Morning everyone

Curt thanks for the coffee & breakfast.
Yes Dad's can sometimes want to tell you how to do it the right way or there way!!  ;D

Larry hopefully your kit is coming soon.  I'm sure Brett got swamped with the new kit.

I bet it feels good Tom to get one more thing out of the way.

Dave looking forward to the lights.

Karl nice to know some places go the extra mile to help their customers.

Mike hope you get some time working on the layout.
A second career I would want to retire after the first good luck to him.

Weather in South Jersey P.sunny/77.  Later 85 with T=storms.
Had a nice day yesterday at the beach with friends.
Hopefully today I will get some time at the bench.

Everyone have a great day!!  :)

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

Thanks for the coffee and breakfast Curt, hope the cleaning goes well and good luck at Costco, hopefully the bill won't be to high.

Larry, have fun working on the layout.

Tom, glad to here no attorney was required to settle the estate.  I know when my Dad passed away he had everything in order so everything went smoothly.

Dave, water the flowers and then it rains.  I think that is a normal pattern in life.

Karl, the PT always seems to take awhile before results are seen.

Mike, enjoy your time with your son.

Rick, enjoy your "lazy" day.

Jerry, hope you make it to the bench today.

Terry, hand laid code 83 track and turnouts, that's my kind of layout building.

It's currently 22c (72f) and partly cloudy here.  No modeling lately, but the weekend is coming so I do see modeling in my future.

Have a great day everyone.

As of mid day, Erin is projected to head due north by Tuesday, after starting a more northerly turn on Sunday. If it continues north it will hit New England or Eastern Canada, but they generally keep turning to to a more northeasterly heading and head off to Europe. Another day of sunshine with the usual scattered boomers in the late afternoon. Y'all have a good one.....

Good Morning All,

Today for breakfast is coffee, cereal, yogurt, donuts, blackberries, OJ, and soda.

Started out the day with a walk at a feel like temp of a cool 87F. Today the AC guy will be here at 9 am to install the new thermostat and tonight we pick up Dad (past my bed time). Other than that it's just the day-to-day stuff.

Tom are you doing a SBG tomorrow?

I hope everyone has a good day.

Good morning,

Curt, thanks for opening, coffee, and breakfast.  Safe travels to your Dad.

It's a warm day here, with a forecast of 93°F. Headed to Daughter's for the day.

Have fun,

My current build is the Oil Derrick and miscellaneous rolling stock .

Good Morning,

Curt thanks for the coffee and breakfast. Don't you just hate it when something makes you go past your bedtime; I guess we're creatures of habit. Good luck with the new install.

Mike enjoy spending time with your Daughter.

What's going on?

It's a sunny 62 with a high of 86 in New York. Need to take some bottles to the recycler in a little while then I need to take Mr. B back to the Vet's, again, for an antibiotic shot; the poor cat is sneezing lots and the nose stuff is flying everywhere. He had this problem as a kitten and it's come back to haunt him; other than that he's not doing too bad for 15.

Have a great day!! Be well and stay safe.

Sunny and cooler today.  We had another quick but heavy thunderstorm last night, triggered obviously by my replacing the old beat-up sprinkler with a new one.  Other than that, I got nothing accomplished yesterday.  Hopefully I'll get more motivation today.

Larry before I went on vacation you were waiting on vet test results for Mr. B. Did you get them?

Larry glad to hear Mr. B is a little better.

Weather on South Jersey is sunny/79.  Later on 82.

Good morning everyone.

Spokane weather: A 20 percent chance of rain before 11am. Partly sunny, with a high near 82.

Curt, thanks for the coffee and breakfast and hope the airport pick-up goes well.

Larry, hope the shot helps Mr. B.

Mike, have fun with your daughter.

Dave, I'm sure you'll be motivated to get some things done.

Greg, that projection sounds good.

Ron, weekend is almost here.

Jerry, was time spent at the bench?

What's everyone else doing.

I have some errands to run today.
I need to go back to the ER I was at two weeks and get my prescription changed to a less expensive drug.
Need to find a library to print out a few things.
That's all I've got planned so far.

This is from last year at Great Falls, VA.

Going to keep this short this morning as i have a couple of deadlines today.  I haste it when I have to work when I'm supposed to be off (grrrrrrrr).  Should be done by 2:00 then the rest of the day is mine.

Morning all,

Breakfast this morning is cheesy scrambled eggs with link sausage. Drinks on the end with fruit bowls for those cutting back.

Yard work yesterday. Edging, cutting and trimming. You know all the good stuff that comes with being your own yard man.

The Judge is coming over this morning to run trains. I'm sure there will be some BSing involved.

Have a great day everyone and stay safe.

Good Morning All,

Thanks for opening and breakfast Tom. I'll see you in a bit.

Got home last night about 2230. Dad's plane was actually 20 minutes early! :o How often does that happen anymore?

Nothing much to say this morning.

I hope everyone has a good day.
