Curt. Any updates on the huge " beaver" that's felling all your trees?

Past experience with peanut butter and snap traps worked in our house as well.

Morning Crew,
Also got my mopp cut yesterday and a Doc visit. I just started a dose of Prednisone for my hip ailment, already releaved somewhat. 

I'm not doing any modeling Rick. Mostly patterns.  I'm cheering everyone on tho, Does that count? ;D

This soon to be pattern below after I cut details into this smoothness. It's a tiny footer, 2.5" x 2.5 "

That is a magnificent kit. Much more to it than i could ever sit still long enough to finish.  ;)

Philip, did that image change sometime during the day?

Morning all,

Breakfast buffet is ready. Anything you want and drinks on the end. Water, coffee and fresh squeezed OJ.

Terry, yes, there is Horwood and many, many others to build. Not sure I'll live long enough to build all I want.

The Judge is coming over to run trains.

Have a safe and happy day everyone.

Tom

Good Morning,

Tom thanks or the fancy breakfast and java this morning. Have fun running trains with the Judge. With all those kits to build you'd better get busy.

What's the rest of you doing.

It's 45 with a high of 50 in New York; they're still trying to sell the "white crap" Mom. & Tues. so we'll see. Writing this while the floors dry then we'll see what develops the rest of the day; maybe some bench time.

Have a great day!! Be well.

Good Morning All,

Thanks for opening and breakfast Tom. I'll come down in awhile. Love the bond sign in the photo.

Slept poorly last night but it was my own fault this time. Yesterday I cleaned up the damage on the layout. There was more than I thought. No sign of Satan's spawn. I have the trees stored in 3 containers until the mouse is history.

Yesterday I partially built windows for the resin "stone" Foundry which is the most complex part of the kit.

Larry nice chapter but it seems like only the cool kids were able to go to the new ship!

I hope everyone has a good day.

Good morning folks,

Tom, thanks for opening, coffee, and breakfast. Wishing you a fantastic SBG.

How is the rest of the crew?

It's an overcast morning at 62°F and headed to 74°F.  Rained last night, and a few showers are headed our way.

I should finish the derrick crown this morning.  I need to read the combine kit instructions and decide on a passenger paint scheme for the BCMC.

Have fun,
mike
My current build is the Oil Derrick and miscellaneous rolling stock .

We went to a concert in Boston last night (Renaissance vocal music, mostly Palestrina).  It was great, but it was 1:00 AM when I finally turned out the lights.  So I'm dragging today.  The grey weather isn't helping, but it's on the warm side.  I hope I'll get enough steam to do something in the train room day.

Good morning everyone.

Oatman, AZ weather: 63 now and sunny with a high of 83 later.

ACLTom, thanks for the coffee and breakfast.
Have fun with the crew today.

Spent last night camping with my daughter, the two youngest of her kids. her boyfriend and his three kids, the boyfriends mom and step dad.
Had a great time.
I need to keep it short because I can already hear the kids and they'll be knocking on my door shortly.

Have a great day everyone.

Good morning gents.
I wish health, happiness, and at least a few hours of modeling time upon all of you.

Larry. "Cloud Dandruff" expected west of you as well as the winds of November kick up to  bring presents from Canada.

Good afternoon, all. Fired up the computer before lunch, now checking favorite sites.  I see blue sky a mile or two south of me, but there's a big dark cloud right over my house. A high of 60F in the 2nd week of November is enjoyable, but I'm wondering when the ground will actually freeze this year.

My shoulder is still painful but I slept better last night than the night before, so maybe up to the layout later.  The rail joiners I got Thursday will advance the street track project if I get off the dime.

Good Morning All,

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

Started out the day with a walk at 72F and very humid. This morning will be foggy for awhile. Yesterday I had a great time at Tom's although we were subjected to Christmas music at lunch. :-* No bench time yesterday.

Today MOH and daughter daughter are doing a skunk event on the east side of Tampa then going to the McDill AFB commisary. After chores I'll head to the workbench...someone has to sacrifice and I'll shoulder the burden. :o

I hope everyone has a good day.

Morning all,

Thanks for breakfast Curt. Yes, we did have a great time yesterday. The Christmas music was nice but way to early for it.

Pam's been in bed for the past three days with a cold and slight flu. So much for the flu shots.

Going to make an early grocery run to get a few things.

Have a safe and healthy day everyone.

Tom

Have have to appreciate Howard's humor on many of his buildings. You saw the Viagra tank car, hard to miss.

Here is another sign.
