Have a great Saturday.

Here are two Reading pictures for Reading Bob.

Morning. Tom doing nothing is good, I like doing nothing. Yesterday was spent putting together the clinic for the EXPO. Today will be spent enjoying the nice weather. Don't forget to change the clocks tonight, we'll lose one hour of political news coverage in the process. ;D

Good morning! We have had a week of spring here so I think I'm going to do steaks on the grill tonight to celebrate.


Has anyone seen an announcement about a forum get together at the EXPO?


I hope everyone has a great weekend.

I've been really busy, but sort of embracing it as the Expo will come as a welcome shock to the system. It has been announced by my bride that today is "Yard appreciation day" and tomorrow we are celebrating my lil Guy's 12th birthday by taking the Limo Bus down to Disney for dinner and Blue Man Group. My only MR goal for the weekend is to carve out an hour to just stare at the layout and think about the EXPO schedule, travel plans, shopping ideas, etc


Have a good one!


John

Morning all,

Thanks for the Reading pictures Tom!  A camelback and a caboose.  It doesn't get any better than that!   :D

I think I'm ready for the EXPO.  I have general idea what I want to pick up from the vendors but that may change based on anything new they might feature, specials, etc.

Morning,


Looks like a nice day here, I am liking the nice weather finally.


Here is a shot of an old chain ferry being launched, I think in NY somewhere.


Enjoy the day, and book your rooms for the Expo, room block closes tomorrow!


Hal

Happy Saturday every one.

Lots of things to do today......Taxes, time to get that started....Trains to fix, mostly just broken couplers so that should be easy.

We had about ten wild turkeys right near our deck yesterday, but fortunately our little Cockapoo Anna saved us by  barking and scaring them away before I got my cellphone out. Previously to my knowledge the only Wild Turkey near this house was the genuine, benchmark bourbon for uncompromising drinkers of Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey.


We have had many deer, fox, coyotes, bobcat, squirrels, raccoons, geese, ducks, etc. but no turkeys other than one of my brothers-in-law. I have seen more and more of them as I drive around the Twin Cities.


Has anyone noticed that photo resolution declines with their iPhone 5, after upgrading the IOS? The photos I get aren't as sharp even with outside lighting, tripod, etc..


I hope I can make an announcement regarding an Expo Forum meet-and-greet in a few days. It's complicated. I will send an email to Tom and John to consult with them.

Sorry it was late and I was tired and there may have been some other stuff there. I will try better next time.

No worries, most of us can't figure out what day it is. Thanks for getting us started.
