The radiator of the car looks, to my memory, rather like that of a Triumph car, most likely the Mayflower. They were unusual in being very angular and consequently costly in terms of machinery to build. There was a larger, more expensive version called The Renown.
Look them up on Google: very interesting cars, made in Coventry, England.

Good Wednesday morning, everyone. We have a current temp of 49 degrees here in Louisville this morning. Supposed to see a high in the low 70s today, with more clouds in the sky.
Coffee, juices and other assorted morning beverages are fresh and ready to go, and there's hot water for our hot tea drinkers.
On the serving station this morning: bacon, sausage, eggs, toast, bagels and bear claws.
Now, I'll head off to check my email, and then get ready to go to PT this morning. And for lunch today, there will be various meatsand fixings put out for you all to make your own subs/hoagies for lunch.
Everyone have a good day and take care.

Good afternoon everybody. 73 and overcast in Carolina, and the boffins say we may get some rain later tonight. Again with the headache. I am about ready to blame the pollen, which means we sure do need the rain. We shall see if that helps. Everyone take care

Bob, you've got me stumped!
Produce went well this morning. Truck was semi early again this week. It showed up about 6, 7 minutes before 9. They brought us cabbage, eggs, potatoes and romaine lettuce. Since we have enough lettuce and eggs on hand, I only brought home a bag of potatoes and a head of cabbage. Attendance was down today, as we only had 49 people.
Our Tuesday Mexican Fiesta menu is now on the serving station:
Tacos, burritos, chimichangas, fajitas, Chipotle chicken wraps, smoked cheddar bacon burgers, along with Spanish rice and lettuce w/chopped tomatoes. And we have the tortilla chips with the regular dips: picante sauce, salsa and con queso.
Now, I'm off to do laundry, and get my back exercises in for today. Will try to make it back in later on this afternoon, or early evening.
....I'm a car guy, but......it looks a bit suspicious. If it's real, it sure does seem a bit crude....almost like a company trying to copy a US model......meaning possible Russian. Anyway, that's my wild guess.

Morning all!
We got a little free time this morning, so I thought I would drop in and say hi, and get some breakfast.
The warm weather has seemed to go away for a while here. It’s only 52* right now. I hope it warms up soon!
See you all later!

Good Tuesday morning, everyone. Sounds like some of you had very a very interesting day yesterday.
Coffee, juices and other morning beverages are fresh and ready to go. Bagels, bear claws, turkey bacon, pork sausage, scrambled eggs and toast are prepared and on the serving station.
Guess I'll see you all sometime after I get back from Tuesday Produce. I really, really need to get my back exercises in today. I was very naughty, and did not do any of them Sunday or Monday. ( Bad Paula, Bad Paula) Everyone have a good morning, and take care.

Whew.....
After dropping truck off at shop for service, went to parents house to do some fire tending. Dad and sisters' boyfriend hacked up and burned about four or five trees yesterday, and fire was still going this afternoon. Raked the limbs that didn't burn into fire, and raked up the coals a bit to get everything to burn, though at rate it's going, it will be burning until Wednesday (note to self: Never give a man who works for Asplundh a chainsaw and tell him to go to town on a tree clearing job).
Got a call from the shop a while ago, looks like I might be home tomorrow as well, shop is swamped, and it might be tomorrow afternoon before they finish. Oh well, will worry about it later, time for some dinner...
See everyone later....

Four loads of brush to the transfer site (they'll chip it up for mulch), and a trip to town for 7 arbor vitae to go where the hedge was along the fence. All i have to do is take up a couple of stumps before i can plant the trees... Enough yard work for today, though.
Time to get cleaned up and head back to town for the PBS auction again.
yardwork is done.Waiting to see what Matt has for homework when he gets off the bus.Mom's checkup went fine.Cw thanks for supper.Time to get things around for work tonight.
Modelcar Willy2How about college? Not all of us can frolic in the warm sunshine to our heart's content. .....No, nor can many other people. But as you said, you will be able to in 2 weeks.

The good thing about college is that the days are not as long as in high school. If your schedule is well-balanced, there are only two or three classes per day, as opposed to seven or eight in high school. Plus, I've got a nice campus to explore when I'm not in class. The situation could certainly be worse, I'll admit that much.

Good morning all from AZ. Overcast here and high about 60 predicted. You all have a great day.
Modelcar Members really seem to be appearance limited to this site lately....Nice weather outside....?
How about college? Not all of us can frolic in the warm sunshine to our heart's content. Not when there are series & sequences to analyze and great works of world literature to read. Just two more weeks until freedom!
Well, got several errands to run this afternoon, so decided to go ahead and post the meals menu for this afternoon and evening.
There's plenty of meat loaf, etc., left from our Sunday Dinner, and everything that needs to warmed is taken care of, and is now on the serving station. Salad's in the cooler.
After I posted this morning, the "people in the know" updated the predicted high to today. Now, it's supposed to be 65 degrees, if not a degree or two warmer. With plenty of nice sunshine, maybe we'll see the temp pushing 70.
Everyone have a great afternoon, and see you all later. OH, and Tom, glad to hear you're feeling better. You all take care, and see you all later.

I will respond to that with a definitive "YES".
.....And another really nice Spring day. Earlier, it was in the low 40's. Should warm up considerably this afternoon.
Grass mowing again about tomorrow.....That will be the 7th so far.....it is so thick and really nice. Oh the pretty Springtime....

Hello Americans, it's Monday. A half hour before sunrise, it's 44 and clear in Carolina. Not sure of the high today, but it is likely to be a really nice day.
I feel good enough, for a change, to make a sortie to the grocery store later. I will try to do some other errands at the time and kill two stones with one bird.
Since I'm not able to any yardwork, we are waiting for the grass cutting guy to make an appearance. We had a miscommunication and each of us was waiting for the other to call. The grass is really growing fast. Last night, we had a possum show up and he could almost have hidden in the stuff. The girls put him up a tree and shouted insults at him for a while!
Thanks for breakfast, Paula. Have a great day
Good Monday morning, everyone; and, Welcome back Bob! Hope you all had a great time on your vacation. I still have a touch of the sinus headache. Not too bad, yet, this morning, so I'm at least coping. Still sneezing, too, but the cough has let up quite a bit.
Coffee, juices and other morning beverages are fresh and ready to go, and there's plenty of hot water for our hot tea drinkers. On the serving station this morning: all the regular weekday breakfast menu items, including bagels and bear claws.
It looks like it's going to be a pretty day, after the sun comes up, and we'll probably top out today with a high around 63 degrees.
Everyone have a good morning, and take care.
Next time we visit Louisville, we're going to the Slugger factory. And time permitting, the Jim Beam distillery. I hear it is fascinating. CW. I hope you can fight off the aches & pains.
Looooong drive yesterday. About two and a half hours each way, on a curvy state road. On the good side, the scenery (western Adirondacks) was spectacular, when the sun wasn't in my eyes. Of course that wasn't a problem on the way home, as it rained the whole way (at least the snow that fell while I was in Saranac Lake didn't stick.
I'm pretty sure I passed all the rules tests, so I'm good for another year on the railroad.
Headed for the PBS station tonight for the annual merchandise auction. Always a good time, and way too much food...
Mud and Mook: Haven't bought it yet, yust want to sign a letter of intent so I can still get the homebuyers credit, but yes, will have a place to store my toys, and a full basement for a layout.....
Home now, more comfortable than a sleeper, and only half hour from the customer for tomorrow. New locomotives look very nice, as do the piggyback flats. Can now do a Wisconsin Central intermodal train, now need a bunch of trailers to put on the flats.....
May be in for dinner, but sister is making meatloaf for dinner, so will be a hard choice.....
