Good Very Hot afternoon, It was just slightly cloudy a little earlier, lets see what it's like out now? The sky is a mixture of some clouds and the rest is covered with a very thin layer of the wispy Circus type clouds so maybe, just maybe, it might really cloud up and rain good?? That probably wishful thinking on my part. My male cat didn't want to stay out earlier so I let him back in the back pourch but when I noticed the thermometer read 100*F I figured it was time to bring him inside where it at least a little cooler.
Lets see what WW says: 103.8 °F - Feels Like 102 °F, the Humidity is at 14% and winds are out of the SSE at 5.3 Mph. The night time temp is
dropping to 72 °F so it really not too comfortable of sleeping weather for me but I'll bear up under it.

On my layout I corrected a spot on the code 55 Whiskey siding where I was getting a derailment as I guess rail nearest the edge was a bit out of gauge so I placed a code 55 gauge on it and drilled a spike hole up against the rail on each side and spiked the inside first as it seemed as if the rail was bowed in a shade and then spiked the outside an now the cars roll through just as they are supposed to.
So now I can get power extended over to the new addition on the mainline as well as the siding as well as to the turnouts and get more ties placed under the turnouts and start getting the main line extended as it starts going around the the hill on the upper-line.
That's it for now.
