Chris - I can travel very cheap looking at your pictures. I have been places I would never see otherwise. I appreciate it!

Joe, thanks for getting the stuff for bean and vegetable soup. That really
sounds good.

Our wind right now is about 60mph. Think it might be gusting more than
that at times. Have heard that a couple of counties in our area have
postponed events/closed schools early, preparing for the stuff that's
heading this way.

Hopefully, we won't be losing power or anything, so we can keep everybody
posted on what's happening around here.

Got some more apples at Produce this morning. Looks like I'm going to
be baking a lot of apple pies, and then freezing them. Will also have some
cooked apples to go with the soups tonight.

Chris, I'm afraid the weather is preceding you on your trip this time.....

Started raining here a couple hours ago, supposed to change over to snow later tonight, get about 1 to 2 inches of the stuff, and the winds are going to pick up to about 45-50 mph. Should be an interesting ride home from work at 2am tonite. I'd be surprised if I see a snowplow or salt truck out tonight.

Ah, yes. You gotta love winter[:-^][swg]

Mookie, you make me [:I]. I mostly shoot for myself but it always makes my day to know that someone else appreciates the pictures! Thanks!

Randy, I'm a happy camper now. I can arrive in Naperville quite happily. Had I brought in the weather, I'd be blamed for it the minute I stepped off the train. If it's already there, they can't blame me too much for it, right? [;)]

It's already here--I'm still hoping for some moderation (or at least some drying out) by next week. Unfortunately, this weather, temperature-wise, is very seasonable. We've just been spoiled.

Calendar's still wide open for next Tuesday.

The rain just changed over to snow here within the last half hour- BIG WET flakes. Hope the pavement's warm enough to melt it all, as I don't have the snow blower ready yet...

I watched the noon news today, it was 75 here in Central Arkansas and 61 in Dallas. About 2 pm a cold front came through. The temp is now about 55 here and 60 in Dallas. Oklahoma City is reporting well, can't get aol weather/weather channel to work right now, but I think it was in the 40s there.

Tonight's lows in the lower 30, with tomorrow's low in the upper 20s. And just last week we were setting record highs. It is time for mother nature to put down that bottle she has been drinking and start sobering up. It would be nice to have some fall between the air conditioning and heat time.

Well this forum missed last night trolling in two of the other forums. My favorite topic that the troll started was, "Boxers or Briefs". lol [:D] [:D] [:D] I just could not decide so I didn't vote in his poll. [;)] [8D] [:D] You think I should start it back up? [8] [:0] [B)] [}:)] [:p] [;)] Of course his topic, "Do Classic Trains Suck" (in the Classic Trains forum) went over like a lead balloon. Wonder why? [;)] After all was said and done I believe that the person who opened the account was one person and the troller from last night was possibly a little brother. The account was open about the 25 of October with one geniune post then last night tons of nonsense. I really believe it was two seperate people. However his story changed several times so it is hard to know the truth. Anyway Bergie cleaned house and all is back to normal now.

Well I got about 3 hours of sleep this morning and woke up in time for the news at noon. That is most likely all the sleep I will get before going to work tonight at 10 pm.

Now time to do some things around the house. Where is that maid anyway? (I still can't find the automatic self house cleaning button either, Mookie [;)] )


I tried to post that earlier and my computer went out on strike. [:(!] [:(!] [:(!]
Well I guess better late than never.

[Junctionfan]

I say Boxers...........sorry I wasn't hear last night.[:D][:I]

[CSXrules4eva]

Wow it seems to me like everyone is having bad weather but, the state of PA. It was supossed to rain here today but, it didn't it got up to around 66 degrees here!! Now, they are saying that it's suposed to be raining here tomorrow. We'll see about that one.

Jim, you seriouly need to get more sleep brother.

[cherokee woman]

Joe, thanks again for taking care of supper. Think I'll have a bowl of the
vegetable soup. Then, maybe later on tonight, I'll take a small bowl of
the bean soup.

[CopCarSS]

Willy and Carl,

You've got mail!

We now return you to your normally scheduled forum browsing!

[blhanel]

Hey, did the diner survive that latest round of storms? The radar over the last couple of hours sure looked colorful down there...

The snow quit here, only got about 1/2 an inch. Which is just fine with me, winter can wait another month.

If it makes you feel any better, it was raining and cold when I stepped off the train Sunday night. Wouldn't want you to feel left out of the weather scene.[:)][:)]

Um, it's been sunny all week here.

[cherokee woman]

Good Wednesday morning, all! Well, looks like we made it through all the messy
weather yesterday afternoon, and last night. We were definitely blessed. Things
could have been much, much worse. Brian, glad you didn't get too much of the
snow. Our current temp this morning is 43. Say it'll be 42 at noontime, then drop
to around 37 around 5 p.m., I believe is what I heard on the news this morning.

Breakfast: nice hot oatmeal w/toast, turkey bacon, sausage, biscuits w/sausage
gravy, fried taters, hash brown, scrambled eggs, and homemade applesauce.

Lunch: your choice of burgers & fries, tuna melt casserole.

Supper tonight: chicken and dumplings.

Everyone have a good day, and stay warm and dry (if the rain we had last
night is coming your way today).

[Mookie]

CW - glad to hear you are ok. I was watching the weather map and looks like everyone east of us got some kind of a thumping. Last I looked, Modelcar was in for a big storm.

Had frozen locks to deal with this morning. Ah yes - winter! But at least it isn't icy - yet!

I made up some different quiches last nite, so brought in some - bacon, ham, all cheese, kibble and a veggie one for our veggie lovers. We can serve them with a side of mixed fruit - most men never eat enough fruit or veggies - driver included. And a bottle of vitamins - everyone take one!

Mother Mookie!

[tree68]

Sarah - Duck!

Sunny, warm, and windy here this morning, but the radar shows more rain lurking just offshore over Lake Ontario. Forecast high is supposed to approach 70, but dump down to 50 when the cold front passes.

Wouldn't mind a few more rumbles of thunder this year, but we can do without all the really nasty stuff that's been happening west of us.

I like fruit - especially melon. The problem is that in a household of one I often tire of this edition of the fruit before I run out of it... Quiche sounds good, though. Think I'll mix up some of the ham, bacon, and cheese.

[blhanel]

BRRRRRR!!!! The walk into work from the parking lot was BRUTAL this morning. My thermometer said 24 degrees, but it feels more like ZERO with this nasty wind. Didn't get much more snow during the night, but with the temp where it is we still have 1/2 an inch on the ground from yesterday.

Stay warm, everybody!

-30 in some parts of Canada today.
With a little sun I can still work on my tan.

[CopCarSS]

Good Morning Everyone,

Well, I'm off to Chicagoland as of tonight. Hot dog! Looking forward to meeting up with a couple of our forum members, here!

Meanwhile, I finally did get all my shots edited from my last adventure back on the 5th. They're up at: http://www.pbase.com/copcarss/rmnp_11505 Not as great as I was hoping, but mildly interesting. There's a new shot of yours truly, that also now graces my profile here at Trains.com. I know it's a little late for Halloween, but if you want to see an ugly creature, you can go check it out.

Well, I'll try to check in later today before I head out, but if I don't, I'll catch you all in Chi-town!

[cherokee woman]

Mookie, thank you so much for bring in the various queches. They're always
a welcome addition to our menu!

Getting ready to start making the dumplings, and boiling the chicken for
the chicken & dumplings for tonight.

[CShaveRR]

I'll take a quiche from my shishter any day! [}:)]

We're getting mostly wind today, but the precipitation, what little there is of it, has turned white.

Had a lady order quish and shamomile tea one time. I don't know how the cook read my writing that day - I was holding back laughing so I wouldn't embarrass her!

The "snow" won't amount to much - and 50's by train watching time this weekend. S'no-snow...
