Morning all, 63° and rainy this morning with a high later of 80°. Some storms may be possible. I did drive through some heavy rain bands on my way in this morning and there was an apparent tornado this morning a few counties over, no word on damage yet, but it is a sparsely populated area. BBL

Only train store in the area is a small one in Mulvane. Only open on Saturdays. Hobbytown at Kellogg and Rock used to have more than they do, but they got rid of a bunch of stuff when they relocated in the strip mall they're in. IIRC, I think I heard about one in Hutchinson, but never been there.

Cheney is a nice town. Sedgwick county fair is there. I have family in Pretty Prairie. I'm east of Andover and work for Derby.
