Morning all.

Jerry, you're not the only school tax state.  We passed an eight year income tax surcharge for our county years ago, that somehow became permanent and the state took it over so the money doesn't even stay here anymore.

Sunny and 80s here today.  Need to take the wife to ortho for some injections this morning.  Stop for lunch on the way home and then goof off the rest of the day.

Nice work on what looks like a fun kit to put together.  Fits in your scene perfectly.

Morning all.

Hopefully all our Floridian/Southeastern U.S. friends are safe from the storm. No rain here, though we could use some.  

Maybe some layout work later, maybe just a lazy day.  

A Huey from the airshow.

It's almost a shame to hide all those details behind a wall and curtains.  Nice work.

Morning all.

Slept late after a tough work day yesterday.  The other provider went home sick and I worked solo.  At least we got out on time. 

Nothing planned today, but may tinker on the layout. 

This plane is a trainer/transport from WW2.  I saw over Iowa City when out on my walk a few days before the Oshkosh air show.  It's a tribute plane to the women who piloted in WW2.

Afternoon, all.

Late check in.  Already have done some errands, gone to the grocery store and picked up lunch.  Pharmacy trip and lawn mowing await.

Morning all.

About twenty degrees cooler than yesterday and might rain.  Getting some slow progress on the layout. 

Hawkeye offense woke up in the second half to beat our evil rivals from Minnesota, and win back Floyd of Rosedale, a bronze pig.  What else did you expect from a Midwest rivalry game?   8)

I need to defrost the mini fridge today.  Pretty exciting day planned here.

Morning all.

I have my computer area which is adjacent to the workbench for building structures, rolling stock, DCC installs, etc.  Also a table saw/drill press area in the lower basement (under the garage).  The layout looks like a work area, as there is stuff all over it.  :o

Hot day here today.  I got a lot accomplished yesterday, just nothing layout related.  I'm heading out to lunch later, might wash the car this afternoon and need to mow in the next couple of days.  Hawkeye football this evening.

Some people consider Mustangs a religion.  My brother does with Trans Ams.   8)

Doug, Nice Ride!  I'd like those wheels on mine.

Morning all.

Made it to my four day weekend.   :)  Guys will be delivering water softener salt sometime this morning.  This afternoon I have an ENT appointment as I can't hear out of my left ear and probably need a new tube placement, as the one I had placed last year has fallen out. 

Hope to get some layout work done over the weekend as well.

The tree down the street that is usually the first to start turning fall colors is a nice shade of red. 

I liked your pics yesterday, Doug,  of the fall colors where you are.  What kind of Mustang do you have?  Presently my ride is a 2021 Mach e.  I know they shouldn't have called it that as it's not a "real" Mustang, but it's quicker than my 2007 GT was.

Morning all.

Late check in as I had a haircut appointment today.  

I'd rather clean dryer lint than put up with work.  Seventeen more months.  I'm not sure I'll make it.  :P

Morning all.

Good to see your guard dog on duty, Doug.   Cool steamers picture as well.   

The back street is done, now to start finishing the scenery behind it.

Looks like a fun little kit.  The color is called "sky" as it's a WW2 RAF color used on the underside of some aircraft.  Not sure why they called it that, must have been partially color blind.  :)

Morning all,

Hawkeyes were behind at the half (embarrassing), but managed to wake up in the second half.  Hopefully the Patriots will win today as well, but in a rebuilding year, it's doubtful.

Worked on the roads yesterday, I think the finish is done, now to install them.
