Good morning!  I'm getting ready for the show & snow today.  I really don't need anything, but how can I miss the show when it's only an hour drive away.  Got the generator & snowblower all gassed up & ready, plus written work instructions for my wife on how to use them!!

Good morning.


Another single digit start to the day here.  That's OK because once again I plan to stay inside where there is heat.


Working on the layout though there is little to show in photos of my progress, lots of planning what might fit where plus a lot of head scratching.


Everyone have a safe and productive day!

Good Morning Everyone;

Woke up to drizzle, gray cool bordering on cold weather. Apparently it is going to be much worse this weekend. For those going to the show please send pictures.

Well time for coffee. Hope everyone has a great day.

Good morning! Single digit temperatures here, too.  It looks like this snow storm is going South of us so I can stay inside and work on my models. Safe travels to all that are going to the show - I wish I could go, but there are a lot of miles of snowy roads between here and there. I hope everyone has a great day. From the F&SM:

Good Morning All,

Feeling a little bit better today but still chilled. I may try to go to the train room later.

I hope everyone has a good day.

Latest forecast calls for 3" in Springfield MA Saturday, and maybe 7" here in Dover NH.  That's good, I can easily deal with that.  (Forecasts here have ranged from 6" to more than 18", so apparently this storm is expected to track further out to sea than original expected.)  I gassed up the truck and double-checked my wallet to make sure I had enough cash.  And I printed out the exhibitor list so I can mark those I want to be sure to visit.

I like your forecast Dave! I just talked with Brian Bollinger, he said vendors were still cancelling today.

Hopefully the vendors with all the bargains are still coming.
