Aimee thinks I am being gross when I eat ‘maters like that...all the better, of course, because that leaves it all for me!
And avocado halves, with salt, pepper, and a spoon...now that's good eating....

....Walt: Believe that's one airplane I've never seen in the reality. There used to be a couple that flew over in northern Ohio...Believe it was near Sandusky, Oh....Don't know if they're still there or not.
I may have seen one flying {about 17 or so years ago}, up in Auburn, In....It was during the Labor Day mammoth automobile auction and parades and celebrations that is an annual affair. I'm told there is another plane with the similar configurations...{3 engines}, So maybe I did, but really don't know....
I've flown in plenty of DC-3's, as the Lake Cental commuter used to use them here {Muncie}, to make the flight from Muncie to O'Hara and also to Detroit. That was an experience.

I know, supper's a tad bit late tonight. On the warmer bar: pork chop abracadbra, open-faced roast beef sandwiches w/mashed taters and gravy, garden salad, green beans, corn, sliced tomatoes and cottage cheese (for those who like it).
Joe and Lance, there are containers for you both in the fridge, w/your names on them, for work tonight.
Sorry about supper being so late tonight; everyone have a good evening.

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").

Yes, as the Mutt said, I've been home for a few minutes. Of course, don't know anything about the blood work, but x-ray tech did tell my my chest x-rays looked good, so I'm glad about that. Did find out that when I go in on Monday Sept. 17th, I will come home around noon on Thursday.
I've heated up leftovers for lunch, from all the cooking I did in here yesterday. You have your choices of chicken & dumplings, roast, taters, carrots, etc., meat loaf, and whatever else it was I fixed yesterday.
Do any of you have any requests for supper tonight?!?! If so, I will try my best to comply with any and all requests.
You all have a great afternoon, and I'll talk with you later!!
....No J....Email, not snail mail was the intended subject. We're fine...No problem.
Since your answer came right back to me it's obviously it sure was going out from here ok....At least it told me the computer was tossing out "mail" to the air waves.
Dan, We had a neighbor of yours here in Louisville over the weekend. One of the few remaining (that flys) FORD Tri-Motor airplanes was in town, and gave rides to anyone who could ante up $ 50.00 per. (sponsered by the EAA of Oshkosh, Wi., first stop on their newest tour)
(I'll take my chances with Rotor Blades on top, not propellers in front; Thank You!!)
The cook just walked in the door so I guess I'll check with her to see if she's got anything going for lunch.
Q - since I handle mailing addresses here at work - I instantly thought of postal mail, not e-mail! My apologies.....and boy was I confused!
...Thank you J.....seems it's working just fine, which I thought it was but wanted to find out. Guess it could be an email problem, but she has had some problems in receiving email lately and simply I wanted to make sure this computer was pushing it out over the air waves....
And we thank you for the help....Have a good {sunny}, Monday work day...
Q - they don't deliver on Sunday?
J
....Good morning J:
Since you are one of the early birds this morning, I'm wondering if you can give me a quick check on a piece of return mail....Sis in law, in Pennsylvania says she received no mail from me yesterday and I sent two pieces. Thanks.
(creak...) Anyone home?
School starts today, so hiding out in here until all students find their way to class.
SV - like your dollies. They are beautiful. Even with the chocolate.
I am going to go to a quiet corner and dunk my morning beagle. Which reminds me - went to B & N for our Sat late morning coffee. They couldn't make anything through the coffee steamer, (broken) so we had to settle for regular coffee (my usual choice anyway, but Driver likes the Lattes.)
That will put a lot of fur on your head! I like it, but it really is pretty strong.
High 90's today - must rest, must really rest hard....
Good Monday morning folks! It's a nice, cool morning here, going for a high of 90, I believe is what I heard on the morning weather report.
Coffee, juices, tea and lemonade are freshly made. Breakfast this morning: bacon, sausge, hash browns, scrambled eggs, homemade biscuits and sausage gravy.
One of you will have to take care of lunch today for me: I will be at the hospital, having my pre-op bloodwork and other tests for my knee surgery next month. Have NO idea what time I'll be home. But I know I'm leaving the Diner in good hands, with all the good helpers I have here. You all have a great day, take care, and I'll see you all later this afternoon.

Gotta change the sludge oil in fiancee's car ("I thought 3000 was only a guideline!" ) ...
A friend of mine's sister-in-law had a car that didn't get an oil change for it's first 24,000 or so. She didn't know....
...
When I was married, my wife drove the car and I rode a Moped (all seasons, all weather... rain, heat, snow...) and since I wasn't driving the car, I forgot about oil changes, etc. She drove it for 7 years. Then we got a better car (and the Moped bit the dust) and I got the old car. I changed the oil twice myself and the filter once (hard to reach and I just didn't feel like fighting it).
Then she divorced me and I got that car (she got the nice one). I could not afford to take it anyplace and the appartment complex didn't allow open hoods (!!!) so I drove it another 7 years without changing the oil. I got rid of the car when the CV joint began to click loudly in left turns and I was "warned!" that meant they were about to fly apart and cause a fatal wreck. I was told the repair was about $2,500. So I traded it in for a newer used car.
The car I traded it in for didn't click when I test drove it, but did so on the way home after I bought it. I drove it for several years and complained to my son about what I assummed would be the same cost to repair... he says; "I can do that for just a couple of hundred!" I drove that one another 4 or 5 years and never changed the oil in it either. Got rid of it due to the body rusting away.
Car I have now, I changed the oil in it every 3,000 miles after I got it and after about 6 months I noted the temperature gauge wandering all over the place in the winter. I checked the oil the next day and it was all white and frothy. Leak in the head gasket between the oil and water passages. Replaced the engine with one from a wreck (had only 400 miles on it!) I have had the oil and filter changed twice since (week after the engine was installed per the recommendation of the shop that installed it and once before a long trip about a year later). The "new" engine now has about 60,000 miles on it.

I bought some Hershey's "Kisses" for the chocoholics around here, but when I turned my back to get a pretty serving bowl for them, the dollies got to them...
This is Shelby after the fact:
This is Diana in the same state:
Sorry, they got the whole bag before I got back.
I just can't turn my back on any of 'em. After I got them cleaned up, I boiled the washrag to make some cocoa for me to drink with the last of the Kibbles and Bits.

I'll take that for dinner!
'Mutt's estimate of one good picture in a dozen is optimistic. One in a "roll" (24 or 36, your choice) is really more like it. The nice part about digitals is that you can shoot dozens and dozens, and if they're bad enough, delete them. Just remember, that lousy shot of a beat up old (name a railroad here) engine might be worth its weight in gold someday...
Was perusing a local news website today that had a link to a story about the tornados in Michigan over the weekend. I have friends living in Fenton, which was about the hardest hit by the biggest of the twisters. Heard from one of them today - she wasn't far from the action but suffered no damage or injury. Fenton is about 20 miles from where I used to live - I took my driver's road test there lo, those many years ago....

....Cannonball: Your conversations come thru to the point of doing hard work, but you seen to like your over the road trucking type of life.
Seem to enjoy where ever it happens to be....by making the best of it.
You really seem to get all over the country and must have seen a lot, and all kinds of situations.
Good luck, and keep on trucking as that seems to be your thing to be doing......
Y6bs evergreen in my mind
I've got everything replenished on the warmer bar (since it looks like no one was here, until Joe came in). And Joe, there are containers ready in the fridge, with a variety of the meats and poultry, and the side dishes, for you and Lance for work tonight.
For everyone else, get off the tracks, and come fill up your plates!! Been a beautiful day around here, and very pleasant and comfortable outside. If you want, take your plates out to the patio, or up on the deck!!
hmm decisions decisions.how about a little of all 4 for supper tonight.yes things got real interesting today with the q 500 losing an engine.he did have some windmill tops on his train.
Good Sunday morning (uh, afternoon), everyone! Joe, thanks for breakfast this morning!! And, even though I'm just getting in the Diner, I've been very busy fixing SUNDAY DINNER for you all. On the menu:
1. Chicken and dumplings
3. Roast beef, potatoes and carrots w/shelly beans, broccoli and cheese sauce, cauliflower, sliced tomatoes, cole slaw, and corn
4. Fried chicken w/mashed taters and gravy, corn on the cob, shelly beans, broccoli and cheese sauce, and sliced tomatoes.
OH!!: to the Diner, SV. And when you next visit, bring extra chocolate, not only for the kitty, but for the cook, also!! I'm another choclaholic around here.
Hope everyone has a terrific afternoon, and hope you all see plenty of train action. Hmmm, think I hear a train coming by the DD/CS!! Gotta go watch!!
Dan, better take Joe's offer on the "baling wagon".
SV Welcome, just make sure and leave some really good Kibbles for me.
Joe, Thanks for taking care of things this morning; after the thunderstorm yesterday
afternoon and our temps cooled down a lot, we apparently decided to sleep in this morning,
(went from 90 something to 70 something this morning, we did not hit the predicted
high of 100 something yesterday.)
and I've been on the computer doing other things, so CW hasn't had a chance to even
say Hi.(she will be in after a few.)
Duff, your pictures looked very good, take Larry's and others advice. For all the "good"
pictures I've ever taken, I have at least a dozen that weren't. As far as Larry's advice goes,
He said to take lots of pictures; the only thing I could add to that it to; take Lots and Lots
of pictures!!
Here's one of my decent shots (not that good)
And here is a poor one. (you should see how many I deleted to get this one, and it ain't good)
Morning all! Donut and OJ for me.
Joe thanks for the email: I see what your signature means!
SV this kitty is nice! Plus low eDander count 99% of the time!
Gotta change the sludge oil in fiancee's car ("I thought 3000 was only a guideline!" ) and mow the wheat field lawn today. Back for somethin' good later!
Dan
Awww Wily I am glad you are back. I was starting to miss your Superchief.
Tree I printed out you post so I can use it later to shoot trains. (the taking pictures advice one)
Tea, and a bagel with cream cheese. And some fruit for me. I have lost my taste for coffee....and I thought that day would never come
good morning
hope the emails got to where they are going.the viaduct has claimed another truck on friday.we have juice coffee and lemonade for today.we also have eggs bacon and waffles on the warmer bar.semper the kitty comes in during the week.

Sorry there was only half a can for Angus, I had to have some supper first.
As for the kitty... I'll start sneezin' the moment it steps on my property and by the time it gets close enough to leave its callin' card I'll have been so itchy as to have started takin' pot shots at it to get it to retreat.
Besides, the chocolate is always confiscated by the Porcelain Managerie as soon as I get it home, (dem Dolls is a eatin' me outta house and home, and they keep makin' faces at me when I ain't lookin', too).
