Good Morning;

Guess I have the honor of opening today. I'm first this morning at eye doctor to get left eye zapped. I was told I have 'narrow angles' which leads to a form of glaucoma. Right eye done last week, left eye's turn. Nice to know some issues can be fixed before they are an issue.

Hope everyone has a great day.

Morning,

Smiling at the clear skies knowing that it is all not going to matter if I sit in the basement. Hmm, tough choice between the bright skies or clouds of dust on the workbench.

Good Morning All, Stay safe.

Morning all,

Speaking of plumbers I need to call one. Got a drip coming out of the stem from one of the faucets connected to the washer. My plumbing skills are very limited.

Nothing to report on the workbench front.

Have a great one!

The more plumbing I've had to do, the more I'll pay someone else to do it.

Today's household chore is to get a can of spray foam and close up a hole where we think the expletive deleted mice are getting into the house. I got the prototype cut for Amesville Shop's new DLW car kit (34' box), and started that last night. I might get back to that tonight after my class.

Prof. Laird said her father would be proud of the "Laird Stone Products Co." building. Turns out he was a director at one point for the Providence & Worcester RR.

Good morning! I'm going to split my day between outside chores and the layout. I can finally mow the lawn - we got so much rain last week that everything was soggy. The grass seed I planted is growing somewhere down hill from here.

I hope everyone has a great day.

Trifecta!
Sump pump being replaced this afternoon. Don't need a wet floor in "the train room".
Bob, if you haven't called the plumber yet, look right behind the valve handle. There should a six or eight sided fitting surrounding the valve stem. Slowly and Gently tighten it. That may stop the drip and expense. Let me know if that works: I'll forward my bill for less than the plumber.
