Good morning. Bright, sunny and 52 in Carolina. I haven't seen the forecast, but maybe it will warm up again. Paula, I hope your visit with the quack doesn't turn up anything bad and will remember you at 115. Thanks for breakfast, and everyone have a great day

Say hello to an old friend there in cincy Joe.
Going to be close to 80 here today...Open windows in the morning here have the dogs on alert.
Spent part of yesterday on the horn with a great bunch of people trying to keep the C&EI Historical Society functioning. I know of at least one side trip I'm taking the next trip east.
I'm getting mighty hungry. Pizza would be really good.
Well, the good news from Dr. is that my hip is looking pretty good. The bad news is: next Monday, 4/5/10, I go back to therapy, for my back. He says that is what is causing my hip to hurt and constantly ache. The sessions will be two or three days a week, for the next four weeks.
Bob, pizza does sound pretty good for tonight. And it looks like you all did a pretty good job of cleaning up the roast, taters , carrots for lunch today. So, on tonight's menu:
1. Cheese w/extra cheese
2. Hawaiian
3. Pepperoni/mushroom
5. Supreme
6. Italian
There's also tossed/garden salad to go with the pizza, and there's plenty of iced tea, fruit punch , sodas, whatever you'd like to have to drink (that's not alcoholic).
Everyone have a good evening, and I'll see you all later.
We are having pizza for dinner tonight?? Yum!! But save a few slices of it for me, CW, and I will have it for breakfast tomorrow morning. I just finished browning a pound of ground beef, and I added a can of Hunt's Manwhich sloppy joe sauce, and it is now simmering in my small crock pot. Anyone care to join me for sloppy joe burgers tonight?
I was reading my email at roughly 7:30 this morning when I could hear a strange sound coming from outside my windows. I stepped out on my front deck and discovered a duck in my neighbor's front yard! It was I think a female mallard and maybe she was looking for a place to build her nest and raise her brood of little ducklings. "Quack, Quack, Quack, Quack!"
I was thinking of having "breakfast" for supper, but pizza works. I think I saw Hawaiian on the list...
Windy and cool here today, with a gust of 18.7 recorded earlier. We're on the edge of the rain, but we don't expect much, if any.
If the weatherguessers are right (let's hope) we'll have a beautiful day for our Easter Bunny trains on Saturday. Easter is supposed to be nice, too, with just a chance of a sprinkle.
Back to my list of chores for the week...

.....A beautiful day here in Muncie land.....Spring is advancing. Tomorrow it's another yard mowing.
Finally, took the two 70# sand bags out of the back of my S-10 today....which have been in all Winter for a bit more traction. Should have removed them over a month ago....Just hauling them around for no reason.
Tomorow the m + S tires come off...{Could have had that done earlier too}, and we'll have 2 new one's {reg. summer tread}, installed and we'll have them rotated. New ones to the front....etc.
And let the nice weather continue....To be warmer tomorrow.

Joe; be sure to check out the granite walls in the terminal. Every thing is in the ( art deco) time. No matter how many times the terminal is remodeled , CUT still stays the same. We have been there a few times and theres always something to see. Down the tunnell to the track side is original, ( a trip thru time ) . ~~~ Cannonball

Good Wednesday morning, everyone. Fair skies with a temp in the mid to upper 40s this morning, here in Louisville this morning. Bob called last evening, and said that he and Barb would be heading out early this morning. Wishing them a safe trip, and looking forward to meeting them tomorrow.
Coffee, juices and other morning beverages fresh and ready to go, like hot water for our hot tea drinkers, Mudchicken's Gatorade (truck arrived last night). On the serving station this morning: pizza left from last night, cinnamon rolls, bagels and bear claws along with BLTs this morning.
Mookie, your coffee mug is ready, and I've got our rockers in place, on the deck.
Everyone have a good morning, keep safe, take care and see you all later.

CW, sorry to learn about your back problems. I thought I had a corner on that market. My news is better.
I had my first of three cortisone shots on Monday and the comfort level is much better. Also, surgery would not be in the immediate future as mine is diagnosed as stenosis, a compressing of the vertebra.
Nice weather in AZ today with possibility for rain showers tonight. Enjoy your day railroaders..

.....Another beautiful day here in our mid western Muncie......Plenty of sunshine and seems it will continue all week. Getting warmer each day.
Just returned from a bit of new tire work at our favorite tire dealer and the double track CSX east / west line is right across the street from it, and watching from the waiting room, a westbound mostly autocarier and tanks passed with 5 or 6 {CSX}, engines, but roughly in the middle of the power units was a smaller switcher size engine painted red....and labled "US Army".....Wonder what that was all about.....?

Jack, the doctor did say that surgery wouldn't help, so that stenosis may be what he's thinking is the problem. And he did say that I may have to have the cortisone shots, if the therapy doesn't help.
Mookie, isn't it nice to be able to have our rockers back outside, in the fresh air? The breeze is even warm!!
For our lunch/supper, here is the menu:
Beef noodles w/garden/tossed salad, or you can have Caesar salad
Dessert: Yellow cake w/chocolate icing, chocolate cake w/white icing, and any flavor ice cream you want
Everyone have a good afternoon, keep safe and take care of yourselves.
CW; are you going to have rocking chair races ?? It is getting close to racing season ~~ ya' know. The 1st. Saturday in May nearing the first turn.LOL Respectfully, Cannonball
