Good morning Curt, ACLTom, Larry, Rick, Karl, Mike, Jerry, TomO, Philip and the rest of the crew that drops in later.

Thanks for the coffee and breakfast Curt, have fun working on the build. 

ACLTom, hope today is a better day to get the yard work done, At least L don't have in issue with broken sprinklers, we don't have any. 

Larry, hope your successful with the backdrop install.

Rick, saw your video last night of the misty morning, what some great scenery, could really see myself living there.  As for work, Thursday is the busiest day for me due to 2 scheduled meetings every Thursday.

Karl, looking forward to seeing your recent layout progress pictures.

Mike, Painting details never seems to end.  Hope the cleanup goes well.

Jerry, glad you had fun with the grandkids yesterday.

TomO, sounds like your getting back to normal, good luck to the woman's hockey team this weekend.

Philip, enjoy your day.

Currently 50F and sunny here.  No time at the bench yesterday but I did managed a Hobby Lobby run to pick up some Arleen's tacky glue, .040 styrene sheets, black craft paint and some trees I didn't know I needed.   After that it was make supper and then watch the hockey game.

Have a great day everyone.

X and I spent big bucks for main floor seats to see/hear Neil Diamond in Detroit when he still had the marvelous voice. I sat next to a single guy, like you TomO the SOB knew all the words  . But unlike TomO he didn't know the tunes

Construction ahead

Using a roller to secure track to clear caulk stick-um goop

Nice sunny day, but that front that moved thru yesterday has cut the high down into the 60's today, burrrrrrr.....

Y'all have a good one.

[TomO/Tloc]

Good evening. The bar is open.

The Badger Women outplayed the Minnesota Gophers 6-2 and g on to the National Title game against Ohio state on Sunday. In 2o23 the Badgers won the title beating Ohio State 1-0. 2024 in the title game Ohio State won 1-0.  Should be another good one but I'd be shocked if either team gets shut out.

Sodas, bourbons, water and beers are in the coolers. The fireplace is roaring and it's toasty in the lounge. The popcorn is in the coolers. Be careful with the popping oil

Have a good night

Good Morning All,

Thanks for opening Tom. Enjoy your breakfast and day.

Today I have the same as always, coffee, cereal, bagels, yogurt, OJ, and soda.

Started out here at 46F and supposed to get to mid 70's today. Yesterday I finished detailing the 55 gallon drums. Today after a couple of chores I will get started on the hand tools that I blackened yesterday.

Karl interesting tool for track laying.

TomO I hope that the eye pressure works out with Terry's surgery.

Ron I was surprised to see that the local Jo-Ann's (closing) had some WS trees.

I hope everyone has a good day.

Well, its seasonally chilly but sunny in SE NH.  Today, I'll move to a different project, putting the Ambroid car on the shelf for a couple weeks.  Neighborhood Scotch Club meets this afternoon.

Good morning all,

Some coffee (black) and a donut will get me for breakfast this morning, thank you.
Weather here in Northern Colorado...37 degrees going for a high of 61. Nice springtime temps. But the part that makes it a bad forecast is once again the wind. Calling for gusts up to 55 mph this afternoon...blah, I am tired of the wind...and strong winds are in the forecast at least through Monday...yiha!! This will be a good day to hit the layout and get some stuff done. So, there is good in the bad forecast.

[KentuckySouthern]

Back after a delusional night of "sleep" an infinite pallet of greys and 32⁰ with breezy conditions. Forecast is for little improvement today.

No plans yet, think I'll have Tom bring me McD? MikGriddle and Diet Coke!

More layout time I hope today.

Be well all

No sooner than I posted the ugly weather report and the sun broke out with a serious "suggestion" of a road trip...it stayed cold but the Doll had a good time, and we ate well...I did get layout time

Good morning from Wisconsin. Another sleep in late morning. Normal pillow time I just seem to be sleeping better and longer, 7:40 this morning. Feeling good.

A nice bright cloudless Wisconsin morning. 31f degrees now 44 later.

A friend of Terry was just on the phone with her. They went to the opening round NCAA BB games at the Firserv Forum in Milwaukee. $60 parking 1/2 day!!! Games started at 10am and ran to 11pm. That's gouging at its best. They are trying to sell their tickets for Sunday

The grandson is playing hockey up North in Eagle River, Wi. At 4 hours drive time we are not going.

Hopefully I get some me time today but she is playing with a honey do list. Told her save the list till after her cataract surgery on Monday as I can do them while she is recovery relaxing.

Enjoy the day

Good morning Karl, ACLTom, Curt, Dave, Dale, Jerry, Rick, TomO, and the rest of the crew that drops in later.

Thanks for the coffee and bagel Curt, they had WS trees at Jo-Ann's?  Never would have thought to go there for scenery materials.

Karl, glad to hear that your Spartans are moving on.

ACLTom, glad to hear that your Gator's ate moving on too.

Dave, enjoy the neighbourhood Scotch club, I'm jealous.

Dale, have fun working on the layout.

Jerry, enjoy the time and dinner with Diane's son and his wife.

Rick, yup, running out of excuses to not do any modeling now.  Another great photo and god luck photo hunting today.

TomO, hopefully you can watch your grandson play on the internet, hope Terry's eye surgery goes well on Monday.

Currently 58f and sunny here.  Last night I watch the F1 sprint qualifying.  Tonight's plan is to watch the sprint race, main race qualifying and then hopefully hit the workbench, I have fire escaped to paint.

Have a great day everyone.
