Morning all.

TGIF, my four day weekend is here.   I have an MRI scheduled this morning and will go out for an early dinner this afternoon to a set of villages west of here called the Amanas.  They are an Amish sect from Germany and have restaurants that serve great food.  Der sauerbraten est wunderbar!

Good Morning Jeff and everyone that follows. It is raining up in Toledo today. Last day of babysitting, tomorrow off to SC for a week. Today I hope to visit the local hobby shop. They sometimes have interesting train items and a great paint selection so hope to load up.

Hope everyone has a great day.

Jeff, do they do Shoo-Fly Pie?  Very much NOT on my diabetic diet, but still delicious!

Our heat wave continues, and I've been seeing/hearing reports on the storm damage in VT and northern NH.  I'm glad my friend did the Appalachian Trail last year.  

Yesterday I did some work on the shelf part of the layout, and in particular continued one wall on the bay window building to continue it a bit farther towards the backdrop.  Today I'll start painting that.  And I'll do more work laying out the cobblestone streets.

Morning all,

Hmmm....Shoo-Fly pie.  Bought one (wet bottomed) when we up in PA last month.  It's a once every two- or three-years type treat.

Did my walk this morning.  I'm up to 2 1/2 miles.  The legs are fine, but the lower back can get a little sore.  Next up is the grocery store and then some workbench time.

Have a great one!

Can testify to the Vermont storm damage.
The street end of my brother-in-laws driveway was washed away by the hurricane that devastated VT last year. Wednesday nights strom took out the repaired section, culvert, gravel fill and all.
