Hey Trussrod, ran the Shay this morning at Brian’s home layout! It worked and looked great! The Shay, 2 log cars and the caboose for $100 with DCC installed. He has an awesome layout as well, sad that he is moving, it would have been great modelling with him. Some pics of the new train purchased and some pics of his layout. Some of Brian’s structures are scratchbuilt and weathered, the bluenose built from scratch as well.
Always sad when a layout comes down
Wisconsin used to have contractors in each county pick up the road kill. When that stopped (early 90’s ?)people all of a sudden noticed the dead animals and complained. It was then decided the County road crews would pick them up. Rightfully so, the Crews refused as it was not in the contracts and they were not properly equipped or trained. Now the police decide if the road kill is a hazard and if it’s on the shoulder it’s left for the carrion to eat it away!
Pomme frites, although it is the Dutch who like them with nayonnaise
I have seen animals on the side where flies have infested the body usually the haunches, I agree that people who are not trained and do not have the correct facilities should not be handling such stuff,the problem is people used to have jobs looking after the land and land management of animals was taken seriously as a hazard, but nowadays with the you must not kill this that o r the other people do not want to be associated/blamed and animals that are road kill or even injured are left which is frankly awful. plus of course there is not the issue of how to dispose at one time you could leave it for carrion in a safer spot or just bury it,nowadays all the rules forbid these type of actions and Marge fines can occur, so again people just go past and think not my problem not getting involved.
Positive side is that it’s his third set up and he loves building them, he was an artist or linked to art years ago.
Seed oils which are referred to as vegetable oils which is a lie, turn into trans fats the first time you heat them, so then you are contaminating your food with bad trans fats, and it has been proven that saturated fats are not bad for you or ŷour health and do not cause cancer thus it is much healthier to eat beef tallow or pork fat, and it satisfies your hunger pains way faster than the seed oils.
Alan -A good way to get exactly what you wanted!
Thanks !
I don't eat too much of anything. I do drink more coffee than most and I eat a couple of hotdogs more often than most. I cut back on ham and other cured meats. I even buy Oscar Mayer uncured hotdogs! If coffee and hotdogs kill me, so be it. You got to die of something! Thank you for always sharing your knowledge. It is nice to know you care. God Bless you.
Currywurst mit pommes und mayo, my favourite while stationed in Germany.
Looks great Gary
What no mushrooms. Sacrilege
Thank you, it’s a beautiful engine and car set for sure!
I just went downtown to buy some Elmers white glue and every store I went to was out. I needed to finish up some track roadbed ballast.
I have had trouble getting Elmer's White Glue or Glue All for a couple of months now. School Glue is available, but it is too watered down for me to use. I did score a bottle of White Glue on my last visit to Hobby Lobby though.
It was not there yesterday or last night. I didn't get out and look for blood as it was raining. Rain and hearing aids don't mix. A badly placed raindrop can screw them up forever.
