JIM, Willie, Louis -- All great photos! Willie, Garry beat me to the punch, but I picked up on the building under construction with the steel workers on top and the covered walkway over the sidewalk. Nice touch!
33 this morning, clear and calm! Heading to 75 high today!
I see that my daughter in Jacksonville, NC is getting hit with much rain this morning and Terry mentioned that it was raining there.
DAVE - Almost forgot - I know exactly where that Colorado photo was made. I drove up and down that road many times when I lived there - when the trees turn in the fall - it is really beautiful.
LOUIS - Thanks for that info - I will see if I am smart enough to make it work? Probably not!
Afternoon All,
Slept like doggie doo doo last night. I spent about an hour on the build today but I couldn't get motivated.
Terry- I'm glad something good came out of your injury.
Greg- Nice looking motor car.
Chet- I believe it's Joe who you meant.
Joe- Modern electronics ruined the concept of plug and play.
Willie- Thank you. Congrats on losing weight. I can't help but think you need a Pennsy train on your layout!
Louis- Great night shot at Altoona.
Max- I really like the CSX trestle. Is that the PA turnpike above it?

I hope everyone has a good night.
I do love the Tyco version, but I love this one as well!Good looking Tyco loco there!
Good afternoon. It has stopped raining and is 51.
Some of you may remember I spoke about raises and benefits where I work, and was rather outspoken about the purchase of a truck instead of a raise.
The end result is interesting.
I ended up getting a 75 cent an hour raise.
And the truck to use for “official business”, so I no longer have to use mine.
The raise was “meh”, the benefit is pretty nice.
Louis: My Costco membership dates back to when they were still called Price Club. Never had a problem with anything I bought there. What's unusual, was that we were in two different Costcos in two days. Normally, we go there once per month.
I might be the coldest this morning of the people who post here in the ANPL. I have an even 30 below this morning here in Park Rapids, MN.
I might be the coldest this morning of the people who post here in the ANPL. I have an even 30 below this morning here in Park Rapids, MN. Weather Underground shows a temperature of 27 below, Clear skys, 30.23 Barometric Pressure and Winds Zero MPH, ?out of the North? I will be going out in it to go to men's Group at Church and I no longer worry about whether my car will start, anymore! Back in the 80s and 90s I would have plugged my car in to warm the engine before trying to start. Even engine warmers are no longer needed!
If you have colder temperatures, let me know.
I'm surprised that you didn't pick up on that when you visited. I'll try to get a closer shot today for all who noticed it.Willie, Garry beat me to the punch, but I picked up on the building under construction with the steel workers on top and the covered walkway over the sidewalk. Nice touch!
Box it up and I'll PM you an address!I can't help but think you need a Pennsy train on your layout!
Boris There are only a few cobblestone streets left in Pittsburgh. They look good, but I don't think anyone will miss them as they are rough and noisy.
