The little one is still with Mom this morning, but I hear some stirring, so I suspect she'll make an appearance soon. It's fun to see her develop more of a personality from day to day.
We're gonna have to start bringing in bearclaws by the box car, along with the tank cars of Gatorade. I'll take mine with some tea.

I'll take a couple of sausages, some hash browns and a doughnut this morning. Got to have something really good in my tummy, so I can manage to put up with the Tuesday Produce vultures. See you all late morning, after I get back home.
....28 degrees now....and it's to be a beautiful spring {like}, day here.

day today. Which is fine. I have almost 200 pics to go through from yesterday. I went railfanning for 8.5 hours and got some really, really nice pictures and talked to some pretty cool folks. It was nice to see some GEVOs in fresh/clean paint.
present and accounted for....
Got a little bidnez going on here.

There's still plenty of breakfast for our West Coast patrons; for Mid West and East Coast, there's plenty of leftovers from Sunday Dinner. It's warmed up and on the warmer bar with the rest of the breakfast menu.
Headache has eased up, but now I'm feeling all stuffed up in the ole noggin and nasal cavities. Can't seem to win for losing!!
Hope you all have a good afternoon, and hope some of our regulars who seem to be MIA will soon show up in here!!
Thanks for having breakfast on Paula. I will have scrambled eggs, sausage and a bear claw, plus my black coffee.
Back from Phoenix where it was 80 yesterday. The desert it beautiful now because of the moisture from the past 75 days. The desert flowers are having their best showing in several years, but in another 45 days it will be the usual bleak and dry desert.
...Bright sunshine in my window here and temps climbing a bit. Above freezing so snow is retreating. See some grass sticking up thru it in the back yard. Streets wet or dry, but free of any snow. Tomorrow is to be really nice into the 40's.
morning
cool morning but no extra snow.Cw thanks for breakfast.time to get a nap while matt goes to school.
Good Monday morning. Larry, even as an aunt, I remember those every two hour feedings with one of my nephews. You hardly get anything else done, and Little Mama is wiped out! Good thing they have Gramps staying an extra day. And we'll look forward to the Chicken Dinner next Sunday!
Coffee, and all the other beverages are ready to go this morning. On the warmer bar: turkey bacon, oatmeal, toast, scrambled eggs, sausage, turkey sausage, tater tots, bear claws and bagels.
Hope everyone is able to make it back in today, and that you all had a very good weekend.
Sleep? What's that? Actually, I'm doing fine, but the new parents are taking a beating already. Something about those every-two-hour feedings... Gramp's staying an extra day to help out (when helping out is holding the little sweetheart, how can I miss?).
Another major springtime event happens next weekend - my fire department's annual St Patty's Day Chicken Barbeque. It's on Sunday, and there's plenty of chicken reserved for the Cafe.

.....Congrats to G'pa.....Muncie has low 20's temps right now and this upcoming week, it is to get waaaaay warmer.
Streets and roads are mostly dry now.
Cherry bloosoms can't be far behind around the Potomac and DC.
Almost all clocks are set properly in this house....3 of them set themselves, including my wristwatch. Have 2 or so to set manually yet, and then that is finished for some months.
Well after a mostly wet ride (with some snow on the north end) I arrived in MD to sunny skies and got to my son's place before they got home with the baby. That worked out well, as I took care of the dogs before they arrived.
She's a little sweetie, and I've gotten plenty of "hold time" in with her (and plenty of hugs!). Even got to give her a bottle for a little bit.
I'll get a picture or two out when I get back to my other computer - I don't think the 6 Mb files would set well here on forum.
Time to check the clocks - everybody is on "flex time" in this house right now.
Good Sunday morning, folks! Hope everyone remembered to set their clocks up an hour. We did (well, a couple still need to be done).
Coffee, hot chocolate, hot cider and hot tea are ready, and I'm getting breakfast ready: turkey bacon, sausage, scrambled eggs, homemade buttermilk biscuits, sausage gravy, your choice of hash browns or home fries; or, you can have oatmeal & toast with a couple strips of bacon.
I only know of two local churches that are having services this morning: one out in the east end area, and the church across the street from us. Have a great day, and if anyone has any suggestions for Sunday Dinner this afternoon, please let me know, so I can get started on it.
The Blue Ridge or the gulfsteam seem to have shielded us in DC from all the rough weather this winter. I saw crocuses last week! I keep longing for my Reading PA childhood winters, when battling the snow and walking in the vehicle-less streets to school or Mass was a frequent event.
I'm not ready to move to Buffalo but Hagerstown Md has a certain appeal.

rixflix aka Captain Video. Blessed be Jean Shepherd and all His works!!! Hooray for 1939, the all time movie year!!! I took that ride on the Reading but my Baby caught the Katy and left me a mule to ride.
Cw I have moved the clocks ahead in here for the time change.hope Mutt is feeling better.the snow has moved eastward.A lot of church services east of I-75 are cancelled.the girls state basketball tournament is postponed until monday.going to get cold tonight.
Good afternoon everyone. Thanks for the calzone!
Weather is getting much better now--it's 71 degrees outside and sunny as I type this.
Joe, got the pizza cutters out, here's one for you. Thanks for helping, Joe! As you can see, I made four extra large pizzas of each of the following:
1. Anchovie2. Cheese3. Goetta4. Hawaiian5. Pepperoni/mushroom6. Pepperoni/sausage/mushroom7. Supreme8. Calzones
We'll slice up two of each kind, and put out on the warmer bar. Leave the other two of each kind and see if we need to pop them in the oven later on tonight.
Quentin, between Sarah working, and other activities, she hasn't had time to get in here. Hopefully, one of these days, things might slow up a little bit, and she'll be able to drop by.
Has anyone seen or heard from the following: Jay, Ray and Tom?!?! They seem to have been MIA lately.
here cw I'll help you with the pizzas.the snow has stopped here in nw ohio but we still have a foot drift in our back yard.That is just with about 2 inches of snow.we got lucky this time.can't wait to spring ahead tonight.
....Sarah seems to have lost interest in the forum. Perhaps the work schedule has influnced that. Just don't see her on here much anymore.
It is getting so bright here now so the cloud layer must be moving on....The snow has stopped. We might have {overnight and this morning}, a total of 4 to 5" of the stuff....It seems like a very light, dry snow....But still that much, is too much....anytime. 25.3 degrees now.....Even being below freezing, neighbor across the street had just finished shoveling his driveway and now already it is half melted right down to the concrete. Sun {even thru the light clouds}, now has power...
Joe, Mutt said he's already checked the smoke detectors here at the Cafe: everything's good to go, he replaced the batteries, and he's got extra batteries on hand. Here at home, we have the detectors that are good for ten years, and we've got a couple years to go on them. Then, we'll have to replace the detectors.
I'm busy making up the pizzas for tonight, Sarah's shoveling the steps and sidewalks around the house, and Mutt's trying to get over a very bad headache he woke up with this morning. That's why no one has seen him in here this morning.
