Deshler Ohio-crossroads of the B&O Matt eats your fries.YUM! Clinton st viaduct undefeated against too tall trucks!!!(voted to be called the "Clinton St. can opener").
This weekend we will see scattered showers in Southern California, temps down to 58 for a couple of days then back up to normal 70's.
Weekend menu
Nachos, Chili, fruit salad, dessert Italian lemon cream cake.
Dan: plenty of fish, even perch, so help yourself. And we fared very well last night. no one fell on the ice, and no branches/limbs came out of the pine tree (that we have noticed, anyway.
Mookie: I don't think you'd have any problem getting in or out of an SUV; you should see me getting in and out of Sarah's Jeep when I don't have my rubbermaid stool with me!! Now, that is FUNNY!!!! She and Mutt definitely have to give me a big boost up.(Plus, I believe you are definitely taller than I am (who isn't?), so you would be in and out in a jiffy.

I shall have 1/2 plate of oysters (no ???? please), hush puppys, baked beans and cole slaw; and then pecan pie for desert.
Snow in the AZ mountains today but not accumulating as it is almost warm enough to be rain, in fact the sun is breaking through now (noon).
Enjoy your day everyone

Jack,
Did you mean Rocky Mountain Oysters? Just asking.
CC' I was asking for Paula's oysters as they are reputed to have beneficial effects.
But I have partaken of the Rocky Mountain variety, and as a CO native I enjoyed them also.

Good morning.....
Dan cats do climb well if they still have their claws.we have bacon eggs and waffles coming up.Juice coffee and hot chocolate are ready to go.Hey Cw there was a note on the counter.The gatorade driver wanted to know where to park the tanker truck this year.(getting spring fever).Going to go get Matt from G+G house.weatherman says party cloudy so we will be back for pizza fest tonight.
Good Saturday morning, everyone! Joe, thanks for fixing breakfast this morning. I got waylaid by computer updates this morning.
Let's see: where to put the Gatorade tanker. For now, we'll leave it where they parked it. When Mutt gets in, we'll decide where to put it. Man, that's a biiiiiiigg tanker. That ought to last the mudchicken for awhile! Wonder if Mudchicken likes heated Gatorade.
....Just overcast this morning.....we're being told the system has long moved out towards the east. We got away with just a total of 2" of snow and seems all the sleet, etc., passed below {south}, of us.
Believe we're ok now until about Tue. evening or Wed. It is to get warmer too.
So far, I'm a little surprised at the amount of snow we've seen this season here...at our location....23 1/2". Coming close to our seasonal total avg. of 27". Yes, I know that's not much compared to the folks in snow lands....but we're only 937' ele. here too.

Well I guess we could "borrow" one of the Air Farces KC-135s and have it follow you.
IIRC, the underground Gatorade tanks are still full, so the driver is just going to have
to drop the trailer in the back lot as close to the building as possible. (make sure the
heater gets plugged in!!)
Being Crazy,keeps you from going "INSANE" !! "The light at the end of the tunnel,has been turned off due to budget cuts" NOT AFRAID A Vet., and PROUD OF IT!!
Good morning everyone--I think!
There is a huge storm heading my way and I may be knocked off line by late this afternoon from the very strong winds just like the storm in early January this year. I hope the fixed-up fencing holds up!
BRIGHT SUNSHINE AT 5600 FOOT ELEVATION IN PRESCOTT, AZ THIS AM.
WE HAVE A VA HOSPITAL HERE AND ONCE A MONTH WE TREAT SEVERAL VETS TO A POT LUCK DINNER AT AMERICAN LEGION POST 6. EVEN THOUGH THE WEATHER WAS INTERMITTANT SNOW ALL DAY YESTERDAY OUR MEMBERS SHOWED UP WITH THEIR HOME MADE GOODIES AND THE VETS LOVED IT. WE HAVE BEEN DOING THIS FOR MANY YEARS AND I THOUGH A FOOD SITE LIKE THE FLAT WHEEL CAFE WOULD LIKE TO HEAR ABOUT IT.
IF YOU ARE OUT THIS WAY COME INTO POST 6, WE ARE THE FRIENDLIEST POST AROUND. AND THERE MAY BE A RAILROADER AROUND TO SHARE SOME TRUTH WITH YOU.
JACK
We could spike the Gatorade with Red Bull...you know, give it Wiings!
Had to work until 3 AM last night. I was working Parking/Event Security for a benefit concert for a little boy whose parents don't have much cash. I heard they raised almost 35K. Pretty touching.
Gotta throw some salt down today to get rid of more ice on the walk. I caught some kind of switch cleaning machine last night in Menasha, WI lettered for WC but I haven't seen one before. I'll see about getting a pic or two in here as I process them. Maybe I'll find some time trackside tomorrow. We've got a b-day party for Misty's (fiancee) cousin tonight so I don't think I'll be back for the fest. If there's any pepperoni/sausage left over just wrap it up in plastic and stick it in the fridge. I'll be happy to 'clean it up' tomorrow!
Bright sun today - and just over freezing. We only got an inch or three from the storm that hammered the east coast. We had a system engineer flying out last night - hopefully the fact that he was headed for Charlotte means he got out somewhere near on time. The weather here was fine, but with the major NE hubs messed up, it's hard to say. The ripple effect can be far-reaching.
It's past noon - I probably should get started on the day's projects...

Hello to you all on this bright sunshiny day here in Aurora, IL. It is a relatively warm (never thought I would say that about these temperatures) 29F with very little wind so I am going to get out trackside and watch the action for a few hours.
howdy
we are back. the demolition crew is working on the deshler elevator.the crane is taking alot of whacks at the solid cement structure.meanwhile down in leipsic the I&O has completed their connection track across rt 65 but there is still along way to go west and and about 6ft of fill to put in for their track.we are ready for some pizza.
....Jack:
That program sounds like a really good feature of the Post, doing for the Vets., etc....
#6 post....Believe that's the lowest number I've heard for a Legion Post. My home Post is #257....It's back in Pennsylvania and I still maintain my membership. That one is in Stoystown, Pa.
The overcast I mentioned this morning has turned to bright sunshine and clear blue skies starting late this morning. Nice winter day.
I worked {running auto tests}, in the Kingman area many years ago and there I remember it being about 3,300' elevation. But still lots of sunshine and lots of {then}, Sante Fe traffic to watch.
Guess it's time to get our Saturday Night Pizza Fest under way. On tonight's menu:
1. Anchovie2. Goetta3. Hawaiian4. Pepperoni/mushroom5. Pepperoni/sausage/mushroom6. Supreme7. Three Meat Pizza8. Calzones
No dessert pizzas tonight, as we have plenty cobblers and pies that I made yesterday.
Sarah and I did see a little bit of sunshine, while we were out this afternoon. Not a whole lot, and it wasn't too bright, either. Good thing I forgot to get my sun glasses.

Good Sunday morning, everyone! Tom, sorry to hear you're under the weather! Hope you feel better soon.
Joe, thanks for fixing breakfast and the drinks this morning. I had trouble getting in the door this morning: someone apparently locked it.
Think I'll take a couple slices of leftover supreme pizza for my breakfast this morning. Any requests for Sunday Dinner?

Pot roast, cornbread, etc.
Couldn't get on earlier this AM - not sure why, but no matter what route I took, the Forum wouldn't come up. It's working now, though, and that's what counts.
Only 16 here right now, but the sun is out in all its glorious brightness, so I'm not complaining.
Off to the day's projects....
...Good Morning all:
It's 19 plus degrees here in Muncie....Overcast but getting lighter and to be lots of sunshine as the day moves on.
Have a little across the counter trivia to quote: Both of our vehicles have the same capacity fuel {gasoline}, tank. Today, cost to fill either one if it was totally empty: $58 plus dollars............Same situation back in 1938: $3 dollars plus....!!
....My trivia comment is based on a 18.5 gal tank.
Also, the comment is based on non-leaded regular, of which both are totally satisfied to run with.
QUENTIN, POST #'s FOR EACH STATE WERE ASSIGNED IN THE ORDER THEY WERE RECEIVED IN 1918-1919 WHEN POST 6 WAS ESTABLISHED. I WAS NOT PRESENT ON THAT OCCASION ALTHOUGH ALLEGATIONS TO THAT EFFECT OCCASIONALLY SURFACE.
WHERE IS STOYSTOWN, I COULD NOT FIND IT IN MY ROAD ATLAS? MY ANCESTORS CAME FROM SCHUYLKILL COUNTY AFTER EMIGRATING FROM IRELAND.
RAIN IN AZ THIS AM SO I WILL WATCH THE NASCAR RACE IF IT STOPS RAINING IN SO. CALIFORNIA.
Here is today's Sunday Dinner menu:
1. Pot roast w/carrots, potatoes, corn, hominy, cornbread and cole slaw.
2. Fried chicken, fried in an iron skillet, w/mashed taters & milk gravy, cole slaw, green beans, apple sauce and homemade buttermilk biscuits.
Saw a few snow flurries earlier; wonder when it will turn into the predicted rain showers. Both were predicted for today.
Jack, hope the rain lets us, so you can watch your Nascar this afternoon! Everyone have a good afternoon, whatever you plan to do.
