I guess I'm going to have to panhandle for food for the next couple days. I don't want to starve to death.

I know what we all can do!! Everybody meet at LM's and CW's house the next 3 nights around 7:00 and we all have one huge party.

See everyone on the other side of the tunnel. I know I'll be really, really, really, hungry.

Evening all....

Not too much happening here, just hot, got fourth and 11th places in poker this weekend, after coming back from parents on Wednesday.

Happy B-day Fuzzy, great site.

Catch y'all on the flip side, hopefully the rebuild of the site turns out great.

See y'all on Wednesday nite.

Well Good Morning All,

Took a circuitous route up US 36 to US 34, drove over Trail Ridge, and came back down through Granby, Fraser, Winter Park, etc. Lots of trains, but so much rain that yours truly didn't even try too hard to get any pictures.

While we really needed this, it would've been nice to see even a half hour over the weekend without rain! Oh well...

Happy belated birthday Mark. Hope you had a great one!

Quentin, the rails are the remnants of some mine tracks up above the town of Hahn's Peak, CO (up by Steamboat Springs). There were a lot of abandoned buildings, and mine shafts and things up there, but that was my favorite shot of that trip.

Well all, have a good couple days off, and we'll catch you in the new forum. Hope Bergie has some pro movers to take care of the layouts and stuff! Don't want them to get damaged!

Wow, nice remodel job!  It only took two days to fix the place up.  Not bad at all.  Guess I should stop lurking in the background and speak up.

Joe,CW should be in shortly to see about some "meals"??

Welcome back, everyone!!  Wow, two and a half days away, and it seems like it's been a month.  Big Smile [:D]  Let's see; Joe,
you mentioned burgers, correct?  Okay, I've got the freezer and fridge unlocked, so we'll get some burgers on the
stove top, in the cast iron skillet, and some fries in the deep fryer. 

Don't worry, I've taken a fresh, frozen chocolate cake out of the freezer, so it'l be ready for Mookie in the morning.

Although, we will be having a "celebration" tomorrow.  Everyone will find out more details on that in the morning.

Everyone have a great evening, and Sign - Welcome [#welcome] back!!

I don't even know what closet I was in--it was my big li'l sister who put me there.  I thought I had left the building.

Actually, it's a great place for lurkers--not quite as obvious as the couch.  And if you're on the couch, you run the risk of being served up with other potatoes.  I have to admit, though, that I'm looking forward to being peeled tonight!Mischief [:-,]Wink [;)]

Well take a look at this! Some nice new digs. Meanwhile, it looks like Bergie's movers forgot to bring my signature picture with, so I guess I had better go find another one to decorate the place a bit.

Hope you all had a nice break. I'll talk to you all later.

I managed to cross up my registration, but it's getting fixed.....

Looks like this will be OK. 

Had to trash the chocolate cake after three days in the cooler, but I'm sure there'll be one in its place soon enough.
