Title: Sunday, Jul 11
Post by: vinceg on July 11, 2021, 07:00:25 AM
Good morning, all. It's the end of my week off....sigh.

Plan for the day is to try to finish a diorama while also making more progress on my backdrop -- fixing seams where previous tape came loose. Should keep me busy.

Regards,
Vince

Morning Vince and others,

I'll be spending most of my day with a friend whom is in the hospital with congestive heart failure. He has quite a bit of fluid on his lungs and the docs are working on that. Bob is a retired Captain from New Orleans PD and his wife has dementia. Pam and I have been very busy for the past 36 hours.

Have a great day ya'll.

Good morning! Modeling day for me today.  ;D ;D ;D  It is raining here again, or still. This has been one of the wettest summers I can remember. I'm having trouble with the tractor sinking into the lawn when I mow - the ground is so water logged. We are thankful that this is happening in the summer rather than the winter in the form of snow. :o  I know there are some of you out there dealing with a drought - another supply chain problem. Anyway, I hope everyone has a great day. Here is another view of the F&SM.

Morning all,

Spent a good bit of yesterday cleaning/repairing the gutters (no, I didn't fall off the ladder this time  ::) ) and pressure washing the driveway and sidewalk to appease the HOA.  That kicked my derriere so today I'm declaring a me day.  I'll spend some time at the workbench otherwise I'll just sit back and relax.

Have a great one!

Has anyone got an update on The Railroad Line Forum?   I hope I don't get kicked off "the forum" for mentioning that name. :o

Good morning. Spend yesterday at the first post-pandemic meeting of the James River Division of the NMRA.  A great time was had by all. I was able to sell a significant amount of my unused rolling stock. Jim

Good morning, barely, from the NH seacoast.  The tropical storm left all the bogs, swamps and little streams full, but they're going down slowly.  Only a couple of little showers yesterday, chance of more today, then more rain tonight and tomorrow.  Better than a drought for most farming, but it has pretty much put an end to the first cut of hay.  We went up to Seashore for a modest Moxie Day yesterday, but today is home time.

Last I heard about RR-Line, Joe had hardware on the way and was waiting for the new forum software's vendors to move the data over.

Well, the good news is the Tour de France itinerary has lapped us.  It was here yesterday, but the decorations are still hanging.   Wife is getting increasingly less mobile, not sure we can continue to travel like we have done in the past.   :(


Lots of stone buildings to study for coloring...

John I talked to Rick yesterday one of the Admin's  There has been no word from Joe on when it will be operational!!
Last Rick heard was 2 to 3 weeks.  I think its the migration that's taking the time.

Thank you for the update!  Wishing those guys the best of luck.  There is room in this world for many model railroad forums. Even if it does cost me my donuts. ;D
