Morning all,

Sigh...back to work after a nice, four-day weekend.  I managed to get a lot done at the workbench.  I'm close to wrapping up structure 8 of 8 on Red Hook Wharf.  A few more minutes on that one and it'll be done.  Still a bit to do, however.  Building the wharf itself and mounting structures on it.  Building a crane.  Plus making a base for the land-based structures.

Have a great one!

Good morning. 

Snowing here with about an inch or a little more on the ground.  NWS says to expect 3" by the time it stops snowing late afternoon.  I'll tell you tomorrow how accurate their guess was...

Everyone stay safe today whether from below freezing temperatures, or slippery roads.

Morning gang,

Not snowing here but damp all the same. Supposed to rain later, we'll see.

I need to update my REA thread as I'm way behind on the posting.

Have a safe and healthy day ya'll.

Nice big fluffy flakes on my coat.  It's "post card snow".

We're supposed to get a couple inches. 

Today's project is installing glazing in the windows for the brickworks.

Morning,

Coffee drunk, hair washed, face shaved now replacing handlaid track with better roadbed and flex track. Sigh!

Good morning! We are in day three of single digit and negative at night temperatures. I spent a little while cutting some of the trees that fell in the wet heavy snow followed by wind this past weekend. Really made a mess of things. The snow was so wet that it froze to ice when the cold came in behind the storm.  I'm 12 inches taller walking around the yard. 

I have been spending a lot of time on my modeling this month and have made a lot of progress.  I'm having fun. OPS session tonight - it has been a few months since I have made it to our local group.  

 I hope everyone has a great day.

I need to look into a trip down to Florida to visit one of Tom's Saturday meetings. It sure sounds like you guys have fun with it.

Morning everyone

The ground is snow covered about 3".  But now it has turned to rain.
That's the weather in South Jersey.

Been working on my Machine Shop & Train repair building.
I guess I should start a thread here so you can see it!

Everyone have a great day!!  :)

Yup - Tommy - if that stuff was to spec. you are having some cold weather.  I wouldn't use it on my car windshield.

As long as that is not in my garage I think it looks kinda pretty!
