Good morning everyone,

Thanks for the coffee and breakfast Curt.  Congrats on the new vehicle, with only 8000 miles, I bet it still has that new car smell.

Larry, hope the new order of details for the boat comes quickly.

Mike, have fun at the Piedmont Pilgrimage sounds like a fun event.

Rick, another great fall picture.

Dave, hope the car repair was reasonable.

TomO, enjoy your nap.

Jerry, with the rain, I hope you make it to the bench today.

Current temperature is 7c (44f) and raining.  It's a good day to work inside.  Well, I attended my 2 meetings that were scheduled this morning (online) so the rest of the day is mine.   After spending time last night trying to find the short on the turnout by making sure that all the PC ties had the proper gaps and adding additional gaps I still could not find the short, so I've given up looking for the short for now and will be replacing the turnout.  The new turnout is built and will be installed right after I finish this post.  Then it is on to cleaning the track and hanging the skirting, I'm in great shape for the open house tomorrow. 

Have a great day everyone.

Morning gang,

The cold front has arrived. 50's and suppose to fall to 44 overnight. The birds have picked the red berries clean off the dogwoods.

Got the car back and it's doing much better. New Rack and cv axel on the drivers side. The cv had a hole in the boot and was slinging grease.

Bout it from my foxhole.

Bright overcast and 30 mph gusts. Temps peak in the 50s after 3/4" of rain overnight.

Watched the Thursday nite football game last night from Denver. Nice to see a game with no emotions in the outcome. You could see the Seattle team was a sea level team. They still took it to overtime before losing.

TomO, sounds like a full day. I'd be really worn out. Been really feeling whipped at times lately. Left Ops Mon around 2 pm. Just seemed to hit the wall.

Bench time is definitely a thing for today. Put a couple more blue box coal hoppers together. Couplers, weights and wheels. 

Enjoy the day all.
