Okay, here's the Saturday night menu: you'll have your choice of leftover beef
stew, chilli, or pizza. Have all three out and on the warmer bar, so help your-
self.

See my "Well, Darn" thread....

Now if I could just get this smile off my face. Non-railfans are beginning to wonder.

[espeefoamer]

Well,it's L.A.s turn now.We now have several brush fires raging north in the hills in the area.One is in Chatsworth,but I havent heard aa word about whether the old SP main line is shut down.As of last night only one home had burned,and several commercial buildings.At that time the fire was only 5% contained.And it is only the beginning of fire season.

11 C translates to about 51 or 52 F. It got cooler than that here last night. Had to break out the sweatjacket for the bike ride home.

The days are supposed to get steadily warmer until Wednesday, when MC will apparently be pushing in a front of cool mountain air.

Joe or JDV, do let us know whenever you plan your Chicago/Rochelle trips! Ironically, I might be in western Michigan for Thanksgiving Day, but should be back home Friday.
(JDV, Elmhurst is somewhat of a CRC enclave, school and all.)

If these plans come to fruition, I'll be pleased. I'll be sure to ask for some hot spots to go to.
I think I've heard of Elmhearst before (in CRC circles). I'm right in the middle of one in Byron Center, Mi. Grew up in some in NY.

CW I'll take the walley with FF's and couple of rolls. OH yeah have a good weekend everybody

[rvos1979]

Morning everybody.

Been busy this week, had a bunch of rework to do on FedEx trailers all week, managed to get them all done save one, they couldn't find the rest of the aluminum floor for that unit. Next week we start in on the rework for UPS.[sigh]

Had a cool start to the day here too, the last few nights I've had to bring a jacket to work, and I might still need one today when I head out. The farmers have been getting harvest into high gear, lots of combines out in the fields, talked to my dad last weekend, I guess shelled corn is already down to 18-20% moisture, just about right for his Harvestore. He was talking about getting his combine going pretty quick (smoky little bugger, but what do you expect for something that only gets used two to three weeks out of the year?)

CW, I'll take the cod, with tartar sauce, was also looking through the jukebox, got some B.B. King and John Lee Hooker playing (the song "Lucille" is playing as I type this).

See everyone later.

CW - I love you! Chocolate cake with raspberry filling! Out of the way everybody! Mookie is on the move!

Checked the bank temp - it sez 11 degrees. That's with a C..... didn't wait to see what the "real" temp is...

[railfan619]

GOOD morning everyone well it is friday and I am off of work today which it felt so great to sleep in for a chance on a weekday but anywho I think fall has finally gotten here because over night temps around here have been droppin in to the lower 40's and even in some spot's the the upper 30's but anywho hope everyone has great day and I will be talkin to you all later [:D][:D]

[cherokee woman]

Good Friday morning everyone!! Well, here in Louisville, we got down to the
mid forties this morning. Chilly!!!! Brrr.

Joe: Thanks for getting everything started this morning. Putting some of your
hot chocolate alongside my coffee: take a sip of coffee, then a sip of hot
chocolate!! Due to the fall cleaning Mutt and I are doing, we slept in this a.m.

Breakfast: the hearty breakfast, consisting of your choice of turkey bacon,
sausage and biscuits & gravy, with fried taters and your choice of scrambled
eggs or fried eggs.

Lunch today will be fried perch, cod, whitefish w/fries and cole slaw, or beef
stew w/cornbread.

Supper tonight: beef stew w/cornbread, leftover chilli.

Dessert: chocolate cake w/raspberry filling. A little bird told me that someone
here really loves chocolate cake w/raspberry filling. So I'm in the process of
baking four of the cakes right now. They will be ready in time for lunch.

[blhanel]

No frost here, but it's certainly chilly enough. A couple of blocks away from us, a homeowner apparently made the mistake of using the fireplace for the first time in a while without cleaning or inspecting the flue. [oops]There's now a six-foot hole in the roof around the chimney, and they had to spend the night elsewhere. Made for a good show last night though!

[JDV5th]

Plenty chilly in Mich. this am too. No frost. The weatherman said we got enough of a breeze and cloud cover to keep it off, but south of GR didn't. Taken Amtrak to Chicago once. Good experience. If I go, I just have to decide where to go, what frequencies to use for my scanner, and what not. [8D][:D]
Later, JDV

[JoeKoh]

JD glad you like the pics.juice and coffee are on along with some hot chocolate.we have light frost here this morning.i've been talking to my wife about grabbing amtrak in bryan and going to chicago for a day.maybe someday.
stay safe

Yeah Joe, I've got some of them. Pretty cool, thanks! The one with the tank on it is interesting.
My wife mentioned going to Chicago for a weekend away with the family around thanksgiving. I already put my [2c] in and told her I'd like to do some trainwatching. Maybe Rochelle?

CopCar- Go Red Wings!!![8D][:D][soapbox]
Happy Friday everyone.

Garfield for President - a cat for all people. Won't do anything to screw up the office. In fact, won't do anything! Ah.....

And his beverage of choice - ? Coffee........headed there right now!

Mookie

[mudchicken]

CW - 5 Way instead of 5 Alarm with a couple of cheese coneys as a chaser.

Sorry fellow front ranger CopCar, will have to bring some back & share or get BossHen to keep playing with the recipe until the secret of Skyline or GoldStar is revealed.

[;)][;)][;)]

[Modelcar]

Gee....hope that's not representative of Muncie folks....Garfield is from near by you know....

[locomutt]

Chris,
If you like reasonably "Hot" chili,this should warm you
up just fine !!!![:-,]
