Good morning,

We're serving a full Irish Breakfast this morning.  Bacon, sausages, baked beans, eggs, mushrooms, grilled tomatoes, and some cooked leftover potatoes made into a hash. Some toast, butter, marmalade, and lots of tea to drink.  Have at it!

Currently 66 and heading to 77 today in Lake Mary, Florida.  But the pollen count has been off the charts this week, so I'll stay indoors and work on models. 

I made some decent progress on the soap company background flat the past two days and hope to transition to the distillery background flat later on today once the soap company is complete. What's on your agenda for the day?

Have a great one!

Morning Bob and others drifting in,

Thanks for the good ole Irish breakfast, nice and tasty as well as filling.

I'm getting much closer to finishing the frat iron build. I need to move on to other projects.

Have a great day ya'll.

Good morning everyone.

I can sum up the weather here in San Luis Obispo in one word, rain.

I don't see coffee on the menu so I fired up the coffee pot and it looks like it's ready to serve.

Because of the wet conditions outside, activities will be limited to the inside.

Have a great day everyone.

Wife made waffles, so I'll skip breakfast and just go with more coffee.

Yesterday there was an abbreviated 'Scotch Club', just the 'Laird' and myself (and I just do small tastes).  So we tapped into the top shelf of his collection, watching that weather front roll in with wind, falling temps and snow.  When I got home, I discovered we had run out of oil, the emergency resupply came about 8:30 yesterday evening.  The cold and winds continue today, but it's nice and sunny, viewed through the double pane windows.

Morning all.....

Good morning, all.  We went from temps in the 60's yesterday to the 20's overnight.  I'm heading to the train club to put the finishing touches on scenery work.

Good afternoon, all. If I had some Arbroath Smoakies I'd put them on the counter...  My weather is Dave's weather, but he reminded me to check my tank too: 1/4, which might take us through the end of the heating season.   I spent this morning planning this year's track work at Seashore Trolley Museum, then re-posting another few months of my B&M Eastern Route layout thread.  52 RR-Line pages have fit into 11 pages here. There are 44 more RR-Line pages to go.

Good afternoon, All!  Glad to see the Lounge open!

29, feels like 23 and a very bright, large white light is visible in the sky here in the northern mitten today.  The grey blanket has frayed considerably, the temps for the next ten days or so look very spring-like, and it appears from here that March will be a welcome respite from what Febrewery had to offer this year.

Thanks to James and others who are busily restoring RRL pages here.... That's a lot of work, and I appreciate their efforts.

More work on Division stuff and HoJo's this weekend, but the fried clams, hot dogs and 28 flavors of ice cream should be available soon, and then it's on to more layout work.  Make it a great day, All, and stay safe!

Didn't the final HoJo close last year?  

What cracked me up as a kid when we visited Plymouth, MA was the HoJo just across the street from Plymouth Rock.  "The Pilgrims landed and went straight for ice cream!"
