Morning, It's "Hump Day"

[Jim Donovan]

Good Morning Dan and all who follow today. Love the photo Dan, I feel like that some days. Beautiful weather on tap here in Florida Today. I plan to get some work done around the house and then play on the layout. Our cruise last week was really nice. The two new ships Princess has, the Sun and the Star are very much head and shoulders above their other ships. Made for a great time.

Well off for coffee and then some chores. Have a great day.

Good morning. It's cold but sunny  here today. Another perfect Maple Syrup freeze/thaw cycle. Sappy

Greetings Raymo and Jim.

Layout time is planned for today. We'll see. 

Little to add today. I need to button up the Atlas U30B I just put a keep alive in.

Someone forgot to letter that car with "Do Not Hump"....

Bright sun right now, no clouds.  Looking up, I could see a jet with contrails (more government distributed chemicals to control us.)  We're on a flight path for aircraft from Europe going to Mid Atlantic airports.  

I've mostly recovered from the mistake gluing the ends on the boxcar.  What I should have done was paint the undercarriage before adding the sides, but I forgot.  So now I think I'll mask off the sides and ends, spray paint the undercarriage, then finish assembly.  This kit is going well.

Good afternoon, Dan, Jim, Karl, Philip, Jeff, Greg, Dave and anyone looking in this afternoon. My stepson and I got rid of 3" of snow crusted by the rain that followed this morning, now it's 50-ish outside in the Merrimack Valley and I'm paying bills.

Dan, I'm wondering if I see a paper grain door on the derailed boxcar. Or maybe it's an earlier seal to protect some kind of delicate cargo.
