I haven't found getting around is too much of a problem. But then I just post and go and don't do anything too fancy.
Now back to more important matters: where is mah fork?

Gah! Must...turn....monitor.........brightness.................DOWN!
Going outside, above 50 degrees, start painting trim on the sunny side of da house.
One of my coworkers just planted grass seed at his new house. He and his wife went on vacation this week. I told him I'd keep an eye on the grass seed and keep it watered. So far, no problem. I watered it a little Saturday night, some on Sunday, and a lot Monday, and almost all day today. Tomorrow, I'll probably just water it about 40% of the time in the morning, tapering off towards the afternoon.
Well, we got our gully washed proper today! We have had at least 2 inches and maybe more. Driver & I were on the east and south end of town and we had to pull over twice due to heavy rain and no visibility. Of course, here at the house we had only had moderate rain. But it has rained pretty consistantly since we came home @ 5 pm - and I am almost positive I heard a boat whistle on our street. No flooding predicted.
I love rain!

CShaveRR I made the run from Elburn to Chicago in 24 seconds flat today, and have the video on Facebook to prove it!The G-forces were daunting, but nothing compared to the people who were launched onto the train by the wheelchair lift! Halfway through the run I saw NS's NS heritage unit (8104? Red and black), and at Proviso I saw the D&RGW heritage unit and a new GE test unit (2024? Blue all over). That radiator profile looks like it could scrape a tunnel or two!

The Rio Grande unit was on the MNPPR the other night and there was a NS heritage unit (I'm thinking the same one Carl saw) in QNPEL's consist the same night. We met both out in western Iowa.
Yesterday afternoon, I saw the UP TV commercial on the History Channel. I almost missed it, even though I had seen a preview of it on the employee website.
Speaking of being on TV, I had my first inward facing cameral equipped engine the other day. I imagine it was working, though the ATC/Cab signal wasn't.

Hey Carl!
Since I don't recall getting a "commemorative" car during my visit to your neck of the woods last year, I picked up an Evans 57' Plug Door car, CNW 600538, for my layout. Now I just have to figure out whether it's going to haul something in or out.
Sounds like we're going to have a wet weekend here. Not good for the leaves. I think they'll peak in Thendara this week, and the rain just drags them off the trees. And onto the rails. Hope the sanders are working well on the locomotive!
Should have just given his boys some paintball guns. They make house paint in ball form?
It's been fun. But it isn't much fun anymore. Signing off for now.

Murphy SidingIt only took 8-1/2 weeks.
Murphy Siding I finished painting my house last Saturday. It only took 8-1/2 weeks. If I were given a choice between painting or doing hard time, I'd choose breaking rocks at Sing-Sing. I hate painting, but the going price to paint a house like mine is around $4200, so I paid myself quite well to do it.
Painting is easy. The prep work sucks.
2 trains waiting to move on Ns.Didn't see the local.Need to do some chores.Cooler weather coming.

For those of you out on or interested in the Great Plains: My wife saw this documentary on PBS over the weekend (I haven't yet), and recommends it highly:

Great Plains: America's Lingering Wild
She said the camera work on the wildlife was really impressive, as was the explanation of the Ogallala Aquifer.
