Well, I'm finally back from Produce! The truck was over an hour late; started out with 58 people, ended up with 55, after others got tired and/or had to leave before truck showed up. Got chocolate milk, lettuce, parsley, carrots, cauliflower, apples and potatoes.
Think I'll bake an apple pie or apple crisp for dessert tonight. On the warmer bar, you will find: roast, taters, carrots, garden (tossed) salad, corn, cornbread, and rolls. For dessert, there is: chocolate cake, yellow cake w/caramel icing, and banana pudding.
Everyone have a great afternoon, and take care. Joe, we're supposed to get rain sometime later on this afternoon.

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").
Thanks for all the compliments on the pix gang, and I do miss being in here but these days I 've got priorities and a lot of great things going on in my life both at work and personally. It does cut way down on my forum time but it's ALL GOOD !!!
Anybody know where Chris is these days? I think these are the first pictures I have posted that were taken with his old camera (I bought his old Canon body back in December) and he might like to see them.
Anyway I'm off to bed, I just got home from doing a late night ampifier changeout.
Everyone have a great and blessed day.
And Mookie, seeing BC got me thinking, Is it too early to start planning another Lincoln gathering for this Fall ???

Well, looks like no one came in last night for supper. I had to throw out everything I had fixed for last night's supper, and cleaned up the warmer bar, and washed all the dishes.
Coffee is made, fresh juice is made, and we have hot tea and cider available this morning.
On the warmer bar, you will find: fresh baked muffins: blueberry, cherry, strawberry, oatmeal, and corn muffins. There's also bear claws and bagels (beagels for Mookie). Also, you will find: turkey bacon, oatmeal, toast, and sausage & biscuits.
I'll be back when I finish with Tuesday Produce.
Joe, before we have any of the peanut butter pie, how about some meat loaf, mashed taters & gravy and mac and cheese? There's also steak strips with sauteed mushrooms & onion, and there's also some shelly beans w/potatoes & onion cooked in with the beans.
It's good to know that you had a good visit with Grandma & Grandpa Kohnen, along with seeing some trains! That's always a very good thing!!
Duff, I'm glad to hear that Project X made it!! I'm very happy to hear that you like it so much. That was my intention, after all!! If you ever want a larger version, even in a different color, just let me know.
Evening
had a good visit with G +G kohnen back in my old hometown. RJ corman even made its presence felt with a train rolling through Celina.I make this a peanut butter pie dessert night because if we didnt order the dessert we would have missed the train.

Didn't want to get on today since I had stuff to do around the house. Didn't get it done anyhow...
Hearing some bumps and rumbles - first T-Storms of the season. A couple of cells passed to the north (they stayed Canadian) earlier, but there's a small line working its way off the lake now, so we might get a little action. Nothing serious, though.
As long as the pup doesn't get too worried - she doesn't care for that stuff.
Meeting tonight, so better snag some early chow.
Back to projects, too.

Great pictures, Chad!
Hmm... I wonder where Datafever has been over the last few days?
Today is a warm and muggy day. They've got AC at school, but they must not wish to run it yet since it is hotter than blazes in this place.
My bedroom is finally getting painted - 3 months after we moved. I've had to put up with girly looking yellow for the past three months! This a much nicer green that goes with my tropical themed bedding.
The school newspaper came out today and the article on my website was in it. Naturally, there had to be a problem. They have this whole lovely article on the website, but do they give the web address anywhere? No. So in other words, despite the article, my site won't see any increase in visitors since the web address was left out. Sometimes I wonder...
Anyway, I hope everyone has a good week. We have a late start tomorrow and Friday off, so that should make sure that this week isn't too bad.

I just now got project X in the mail, and I fell in love with it at first sight., Thank you so much Paula! I am definitely sure that she will appreciate it years from now. I will be sending you a thank you card in the mail at least.
Meatloaf, and mac and cheese is what we are having for dinner, I can share if anyone wants any
Don't be a stranger Chad! Those pictures are awesome!
not too much happening here, Sadie of course is getting bigger, and everyone here is doing alright
Saturday we went to a friends place to celebrate her four year old's birthday. It was alright. Kind of boring, but any trip there is boring, they like to talk about computers a lot, and that's not really my forte. If it's not about computers it's about Star Wars, and I am not much of a sci-fi fan.
a bowl of cereal for me, with orange juice. I am sure that would hit the spot
CW I am keeping an eye on the mailbox for Project X. Thank you so much for that! I will definitely let you know if it has arrived
For today's lunch menu, I've warmed up leftovers from the cookout yesterday. We've got some steaks, burgers, brats, baked beans, and I've got some more pork chops just about ready to take off the grill. Sides are: garden salad, cole slaw & potato salad. And potato chips, if anyone wants them. So, grab a plate, and utensils, and head on out to the patio.
Hmmm, Stay away for a couple of days and really do miss a lot of the goings on!!
Emma, Congrats on your track & Field things!!! I never went out for Track, but used
to be able to run fast!!! (when I had too, and that was Years Ago!!)
Dan, Congratulations--When the time comes, hope all goes as well as you've planned!
Jay, Congrats on the "Grandpa Role", I'm sure you're already trying to figure out
some way to use that as a Tax Deduction
Chad, WELCOME BACK!!!! Try not to stay away as long next time!!
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!!
Congrats Jay!

Jay, I'm jealous: we would love to meet Mark (and Tina)! But very glad to you got to see him. Also, CONGRATULATIONS on new baby in family! Is Grandpa Jay going to spoil him rotten, and teach him about trains and railfanning?!?!
I'll take half a beagle and some milk.
I slept with my window open last night and was able to hear the rumble of the trains. I don't hear any horns, though, because the sound is blocked from the north and the track is grade separated for quite a ways to the south.
.....Interesting photos from a unique railroad spot.

He left behind an almost 80 degree day on Sunday and same for today. What happened to spring? Could have used some air overnite, but going to cool off by end of week.
