Afternoon all,

Love that picture, Dan.

Not sure what, if anything, I'll get into today. Just taking it easy for the most part.



Have a great one!

Good morning, all, and thanks for breakfast, Dan.  Apple is promising 100% thunderstorms at 5PM but the Weather Service is much less sure.  I got zoomed over several times passing through Portsmouth yesterday early afternoon. They were all done when I returned, having worked on track after a derailment that I don't believe was the track's fault (broken part in the truck that derailed).

Almost all my Summercrisp pears have fallen off the tree, but they're still hard enough for storage and sour enough that many wouldn't eat them until they'd aged.  I've broadcast that to the family.  Doing paperwork today, including preparing forms for my Concord Flyer contest entries.  I also need to clean up the layout, test operation and generally prepare for tour visitors on Wednesday and Sunday.  Given the number of other things on my mind, I'm glad I didn't offer operating sessions.

Ron, seeing all the angles you cut I can see how your saw and protractor came in very handy.
Those bents look great.

Can't wait to see your drill press.  ;)

deleted that in my post but didn't see a way to add a different picture in the edit window so posting a picture here.

This is a view from Dickerman Mountain.

Good morning everyone.

Cloudy with a high of 75 here in Washington north of Seattle.

ACLTom and Curt, thanks for the coffees and breakfast.

ACLTom, have fun with Bill running trains.

Curt, I guess you haven't gotten any updates on the two other kits you have on order.

Larry, that porch looks excellent.

TomO, have fun with the kids and the slot car racing.

Jerry, I hope you get some bench time soon too.

Karl, have you tried getting a digital TV antenna to try and get local TV stations that broadcast the games?
I did that in Jersey and it worked well.

Ron, I'll go check out your update next.

Greg, hope there's more sunshine abounding for you today.  ;D

Philip, glad to read about your breathing.

Mike, anything going on in GA?

I must of needed the rest because I slept much later than usual.
Treated myself to a burger, stout and porter at a brewery for lunch yesterday.
I'm parked at a casino and I think I'll stay here one more night and watch the Redskins game inside tomorrow.
I have a bunch of pictures to work and other than that don't have anything planned for today.

Have a great day everyone.

Hello Dave, the forge and blacksmith add another touch of realism to your very fine machine shop build. Very nice modeling.
