/sausage/mushroom8. Calzones
Dessert pizzas for tonight: apple, cherry, peach and strawberry
Cannonball, thanks for the wishes. They're very much appreciated. Sorry to hear about your modem problems. Going to knock on wood, that ours keeps working!
Joe, thanks for making breakfast this morning! Everything looks real good, think I'll have a little bit of everything.
Tom, we had our oak tree cut down last year. It had too many limbs falling out of it, every time we had a thunderstorm, and we were afraid one of them would hit the house. It was almost exact center of the backyard. But, we're still doing battle with the squirrels. And hope you back is feeling better. Back aches are no fun for anyone.
Our weather today is going to be on the cool side: it's currently in the mid to upper 50s, and our high today will be around 73 or 74.
You all have a good day, and I'll be back in later, to start making up the pizzas and calzones for tonight.
.....Tom, you need to have some anti mosquitoe spray and not let them "rob" you of your favorite spot to observe the nice evening.
Seems like you will get rather warm there today. We're coming off a few days of overcast and off and on rain {which we needed}, and it will start to warm back up again.
The rain has brought up new grass we planted {25 or so lbs.}, to fill in damaged spots done by last season's drought. Like to keep my yard really nice. Once brought up our area on satellite and it was very evident we had the darkest green lawn on our street here in our addition....It surprised me but the image was sure convincing. Could even see my John Deere sitting out on the driveway where I park it each mowing to clean it off after the mowing.

....What...again.....No one in here....47 degrees right now and the sun is peeking up over trees and appears we'll have a sunny day. Hear a train in the distance {on Frankfort line}, which is about a mile away. So perhaps a nice Saturday in the making.
Maybe even a yard mowing day. Still only one Humming bird has been seen.....We're beginning to wonder if he was just passing thru on the way north.....??
Everyone have a good weekend.
happy train day.Juice coffee and rolls are ready.Bacon eggs and waffles will be coming up soon.Busy day.Matt has a ballgame then we help a friend move to a new house.the only train thing we will see today is the maw mainline.maybe i can take the scanner and listen in on trips back and forth.
CW ; Glad you are OK ~~~ On 5-5- @7: 18 one of the modems on the wireless went PHFFFT. On 7:19 pm tried to reboot~~~ no luck. The wireless lad come today at 3:15pm , plugged in a new modem . Now is time to look at 46 e mails . Sorry to have dissapeard , hope you have a full recovery. The best of blessings to you.
Respectfully, Cannonball
Y6bs evergreen in my mind
Finally finished my class at work. I am now an ergonomics expert!
Our Mother's Day brunch train was cancelled - guess nobody's mom wanted to brunch on the train. I would have liked to qork it - we would have covered some track I'm not familiar with yet, but I have plenty to do right here at home.
With any luck, the weather will hold. Nice and sunny right now, if cool, and the rain that showed up in the long term forecasts earlier in the week isn't forecast now.
I believe I'll have seconds...
Matt will take the fries. our road is now re-opened where they replaced a culvert.tommorow is a busy day.Cw glad things went good at the doctors.
I am now back from the doctor's! Doc said everything is a-o.k., everything regarding my heart in the normal range. So, I guess it's anyone's guess why I had the anxiety attack!! Had to sit in the waiting room for 45 minutes, before I was taken in the back, for weight, and bp, then to an exam room. Glad everything checked out all right.
Now that I'm back, I'll take a couple pieces of cod, a couple of hushpuppies, and a cup of coffee. Then, maybe I'll have a slice of apple pie. Think I'll forego the fries today.
cool start.highs in the 60's today.matt is off to school.going to get the mower out later.As we are going to be busy Sunday happy mothers day to everyone and everyones mom.Time to run some errands.
Good Friday morning, everyone! Quentin, I'm in now. Did manage to sleep in (and everyone else here at home are still asleep).
I've set out doughnuts and danish for this morning, made fresh juice, and have water heating for hot tea. And there's also the pre-requisite bagels and bear claws on the counter, also.
Not too sure about today and tomorrow, but they are predicting that it'll be a very wet Mothers Day around here Sunday.
I won't be around much today until sometime this afternoon: go to my primary care doctor, at 11:45, for a post hospital follow-up appointment. So maybe one of you can take care of our Friday Fish Fry for today.
I'm not part of the regular crew, but I'm here.
....Boy, the regular crew must be sleeping. 7:06 and no one here yet.
50.6 temp up here in Muncie and overcast. But believe the rain has passed....even sunshine later and the coming weekend.
The rain we did get was well needed. Still haven't peeked at my rain gauge. Must do that on the way out for the paper.
Edit: Rain gauge....1.65" last 30 hrs.

Kind of figured that one, typical military.
Thanks Willy for posting that link.

Here is a link to a photo of your locomotive from Railpictures.net:

Otherwise, just do a search on the Railpictures.net homepage for "CSX GP15" and you'll get lots of other photos.

thanks for supper tonight.Most of the rain has stayed to our south today.if things go right they will be able to fill in the rest of our road tommorow.time to get ready for work.
Ray, thanks for providing dessert for tonight. Mutt has taken care of the supper menu:
His spaghetti casserole, w/garlic bread (there's about 6 large loaves), and garden salads.
Think after I eat some of the casserole and garlic bread, I'll take a bowl of orange sherbet for dessert.
