Morning all,

Slept late again today though work yesterday was pretty easy.  Wife drove herself yesterday for the first time in over 2 months so she's certainly on the mend from her issues.  My granddaughter returned to school yesterday, so she's doing well, too. 

I will mow the yard sometime today, probably late this afternoon when it's in the 60s. 

Enjoyed Karl's picture yesterday.  The NCL two tone green is my favorite passenger scheme.  I have a Rapido train set of these, but they don't stay on the track well.

Good news on the medical front, Jeff!  

Sunny right now but a bit chilly in SE NH, likely to cloud up later today.  Weekend looks great, though.   Our monthly lunch group meets today.  Yesterday, I did a lot of clean-up around the corner of the layout where I've been doing scenery.  Rough scenery sure can be messy!

Good Morning Jeff and everyone else coming;

I got off to a late start also. Jeff that is very good news about your wife and granddaughter. Very good.

Another nice day on tap here in Florida. Our pool is currently being filled with water so appartently we are close to being finished. It will be nice to splash around in the coming hot weather. I continue to work on scenery both on layout and the Flour Mill. It is one of the most enjoyable parts of the hobby for myself. Yesterday I modified a design I found on line of a model hand dolly. I 3D printed the wheels and frame out, painted and glued a stainless steel tubing for an axle to it and ta-da a hand cart for loading the flour bags and barrels. Today, shovels, hammers, gloves and tool box.

Have a great day.

Good morning, all. Nice loading scene, Jim.  With an op session coming up, I'll spend my free time today on the layout.  May not get to Thursday's lounge till late, 1:1 overhead wire to hang at Seashore.

Bone chilling in MI this morning, but sun  8) is hinted at later.

Lots of bench time and a little layout time yesterday.  Off to the Doll's brother's B'day assemblage this evening.  ???

Be well all.
