Thanks Rick for getting us going. Good morning from surprisingly dry So. Wisconsin after the promised heavy rains after midnight. Between the missed high temperatures and missed rain predictions I am not sure where to turn to for weather. Basically I gave up on TV weather years ago and went with the computer but even those are so far off lately it is crazy. Rant over!
It is Farmer Market morning and the grandkids will be watched later this afternoon. Enjoy your day.
Tom

Morning everyone
Rick thanks for the coffee.
Weather in South Jersey sunny/72. Later 78!
A beautiful Fall day.
No beach today errands to run.
A little work on Fordson last night.
I really had a hard time with the rear axles I guess my eyes are just not willing to work in O-Scale anymore.
Might be time for a rest away from the bench.
Or a bigger scale...
Everyone have a great day!!  |

Good morning folks,
Rick, thanks for coffee.
Sounds like the weather is all over the place. It is still hot with 98F forecast! Ugh again.
Have fun,
Mike |

Now that's weird I do use one!!! I guess my eyes are just tired Rick.
So today I pulled out the axle and both hubs came with it!!
Or using an optivisor.

Jerry, I've had to use an opitivisor for years.
But I haven't done any modeling in a while, so I'm not sure if the optivisor still works.
I stocked the fridge with some stouts and other beers and set the Eagle Rare on the counter. |

Most likely that's what I need a good beer and a couple of shots of Eagle rare.
Its fun getting old...older!
Hope to see you in the next couple of weeks I miss the Amendment 21!! |

Good morning everyone.
Coffee, hot water for tea and Diet Dr Pepper are ready to go.
Summer is still hanging tough here in Joisey with lots of sun and highs in the mid 80's.
Look at Rich breaking out the unicorn.
The usual grocery shopping and meal prep this morning.
Probably a bike ride afterward.
Will try to relax after with a cigar.
Have a great day everyone. |

Good morning folks,
Rick, thanks for coffee.
Last night we assembled 453 dental kits for first graders in town. Our lodge does this every fall. The objective is to teach first graders good dental hygiene. We had pizza and fun, too.
Hotter: 98F forecast for today. This is getting ridiculous.
Have fun,
Mike |

Good morning from Fall is definitely here at 48f degrees So. Wisconsin. Almost joined last night when I saw the beer and Eagle Rare. Instead I was in the trainroom trying to figure out why I tore down part of my Paper Mill. Thanks Rick for getting us going to this morning.
Mike don’t take this wrong as I truly believe you and your Lodge are doing a great thing. It is too bad though you have to do this as somewhere along the line the parents are letting the schools and outsiders raise their kids. Still a great move by your group!
Enjoy your day
Tom

Morning everyone
Rick thanks for the coffee.
Rich what are doing drinking at 6:04am???
A nice Fall day here in South Jersey. Sunny/74!
No beach today!
As far as the Forson goes I soaked it in Acetone over night so I could take it all a part and started over again and again!!
Epoxy is very hard to get apart!!
Everyone have a great day!! |

Good morning folks,
Well things are getting real, very fast. We got an accepted offer on our house (only 10 days after listing), pending inspection. Now we have to find a place to suit that we can move into by end November !!! We were all over the map with thoughts of getting our forever house on Vancouver Island (beautiful there) but with still needing to work and not having jobs over there we decided to grow my wife's practice here and continue on for the time being in a smaller, hopefully beautiful place, until M-I-L passes. In all likelihood, the RR will be retired before being completed and I can only hope to be able to build the odd structure or car in the meantime (sigh).
Anyway, hope all is well with you guys. Weather has been ****e for a few weeks already. Might get some sun over the weekend.
Cheers,
Dave |
