Morning all,

March is here.  We had snow late yesterday, a high of 47 today should get rid of what little accumulation there was.  

A trip to the grocery store later this morning.  

Here's a pic of a mass of narrow gauge tank cars.  Tankers are my favorite type of rolling stock.  I'm starting a Proto 2000 kit of one today.

The market (Souk) at Marrakesh:

People in general don't like having their pictures taken, but this guy was OK if I took a photo of his cat:


German class this morning (I need to do some homework), then back to the two projects I started yesterday.  One is a boxcar kit, and the other is the scenery around the farm.  I laid down the road (plaster with a mixture of paint and glue), next step will be sculptamold around the rest of the area.

Bright sun and slightly warmer, or less cold, in MI today.

I have a loco apart on the desk in front of me, putting a keep alive 2 attached to the ESU sound board.  MRH mentioned some new style (new to me) small soldering devices and I have one coming from Amazon today.  I'll give it a try later. 

SPARY played well yesterday, Indycar was interupted by the game, NASCAR was interesting and we watched a movie in the evening. 

The first of 3 appointments for the Doll today, consult on Cataract procedure today, tooth cleaning one day and tooth removal the next.  .  I'll accompany here today, make sure "we" understand it all.  She's been given 3 or 4 options on the eyes, I don't recall any options when I had mine a year ago.  Different 'provider' does things different I gue$$

That's it here.  Be well.

Morning.  Another Monday,another Dr's appointment for Ma. Still cold here in the northeast corner of Massachusetts, sounds like better weather is coming next week. Still plugging away on my Fos KOM building,  hope to be done with it soon.

Good morning, Jeff, Dave, Karl, Dan and later visitors.  Bright sun on the NH Seacoast isn't forecast to get us above freezing today.  Warmer later this week but accompanied by storms.  Doing paperwork and tax stuff this morning, various choices for the afternoon & evening.

Huh, I posted photos to the wrong thread...  A Senior Moment...  We talked about taxes in German class today (in both languages).  The instructor is British, she and her husband get some UK pension money.  One participant is German, and he gets a small pension.  And I moved some retirement money from our time in Canada back to the US.

Afternoon all,

I edged and cut the grass this fine day. I'm in the train shed working on the RSM Horwood Bros. kit.
