Good morning folks.
It's sunny and cold today. I guess that's par for the course for this time of year. The good news is that daylight savings time starts in three weeks!
I don't think I have a choice so I may as well act like I'm on board for now! Now I just have to convince the three cats that dogs are fun! Wish me luck!
Have a good day everyone.

I have an interesting development going on in my house. A girl that use to work for my wife is having a tough time in life and needs help. From the sounds of it, she had abandonment issues with her parents that have carried over to her adult life. She had an apartment with her boyfriend and a good job with my wife's company. Well, she broke up with her boyfriend and quit her job during the break up turmoil. There is more to the story than that but it sets the stage for me to possibly have a house guest for the next few days/months. She's a nice girl with a very nice dog. We have a five bedroom house with only two in use, one for sleeping, one for trains! I'm not that excited to share our home with someone but everyone needs a leg up every once in a while. My wife is a very good influence on most people she meets, including myself, and wants to do this. I guess she has started a new job but needs a bit of time to save up for all the expenses that come with signing a lease. I don't think I have a choice so I may as well act like I'm on board for now! Now I just have to convince the three cats that dogs are fun! Wish me luck!
Have a good day everyone.
notice the spacing of the pilings as well. Either they flunked math or they had some extra pieces they wanted to use up (on the left end)
On the layout, I am continuing to build a stock yard for shipments of cattle to originate.
Happy Model Railroading.
I don't have any train pictures with me on the laptop so here are a couple of pictures from the track this afternoon.
I'm staying at the quality Inn across from the track and I can hear the beer at Hooters a couple of blocks up the street calling.
Good evening all.
I found a pretty cool trestle photo the other day, I just noticed that there is an old one laying in the stream and a bunch of rubble on the embankment, check it out:

Good evening. I just checked the status of my Ebay purchase, and it shows being out for delivery, as of 9 this morning. I think there has been a further delay, as I can't remember the last time I saw a mail truck out delivering packages at 7 at night.
I'm sending another of my recent purchases in to Intermountain, it was supposed to have sound, and doesn't.
