Good Morning All. 77° and overcast. Current radar view shows rain over the SFW estate, but it doesn't appear to be hitting the ground. It's definitely in the atmosphere though. High today is only expected to be 84° after a week of low-90's.
Patrick has been having our weather lately with his triple digits.
I managed to complete the mowing of the front yard yesterday. It had gotten higher than I realized and it looks like a hayfield right now.
Thanks again for the likes and comments regarding the layout progress, or were they for the bikinis?
Chet, Sherrel, Jerome, Guy, Curt, Phil, Tom.
Eggs over easy and a handful of bacon this morning Flo. Double glass of ice-cold OJ to go with it.
Made some progress in the train shed yesterday, slowly though. Moving on to the Historic Museum part of the CUP. I set up the track for the display of RR equipment.
Looks like everything fits as planned.
I also started cutting out and gluing together sections of the "hairpin" fencing that will keep my citizens/visitors safe from passing trains.
I want to ballast that track lightly and add ground cover to the area before installing the fencing. I am modeling this after the historical museum in Foley AL, that I have posted pictures of before.
Tom O - That's a really nice looking electrical sub-station. Is it scratch-built, kits or a combination of both?
Sherrel -
BEADY does not seem to be around - so in his honor - here is a close-up!
I'd be afraid of what
Beady might post!
Is that a drinking saloon, or a hair salon?
Hair Salon.
Good luck with the procedure today. Wear your mask.
Chet - As usual, nice looking scenes.
Patrick - Sorry to read of your daughter's setback. Fire station is coming along nicely.
I know that we have a couple of visitors here that do not wear masks in public during this Covid-19 pandemic. I fully understand the reasoning behind this. They are uncomfortable and there are mixed opinions even among medical professionals as to their effectiveness. A lot depends on local circumstances like Montana. I wear one whenever I go out in public because I am in four "at risk" categories, live in proximity to one of the "hot spots" (Dallas) in Texas and I don't wish to become a statistic yet. My own county is almost devoid of confirmed cases and there have been no deaths, so that is comforting and I don't fret too much about the lack of masks in the feed store or meat market that I go to around here. Never crowded so social distancing is easy. I still wear one however.
Well, since I started composing this post, the rain started, rather heavily, so I won't be removing those grass clippings from the yard yet. Ooooh! Thunder too! Won't need to irrigate the garden this week, tomatoes are still coming at me full force.
Everybody have a great day.
