The
2008 Holiday ARG meet has come and gone. It sure was good seeing everyone again and finally meeting Jim in person. We had eight guys attend and the session was loaded with good conversation (lies
)and train operations.
The Dispatcher (me) needs to be fired, as he had a hard time staying on the job while piling up all the BS
. Jim did an excellent job for a yankee boy and being on a new layout. Eric did fair for a Park Ranger, while LGM ran perfectly.......well, until he lost his loco on the layout. Yeah, that's right,
lost his engine while running. (I'll let him tell the story, LOL). L&NCastle, operated the Ashland location and managed to keep Jim out of trouble over there. Mikey could only stay a little while, but got to meet everyone and got a tour of the layout. Scott and Bill, non-forum members, also were on board and kept the rest of us in-line...well, a crooked line
.
Jim: You were the only one that took pictures; would you mind posting them so all can see. BTW: Found your other radio on the Mountain View part of the layout. If you want, I can mail it to you.
Carey: Sorry the timing was bad for you, but I will have another one, probably in February.
Wish all of you could have enjoyed the fun. It is a wonderful experience when modelrailroaders get together for something like this. No pressure, no fast clock, no rivet counting, just plain ole fun.
And now >>>I"M TIRED!
