Good chilled morning from Wisconsin. 43f degrees now feels like 40 and only heading to 63, but it shall be sunny.

Went to Volleyball on campus last night. Big time blow out. I'm not a fan of a major college team playing a cupcake school in any sport but the UW Badgers needed this. Coach for the 1st time in our 10th season as a ticket holder played all but 2 healthy players and they were starters!

Today is slot car day at the grandson's. 3 other grandparents and a single mom will be acting as chaperones and slot car attendants. This is the 3rd race day he and 3 friends have organized and the 1st with some scheduling issues. The 4 organizers forgot about the home Badger football game and that 7 of the 24 racers families have season tickets. That's where the grandparents come to the rescue. There will be a few kids staying until parents can pick them up. Races are scheduled to be done by 2:30. Thankfully the pool water is at 82 last night per the son in law. I did hire the 2 girls we have used for years to life guard the pool. Sophomores at UW this semester they willing and need the money again. Last year as Freshmen they were to cool to watch the pool.

No trains today.

8) Sun and barely into the 50s this morning, threat is of some rain later.  Football starts around here, no excitement from my SPARTANS and with dumping Directv I haven't been able to outsmart the TV for games or for LIONS either.  Oh well. 

Little new here, did another 4' backdrop panel last evening. 

Be well all, enjoy the kids, TomO.

Good morning everyone.

Cloudy with a high of 75 here in Washington north of Seattle.

ACLTom and Curt, thanks for the coffees and breakfast.

ACLTom, have fun with Bill running trains.

Curt, I guess you haven't gotten any updates on the two other kits you have on order.

Larry, that porch looks excellent.

TomO, have fun with the kids and the slot car racing.

Jerry, I hope you get some bench time soon too.

Karl, have you tried getting a digital TV antenna to try and get local TV stations that broadcast the games?
I did that in Jersey and it worked well.

Ron, I'll go check out your update next.

Greg, hope there's more sunshine abounding for you today.  ;D

Philip, glad to read about your breathing.

Mike, anything going on in GA?

I must of needed the rest because I slept much later than usual.
Treated myself to a burger, stout and porter at a brewery for lunch yesterday.
I'm parked at a casino and I think I'll stay here one more night and watch the Redskins game inside tomorrow.
I have a bunch of pictures to work and other than that don't have anything planned for today.

Have a great day everyone.

Rick
