Morning all,
Sunny and headed to 57 F (14 C) degrees today.
Trip to Costco and grocery store on the agenda for the morning.
I'm sort of working on the layout, considering installing backdrops. Will post on my layout thread later.
Need to work on a kit or some freight cars as it's still a little cool (66 F/19 C) in the layout room.

Good morning, Jeff. Sunny and 40-ish on the Gulf of Maine. Heading out in a few minutes for more track work at Seashore. Then Planning Board tonight, so model work unlikely.
Morning all. A quick photo of this weekend's scratchbuild.

Have a good week,

Jeff, welcome to retirement, where your time is no longer your own, but set by appointments, errands, etc :P
Matt, that looks great. I like the leaves accumulated at the top of the storefront and along the window openings, and the rat. Does the rat have a name?
Sunny now, off to German in a bit. When I get back, more scenery work.

Some sun 8) in MI this morning and continued 30s, chilling things. Chilly mixed bag of weather is forecast with a Warmer trend coming in a few days.
MAY take a short road trip today, if/when the Doll surfaces. We had a nice visit with the Geek squad crew yesterday and brief visits with most of the family. Ate too well for the second day straight.
VERY little model work over the weekend. I do have a group of loco parts on the desk waiting at this point on a NWSL gear/wheel puller as a couple wheel sets are a slight bit out of gage. Just about enough to pick points if trackwork isn't perfect. Some I operate on isn't.
Layout always is calling for my attention. Beats basketmoneyball for tonight. ??? No pull toward either of the finalists. :-X
Dave,
Thus far, the rat is unnamed.

Afternoon all,
Matt, that looks awesome! :o ;D
I need to look over, maybe fill out, a claim form for a class action lawsuit. After that I'll pop in a movie and pull out the workbench.
Have a great one!

I despise class action lawsuits. The only people who actually profit are the
bleeping lawyers, and they usually get 1/3 off the top (independent of how much -or how little- work they put into the case.) Over the years, I've received a bunch of notices, and the most I got was $50. The one class action where we actually could have recovered significant money (failed plumbing, we had to rip out and replace all the plumbing in our house) was -out of money- by the time we had a qualifying claim.
