Good morning, all,

Sunday morning and last day of a week's vacation. Work on Monday.  But retirement is coming fast (Feb)!

Making breakfast for the extended family this morning, then maybe chores, watch the Phillies later.  Maybe some layout work.

Stay well!

Good Morning All,

Probably no layout work today since I'll be at Dad's doing things with him.

I hope everyone has a good day.

Morning,

A day of rest for me today. I am so tuckered out from this heat and humidity.

Morning all,

Maybe I'll do the pressure washing today that I didn't do yesterday.  Maybe.   ::)  Otherwise workbench time.  Lot's of detail castings to prepare and paint plus a small build on the side.

Have a great one!

Morning, all.

Washer made weird noises yesterday.  Repair appt Friday, but we're going to go look at new ones today if the repair is too costly.  The pair is 15+ years old.  I'm surprised there's still a Sears repair service in town.

My wire arrived late yesterday and today I did the power feeds for the 6 new switch machines I added last week.  Tomorrow I'll power up the distribution board and test them :-)  Then I'll probably replace the Walthers machine I put in one difficult location with another Switchwright.  Consistent power and control is A Good Thing...   Duncan McRee says they found a source for the Switchwright components so I ordered the machines for the rest of the layout.
