I'd be happy to buy a round! (just don't serve me any of those pickled beets. Very few things I don't like, but pickled beets and stewed tomatoes make me very... uh... shall we say green?)
As I was having lunch after Church I looked out my kitchen window and behold I see a flashing light right in front of my house. Went to the dinning room to get a better look, and there was a firetruck sitting in front of my driveway. Looked around and said to myself, "Don't think my house is on fire....". Then I noticed the electric lines to one of my neighbors houses laying in the road. Evidently the wind storm we had this morning bent the limbs on a tree enough to break 2 of the 3 wires. New York State Gas and Electric had it fixed in less than an hour. Sure am glad I didn't rush out to mow the lawn. I might have been standing right under the wires when they came down. Of course my neighbor right across the street was mowing his lawn (a daily ritual) but he did stop while they fixed the wires........
Darn it, Steve! I was all packed and ready to come by and pick up a load. I was really going to enjoy the trip by stopping in on Fergie on the way and then meeting you and then Ken. Oh well, just let me know when your ready and I will gas up the BIG truck again (rent a tanker).
I have been having layout problems in trying to decide how to do an industrial area on the extension. I have gone from just track and fake it: to a few buildings, to more buildings, to more buildings but different industry, to...
Now I realize that I was trying to do too much with too little. Guess I need to let go of a few dollars and do it right.
NZKen: Uh...what did you have to eat before you went to bed

Somebody say Donut's,,, mmmmmmm
I would not like an MRI brain scan again in a hurry, what a noisy job it was, a bit like lying on top of an SD45 in a well lit tunnel, without the smell of course
Sorry Ken, no logs today, got rained off by a monster thunder storm, hope Rex isn't on his way to collect them

Looking at the green lights I'd say everyone is in right now! I guess it's Ray's turn to buy!
Got the beets pickled and bottled all 20 jars!
Just working on the bridge at this point.
Later all

Afternoon All: Well it's been along and hard day. Not hard in the heavy work stuff but in the agrivation and noncense stuff. It's just a typical getting ready for halloween day.
I didn't get to hit the Cliffs head frames. I need to call over to the outfit that supplies the PVC sheet and order a sheet of the 1mm and 2mm. I really want to give that a try.
If any of you (Josh) check out the Michigan Mining History site go to the links and take a look at them. There are some very interesting places to visit up there.
Well, it's almost time to head for home. I'll check back in later.
