Early, for me, Saturday morning. 

We have rain, steady soaking roll over and "(*&^%$(*&^ it" rain, that is making lots campers grumble.  Thank goodness for the microwave, the fire is drowned, type of day.  Temp in the low 50s.

I have a noon doc appt. rescheduled from next Wednesday a couple days ago.  annual rewal of GI stuff.  Annual "Wellness Visit" with my "provider" is 1th of June. 

The Doll and I had a fine day yesterday.  My son decided his 50th with a couple friends was better than with the old man.  He headed to Northern lower MI to trail ride.  Hope he has mud gear...

Plenty of stuff on the bench when I get back home later in the day.

Good Morning All,

Thanks for opening and breakfast Rick. Did Star get her share of ice cream?

Starting out somewhere in the 70's heading into the 90's later. Got all the running around done yesterday although at the dealership it took significantly longer than expected and finally got a haircut.

Today MOH is going to the farmers market, I'm going to vacuum the pool since the water is cear and then hopefully start on the figure painting. We're also slowly cleaning out the garage.





I hope everyone has a good day.

Good morning everyone.

59 now in Iowa, cloudy and 74 later.

Coffee, sodas and OJ are ready.
Blueberry pancakes with Michigan maple syrup and fresh churned Wisconsin butter and sides of bacon and sausage for breakfast today.

Karl, happy birthday to The Doll!

Ron, hope it's all good news from the vampires.

Larry, will it be indoor or outdoor activities today?

Jerry, keep going on those great looking walls.

ACLTom, has Pam selected a color?

Philip, hope the money light doesn't come back on.

Dave, time is rushing quickly and those two weeks will be gone in a blink.

Mike, good news about the eyes.

Curt, hope there modeling time for you today.
Enjoying the pictures, keep'em coming.

TomO, how was the work session?

How's everyone else doing?

The stereo store was a disappointment.
It was much smaller than I thought it would be.
Not a big deal since I wasn't looking to buy anything.
Treated myself to a cheat meal of pizza and ice cream.
Pizza was OK but the crust didn't measure up to NJ standards.
Ice cream was good.
Gym this morning then start heading back to Sioux Falls.

This was from my hike the other day at Newton Hills.



Have a great day everyone.

Your recent work is looking great Jerry.
Hopefully the rest of the building will complement these fine looking end walls. Nice work.

Rich

Karl sounded like a nice day with the Doll.  Wish her a belated Happy Birthday!!

Jerry

Curt & Rick thanks for the nice comments.

Hopefully with rainy weather this weekend I'll be able to finish the two sides will see.

Jerry

Thanks gentlemen!
Just glad y'all are enjoying my insanity.
Currently working on something simple.
Of course I can't keep it simple.
Just a water tower/tank.

Track is over-rated on a model railroad. 

I resemble that remark (having worked on track about 40 days so far in 2026; hardly any of it on a model RR).

I use sprung trucks I find at shows and in kits. But my favorite brand is Lindberg They may have been the first model manufacturer to use Delrin (Dupont's version of acetal) plastic.
