Here's your chance to own a real Depot/Coffee shop. The Boxcar Restaurant in Erving Mass, on the former B&M, now Guilford main line (10+/- trains a day) is for sale for $225,000. It is the former B&M Erving station.

A REAL restaurant? Where is the fun in that? The help here says it is hard enough to run this place. [C=:-)][dinner][(-D][(-D]

Good morning everyone! Decided to make a late trip into the Diner this
morning, since there's usually no one in early on weekends (except for
Mutt and myself).

Saturday brunch: country fried steak, biscuits and gravy, scrambled eggs,
strawberry jam and grape jelly. OH! there's also some apple butter to go
on those biscuits.

Well I'm glad everything got cleared up in terms of whats on the menu for tonight, PIZZA. I could use some of that.

I could also use some rain right now which I am getting here in the great state of PA. It was commin' down hard a min ago now it let up a bit. I think it's going to start up again a little later. The funny thing is that I really wasn't expecting rain today but, I got it!! That was a real nice suprise! Hopefully the powe won't go out like it did last time we got hard rain. Ya know that happens all the time here maybe I should call up PECO and give them a piece of my mind.

Last night I went to an Eagles game yesterday at Lincoln Feild in south Philly. That was a awsome game, we won 27 to 17 and we were playing the Bengals, a team I'm not to heaped up about myself. I'm suprised I didn't lose my voice after all that screaming, and chanting I was doing yesterday. For those of you that follow football. Yes TO did play and I have to say he played really well, McNabb threw to him with no problems. TO scored our first touchdown. So, he didn't get booed. Unfortunitly, the 3 quarter started to get borring, too many flags and too many mistakes on Philadelphia's part but, we cleaned house.

Not doing too much today, sitting in the house looking at the storm and maybe a movie or two.

Everybody, hope you all enjoy the pizzas tonight. Have made several different
varieties, and they're all on the warmer bar.

Does anyone have a recipe for fixing grilled pizzas? Since next weekend is our
weekend long grilling for the holiday weekend, maybe we can figure out a way
to grill pizzas next Saturday.

Guess I better get the grilles tuned up - sounds like they'll be getting a workout. Got some salt potatoes sitting around the house - they're good with just about anything barbequed...

Actually, Mutt put out all the Sunday brunch menu.

Sunday supper menu: Roast beef, potatoes and carrots. Then, later on
tonight, everyone can have roast beef sandwiches.

Dessert will be: pineapple upside down cake.

Hi all, sorry it's been so long since I last checked in. It's been pretty busy around here what with cleanup from the tornadoes, the townships and villages have been burning all the deadfall and trees taken down, and the building contractors are gearing up for rebuilding all the homes.

CW, the roast beef sounds good, would it be possible to get some au jus to go with it, or is the roast beef already dripping with sauce? Thanks in advance, I appreciate it.

Sarah, at least the Eagles are doing better than the Packers, they got creamed on Friday, 27 to 3. I'm not thrilled at the prospects for this season. I can't wait for the Badgers to start playing, though.

Catch y'all later.

Well Yes Randy the Eagles are doing better than the Packers so far. Beleive it or not I'm a huge Packers fan too. I liked Green Bay way before the Eagles and I wasn't even living in up there I was living in Philadelphia. Interesting huh?? Now are you referring to the Eagles Bengals game on friday?? With the score 27 to 3. Yes that was terrible for the Bengals but, good for us. The final score was 27 to 17, in the fourth quarter we let them get a touchdown, so they wouldn't be humiliated. lol Guess What this was just Pre Season too.

I think I will go with that o so wonderful Roast beef, potatoes and carrots now if its ready or when ever it will be ready.

Not doing too much today just sitting in the house chillin' listing to Staind' s cd dysfunction. I'm thinking about watching a movie, but don't know which one to watch. I have so many movies I don't know what to do with them.

Afternoon all!! Been awhile.
CUBS WIN! CUBS WIN! (it's about time ) [banghead] Was nervous with Dempster coming in to close with 11 run lead. [(-D]
Am going to have to stop in more often. I see I missed chicken and dumplings.[:(!]
CW, any leftovers? please, please, pretty please! If not , bring on the roast beef!!!!!!!!
Been a hectic week with work, stepdaughter back in hospital briefly. Got a viral infection. Guess that's a tough one for diabetics too. Anyway, she's back home now recovering.
Got to see the train that is Erics photo come thru Erie. All I got was a bad pic with a disposable. I've got to go digital. This upgrading to the 21st century is hard for a dinosaur like me.
Does anyone want some squirrel for our grillout this weekend? Has cooled off enough to finally go "tree rat" hunting. I usually find a nice sunny spot and sit down against a tree and wait for them to come to me. In squirrel hunter language that translates into:
"It was sunny and warm, peaceful in the woods, so I fell asleep for two hours. Now I'll tell everyone that the Squirrels just weren't out" Am going to try to get ot this week after work, so if anyone wants some for this weekend, let me know and I'll try to stay awake!
Well, going to go wax the car, so I'll stop in later tonight for a cold Dew. Willy
