Good Morning All. Another quite foggy morning with 58°, dense fog advisory until 10:00 am. At 81° yesterday, we didn't set the high temperature record, but it is interesting to note that it was warmer yesterday than it was on July 4 this year!. We may or may not break the record high for today of 82°, depending on when the fog actually lifts. Mid to upper 70's for the rest of the year. The skunk aroma is still lingering outside this morning; I need some wind today!
Thanks for all of the likes and comments regarding my various posts yesterday, here and on other threads.
Mexican Omelet and a tall OJ for me this morning Flo. After all, this is a diner!
Since the major Christmas gift exchange scheduled for yesterday has been postponed, I don't have a great amount of modeling booty yet. I have my son's gift that the brown Santa (UPS) brought by a few weeks ago. There's a Walther's Cornerstone kit of an Antiques Barn.
And there was a Woodland Scenics animal figure set of cougars. Sorry
Sherrel, they're the four-legged kind!
They've already found a spot on the railroad for now.
I did manage to spend a little time painting the concrete loading dock and window sills yesterday as well, on the DPM warehouse.
Next up are the windows and then the mortar wash which will tone the brick color down somewhat. The dull coat didn't quite do the trick by itself.
Steve J - i used to raise Muscovy ducks that I butchered and ate. Sold some live ones to Orientals who would keep them in their apartments until they were ready to eat them. Muscovies are silent ducks so their neighbors wouldn't know that they were keeping them inside the apartment complex. They also dressed out at between five and six pounds. My business lasted for four years until one day they realized that there was a giant pool full of water there in the yard! They were tasty.
Jaz - I also plan to stay on Earth. The science behind space travel is somewhat fascinating though.
Tom O -
I could see Terry reducing actual working parts down to HO scale while I slept
Is she known as Lorena Bobbitt in a previous life?
OB Ken - That's a drag.
For those of you in the Commonwealth countries, today is known as Boxing Day. Nothing to do with brawling, just another of those made-up holidays I suppose. For us Catholics, it is the Feast of St. Stephen.
Everybody have a great day whichever one you celebrate if any at all. Stay safe.
