As soon as I'm done with them. I want them back so I can do the crossword during lunch, though!

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").
Good Tuesday morning, everyone. Most of the rain is out of here; but, today we're to have drizzle and light rain off and on all day. Our temp this morning is 50 and we're only going to 55 for a high, then back down into the low to mid 40s for tonight. Guess I'll need my rain coat for Tuesday Produce this morning. When I was going to bed around 10 p.m. last night, it was really pouring down.
Coffee, juices and hot water for tea are ready. On the warmer bar this morning: turkey bacon, sausage, cereal, toast and some fresh fruit.
Mookie, here's you coffee mug, just waiting to pour coffee in it, whenever you get in. You all take care and have a good morning. See you all after Produce.
bubbajustin But it rained cats and dogs today didn't it Quintion! I mean it rained! Well stay safe everybody!
Yes, it was a rainy day....sometimes it really poured it down. Just a little lightning earlier this evening, but nothing to be concerned about. Probably tomorrow will be doing much the same, and Wednesday we're to see a warmer and sunnier day...actually, several of them.
Quentin
It looks like we are gonna have lightning, thunder and/or whatever for the next 24 hours, at least. there are, at present, no watches, thankfully. The low country (Charleston, etc) appears to be getting a pasting, now. There seems to be a high over the gulf and it is funneling the moisture this way. The wireless stays disconnected another day. Yall take care

Sun's out here. None to warm (mid to high 40's), but a beautiful day, nonetheless.
Need to factor in that two hours of beauty sleep I lost last night and get a few projects done.
Right now the Dal is informing me that he didn't get his usual treat when I got home. Loudly, I might add....
HI CW! Supper is good! We have a tornado warning in our state too. Not for us thankfully. But it rained cats and dogs today didn't it Quintion! I mean it rained! Well stay safe everybody!

Made it back from the library, with an armload of books for Walt and myself. Not long after I returned home, the first storm rolled through. This was around 11:40, 11:45. Now, at 5:23 p.m., we've been at it again since between 3 & 3:30: thunder, lightning, thunderstorm watches, warnings, tornado watches/warnings. We even had hail: pea size, quarter size, and hominy size. Our yard was almost covered (at least what I could see from the front window in the living room). We're still under a tornado watch until 9 p.m. tonight. In about 10 - 12 minutes, we got 3/4 in. of rain.
Supper tonight: leftover roast beef, taters & carrots w/green beans, cole slaw, and whatever other veggies you want. And we even have Easter cupcakes left for dessert.
Evening all!
My dad has his last fiermans class tonight. Then he takes the test. Looking forward to dinner CW!
Mookie And still working with grills on balconies and too close to the house.
I'd say "grills on balconies" are somewhat standard fare here in the university area of Muncie....Often wondered how they get away with such actions. And crowded rented houses by students....A recipe for desaster.
Tree - know how that pre-warning sounds here: often the police dispatcher will get it on the air before the fire dispatcher (they sit in same room) and I will hear (usually medical) before the station does. We have had some pretty rough fires here lately. I thought they would quit after Halloween and Christmas - those seem to be the biggie times, but have lost a couple of houses, due to the "duh factor". And still working with grills on balconies and too close to the house.
Modelcarwhy a dozen or so armed "protectors" couldn't be aboard while passing through such dangerous pasage ways. Armed men on deck certainly would have the advantage over men trying to scale up the side of a ship to come aboard on an offensive mission.
Agreed whole heartedly. There seems to be a phobia in the free world about empowering the military and/or armed guards who are often given unloaded weapons to guard themselves with. When facing a savage and unyielding enemy, we should worry less about their safety and comfort and more about stopping them whatever the cost. I see now that they are angry and swearing "revenge".... It should be interesting to see what they come up with next.
Bright sunshine in AZ mountains and a brilliant blue sky this AM with a high expected in the low 70's. We received about 1/2 inch of rain (yes I know that is just heavy dew for some of you) but it fell slowly and was appreciated.
I'm awake! I'm awake! Barely...
Up at 0428 (the pager is unforgiving - no "snooze button" on it) for a reported structure fire. Fortunately, we got a good hit and kept damage to a minumum.
Just to show that I do listen to the scanner subconsciously - our dispatchers "pre-announce" most calls. That means they list who should respond and where before they start sending out the tones that trip our pagers. I apparently heard the pre-announce, because I was awake when the pager blatted.
Cell phone text from son this morning - he and his family are enjoying the Easter Egg roll at the White House today.
Lunch Time!
grampaw pettiboneConvoys defeated the uboats in two world wars and will beat those rag tag pirates too. Nuff sed
I agree Tom....convoys would be a deterrent. And I believe it is time to have {at least some of the free world}, nations come together and organize a workable, serious plan of attact.
If cargo ships carry value loadings of up to 100's of millions of dollars, it boggles my mind why a dozen or so armed "protectors" couldn't be aboard while passing through such dangerous pasage ways. Armed men on deck certainly would have the advantage over men trying to scale up the side of a ship to come aboard on an offensive mission.
That's one point, but It seems the free nations must attack {in some manner}, the "nest" of these thugs and lawless crooks in order to begin to put a stop to it all. Of course, what seems to be a deeper seated problem is the lawless area they are operating from...Samolia itself....which seems to have no government in control....actually no centrial government, period.
Smart intellegent minds of {nations}, need to gather and create a plan of attact...This activity of pirates in our modern world is unacceptable.
Weather for our Monday: Rain and a bit of wind. 40 degrees. Will be similar today, tonight and tomorrow, with the system beginning to head east and usher in nice sunny, warmer weather for at least the next 4 days.
Well, allergy season is a big hit here at our house. It is raining very nicely outside and my eyes are running equally as well inside. Ugh.
Tree - next year dress as a bunny or an Easter egg so we can get a better look.
BNSF running a little better yesterday afternoon. Lots of greenies going in and out! Joe - sent DE back to you full and ready to go. Also saw a Herzog ballast/riprap train headed east. About 50 cars. Just the engine and the cars and I couldn't tell if they were loaded or not. But was exciting to see something different.
Must rest mah eyes - (I can type with them closed!)
Tom, when I'd heard that this ship captain had been rescued by our U.S. Navy Seals, I clapped my hands. These pirate-thugs got what they deserved.
Morning everybody. At present, 50 and PC in Carolina, with thunder forecast for later and a high, I think, of 82. The wireless will stay disconnected till that passes. As a former Navy man, I am proud of our service and the way it handled the situation off Somalia. For the life of me tho, I can't understand why convoys have not been instituted. Convoys defeated the uboats in two world wars and will beat those rag tag pirates too. Nuff sed
Morning
getting Matt ready to go on the bus.he is on time today.Cw thanks for breakfast.Going to be a rainy day today so we will help mamma with chores.I will work on getting the recipie for you as well.
Good Monday morning, everyone. Not too bad a start this morning, rain hasn't reached us yet. But it's on the way in. Our current temp at 6:48 is about 50, 51 degrees.
Larry, I agree with Quentin: believe I saw you in the background, on the left side, in the background of the video.
Coffee, juices, and hot water for tea are ready. And on the warmer bar this morning: bagels, bear claws, turkey bacon, sausage, scrambled eggs and hash browns.
Going to be making a trip to the library this morning, and will try to beat the rain drops, and get back home before it gets too wet outside. We have a chance of some thunderstorms later on. Hopefully, I'll be able to get back home before the storms hit. But just in case, there's plenty of leftovers from Sunday Dinner for you all for lunch.
You all enjoy breakfast, and have a good morning.
Believe I caught a glimpse of you Larry, in the background on the left side of the pic.....
Nice day here, if a bit cool.
A story about what I was doing Saturday: http://news10now.com/content/top_stories/137315/taking-a-ride-on-the-easter-bunny-express/Default.aspx. You can just catch a long-distance glimpse of me during the interview with the organizer. And if I didn't tell you it was me, you wouldn't be able to tell...
Spent the better part of the day with daughter and SIL. Church, then dinner. Next time I see her she'll be holding the baby.
Willy, Ray, and Justin: I agree with you on today.
I'm really glad you all are enjoying your Easter Sunday Dinner. We here in Louisville are getting ready to eat our dinner in just a few minutes.
Joe, I have never heard of a hickory nut cake before. Could you possibly email me the recipe??
So far on here, in the Cafe, it looks like everyone is enjoying their holiday. Everyone take care,and have a very good evening.
Howdy
a nice dry Easter for a change.After church we spent time at G+G house.Grandma made a hickory nut cake for dessert.She also made Matt a chocolate cake just in case.He ate some of both along with some strawberries.We are going to just relax tonight since we don't have to work.Cw I might have a ham sandwhich later but I am still full from lunch.
Joe
A snowy Easter in the Maritimes, but we made it to church and then on to our last stop before taking to the rails again. A beautiful day, as we celebrated the Resurrection of our Lord.
Johnny
Ok everyone here thay are. These are the last pictures that camra will ever take! These are BNSF ES44DC's. The lead one is smoking for some reason in one of the shots. I thought these locomotives were supposed to be fuel Efficant.? Oh well I hope you guy's enjoy them! What do you guy's think?
Amen CP! Our god has rosen from the dead and the stone has been roled away! He has died for our sins! "For god sol loved the world that he gave his only beggotn son that we might have everlasting life!"
Anyway I have a thing I need god to help me with right now. Not to sound like a whiney butt but I sprained my ankle yesterday. I was on a service road by the SIA plant in Lafayette shooting 2 new BNSF ES44DC's when I stepped in a mud hole! It is swelled up. It hurts and I.... GOT A REALLY GOOD SHOT OF THEM!!!!! Yah It is awesome! Mrs. Mook, I will put them on here for you too see when I get them downloaded. The sad part is when I fell I smashed my good camra. Sscreen & lens is busted out of it. I still have the old one though. Mom isn't really that upset so I guess I was lucky I didn't get grounded. CW, supper is good!
Talk at you guys later,
Justin
Yes, Willie, we as Christians should not be afraid, nor ashamed to proclaim and declare that Christ Jesus has risen from the dead! His blood was shed for all of us at Calvary, "and even while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us. Romans 5:8
