.....Another yard mowing done...And what a beautiful day to do it. But, it's getting hot out there. Clear sky and bright sunshine.
This area is very capable of having such nice weather in October, and so far, this one is doing very well.
Grass is growing like Springtime...
Update:
Hot, Hot, Hot.....Now 4:55 and it's 80 degrees...Same as down at C Ws' area. And the sun is really bearing down....Have been over at our neighbors helping trimming an out of control shrub, and the sun heat has me about melted down. Should not have attempted that in the afternoon...{west side of house}, but we have it looking better.

80 degrees here in Louiville at 4;35 p.m. Very warm out, too, as there is hardly any breeze.

5. Goetta
6. Ham & green pepper

Wellll! The USC Thunderchickens romped and stomped today over another victim. The victim will remain unnamed in order to protect the innocent and certain folks on this forum.... Maybe we finally found our QB to replace the unlamented Steve Garcia.
Take care and have a great weekend

Deshler Ohio-crossroads of the B&O Matt eats your fries.YUM! Clinton st viaduct undefeated against too tall trucks!!!(voted to be called the "Clinton St. can opener").
Good Sunday morning everyone. Joe, glad to hear that you and Stacey had a great time last night on your anniversary! And Joe, thank you for taking care of breakfast this morning. Woke up at 4:50, and then proceeded to lie back down: next thing I knew, it was almost 6:30.
Wonder how our favorite chicken is doing this morning: understand from the weather report, that Denver and surrounding area got hit with snow overnight. Bet he's not too happy this morning.
Everyone have a good morning, take care going to Church, work, railfanning, or whatever else you have to do this morning.
Murray - sounds like Mother Nature is having trouble finding a happy medium there.
I was in SA for a conference some years ago. On our "free night" we wandered afield (to an outlet mall north of town). Almost didn't make it back to the hotel due to heavy rains and some accompanying flooding.
As they say - when it rains, it pours...

Larry we ended up with up to 5 inches of rain in the vicinity....and an F0-F1 tornado about 6 miles from my house. Damaged a post Office and delivery trucks....and tore roofs off of a nearby subdivision...

Morning all! in the upper 60's this morning. Looks like we'le be down in the low 60's for a high starting on thursday. I love cold weather so much! Have a high in the 80's today.
Trees are turning very nicely. Took a trip down to Turkey Run SP yesterday and caught some beautiful shots of the fall colors.
Coffe is good.
Be safe and have a good day!

afternoon
another nice day here.have chores to do and need to check matts homework when he gets home.found my container for supper tonight.
Since I didn't make it in this morning: Good Monday afternoon everyone. Don't think I've been missed today! Been busy as "Monday Washer Woman".
Before I forget, in case he drops in: Happy Birthday, Willy!!!! Hope you're having a terrific day, and are able to get out and enjoy your birthday, hopefully, by doing some train watching!
The menu for the rest of the day is compliments of Mutt: spaghetti casserole w/salad, your choice of garlic Texas toast, plain bread sticks, or cheese bread sticks.
Everyone enjoy your afternoon, take care and see you all later.
Shucks Tom, you might as well added "Humiliated" to that. I'm very glad USC found their QB, Ky's still looking for their team.
Being Crazy,keeps you from going "INSANE" !! "The light at the end of the tunnel,has been turned off due to budget cuts" NOT AFRAID A Vet., and PROUD OF IT!!
CW - I sent Willy a note, so he might check in.
Rendevouz with garbage man @ dark-30 was in the rain this morning. Of course, right after that it quit raining.
We won our fb game, but I can't discuss it, since I might jinx them. But we enjoyed the Buckeyes visiting our home.
Must go lay in the south window and absorb that wonderful summer/fall feel. I will take 70-78 any day!

A beautiful day on the railroad. Fantastic temperatures, sunny blue skies, even some color left in the trees (peak was a week or two ago).
Good thing it was warm - I didn't have the HEP generator equipped car in the consist as it had been "borrowed" for another train. Nobody complained.
As I was getting ready for our first trip, I noticed a familiar face in the crowd - a cousin, along with her husband and granddaughter. Had a nice chat with them. Always nice to get a surprise.
Ended the day with a bunch of switching to put the HEP coach back in the consist and get rid of one of the coaches.
Almost bedtime, and it's a busy week yet to come!
....And another picture perfect day here in Muncie. Just perfect.
Jean and I did some outside cleaning and renewing around the house today....Front post light cleaned and painted, and more outside windows cleaned, and even lunch, relaxing out in front of house....including Ella and her food dish....{Pup}.
Another post light {out back}, might get the same treatment tomorrow as well as another at the garage service door. Two along side of the garage door might get it too, we'll see....
Good Tuesday morning everyone. 57 degrees and cloudy this morning, here in Louisville. Supposed to get up to 75 today. Think yesterday, we got up to 80, 82 degrees.
Mookie, just to be on the safe side, with Willy, I went on Facebook, and wrote a birthday greeting on his wall.
Coffee, juices, and other morning beverages are fresh and ready to go. Breakfast is also ready and on the warmer/serving station. Larry, Tom, et al, have hot water for your morning hot tea. Mudchicken, do you need some hot cider this morning?
3 weeks and 1 day until I go for my glaucoma test.
Everyone have a very good morning, take care, and I'll see you all after I get through with Tuesday Produce.
Morning all, just for the record, its nice to have all your school work done in class. You get to get on the forum!
A nice cool morning this morning. I think we are in the upper 50's. Shooting for a high in the 80's today.
Thanks for the coffe CW! Have a good day all!
-Justin
CW : This morning we need blue gatorjuice, a syringe with WD-40 and a brainectomy on the side.
Nigel (scottish terrier) has decided that creaking joints on the staircase are to be watched and nipped at when they complain too loudly.
Mudchicken, here's the WD-40 for you!! Hope it helps.
Produce went well this morning. They brought: sweet potatoes, cabbage, bags of carrot sticks, strawberry yogurt, gallon jugs of chocolate milk, 1/2 pints of regular milk. We had 69 people show up this morning, and had nothing left by 9:30. Bread/pastry truck had the regular assortment of breads, and pastries were chocolate brownies (?) and an assortment of doughnuts.
For the rest of the day, we have:
1. Leftover spaghetti casserole, fresh Texas toast and Italian bread sticks and Italian garden salad.
2. "Small" assortment of our Tuesday Mexican Fiesta, with tacos, burritos, Spanish rice, chimichangas and fajitas.
Hope you all enjoy your afternoon. Take care, and I'll try to make it back in later.

Good Wednesday morning everyone. 63 degrees here in Louisville this morning. Should get up into the mid 70s today.

Our morning is almost the same as it's been for some time now, but with high thin clouds, and some sunshine getting thru, and it will be warm today.
Must get some more outside cleaning and painting...{light fixtures}, and another yard mowing accomplished before possible rain the next two days.
This has been an extraordinary string of very nice weather.
power went out for 20 minutes today.not sure why.paper talked about new buisness coming and needing rail service(via csx).also talked about csx offering up to 200 K(thousand) per crossing to close them through town.politics gotta love it.cw thanks for supper.Time to get ready for work.
Afternoon all. Guess our high today got up to about 73, 74 degrees. Skies were mostly cloudy all day, until about 3:45 or so, when the sun decided to pop out and pay us a visit.
Menu tonight: Chinese:
Fried rice: beef, chicken, pork, shrimp or special with all of the aforementioned kinds; Chop Suey, Moo Goo Gai Pan, Kung Po Chicken, Beef w/broccoli, Pepper Steak, Seafood combo, and Beef Chow Mein, along with Wonton Soup, Egg Drop Soup, and Chicken & Rice Soup.
Hope everyone has had a good day, and will have a very good evening. Take care, and see you all tomorrow.

Chinese!! AWRIGHT!! Ding Hao!!
Things seem to rattle on here with no apparent change in the offing. When we both had our surgeries this past spring. we had to delay filing our taxes. After much wailing and gnashing of teeth, we finally got it done and actually have some refund coming in. That is wonderful news
Not a whole lot else to report. Everyone take care
Good Thursday morning everyone. Cloudy and 59 degrees here in Louisville, going for a high in the mid 60s. Rain should be in here sometime this morning. They say it could be heavy at times.
Coffee, juices and other morning beverages are fresh and ready to go. Breakfast is on the warmer/serving station.
Tom, glad to see that you made it in last evening, for the Chinese food.
Everyone take care, have a good morning, and see you all later on.
Rain overnight (a quarter inch), and scattered green on the radar this AM.
At least I got the driveway coated and it dried, and I got the front lawn mowed. The back yard will be a jungle by the time I get to it one last time.
Busy weekend coming up. Fire prevention at the elementary school Friday morning, then off to the railroad in the afternoon to set up for the weekend's "Pumpkin Trains" and a couple of special visitors.
Today will be "what else do I need to get ready for this weekend" day. Only one project left that I can think of...
As much as I enjoy the railroad, it's going to be nice having a little hiatus until the Polar Express trains start.
Bingo...........Can't report sunshine today. Weather people did say we had a good chance to see rain today, and it's here. We really do need it. It's been sunshine and dry weather for sometime now.
Glad I got outside jobs finished and mowing again yesterday. This rain probably will bring leaves down. Hope the wind does not blow too many this way. I have no trees that produce leaves...by plan.
Won't get as warm today. Day started out about 56 plus degrees. Perhaps in the 60's for today's high.
I see Larry indicates he is about to do his last mowing....Boy, not around here....We generally mow up into November. Along with mulching leaves with it...
no rain here yet in nw ohio.Matt had a 3 hr delay due to fog this morning.some schools closed for the day.California pen pal is safely in ottawa ohio.We will be seeing him tomorrow after matt gets on the bus.Cw thanks for supper for tonight.Need to get some chores done.
