Louis - I do remember that song from the early 2000's. Always liked Tommy Iommi...did you know that he played briefly with Jethro Tull in the 60's before forming Black Sabbath?
Kissing? Well OK, but no tongue.
Blessings and good wishes are accepted in the spirit in which they are given. Thanks, and the same to you.
One other thing: “There are many things from which I might have derived good, by which I have not profited, I dare say,” returned the nephew. “Christmas among the rest. But I am sure I have always thought of Christmas time, when it has come round—apart from the veneration due to its sacred name and origin, if anything belonging to it can be apart from that—as a good time; a kind, forgiving, charitable, pleasant time; the only time I know of, in the long calendar of the year, when men and women seem by one consent to open their shut-up hearts freely, and to think of people below them as if they really were fellow-passengers to the grave, and not another race of creatures bound on other journeys. And therefore, uncle, though it has never put a scrap of gold or silver in my pocket, I believe that it has done me good, and will do me good; and I say, God bless it!”

Good morning. I'll take a sticky bun with my coffee today. Starting off at 7 above with clear skies. The forecast for the weedend is a winter weather advisory. Already have snow, but a white Christmas with snow falling will be nice.
David - The Horseshoe Meadow Deport is really nice. Well done.
Later.
Good Morning again. Got home late last night and got up at the normal time of 4:30. After stoking the fire and taking BP meds, I laid back down and slept until 7:30...I don't usually do that. Had a most excellent time at my brother's surprise 60th birthday party last night. Lots of rush hour accidents and 26 miles of freeway construction on the major freeways in Dallas made the trip in take two hours (planned), while the trip home at 10:30 took only one hour. Quite the difference.
Earlier in the day in the train shed, I made the decision to go ahead and use #4 turnouts instead of #6 on the expansion that I pictured yesterday. With that plan, I did start to add roadbed and nail down a little track, but the plan is stalled because I don't have any #4 RH turnouts...won't be visiting the LHS until the week after Christmas. I knew this in advance, so it wasn't a disappointment; I have plenty of other projects to do anyway.
David - Great little depot picture.
Everybody have a great pre-Christmas Eve.
Willie
David Great photos David, thank you!!! We have to talk to Santa, you should defiantly be on the nice list, must be a clerical error.
Afternoon All,
Did some cleaning around the house today. I did some odds and ends on the layout for awhile also.
CA Dave- Nicely done on the depot. Cool little loco. I have a similar one that a friend passed on to me along with a Lionel pocket watch (that I put in a display case) that belonged to his father that had passed away. He said I would appreciate it, which meant a lot to me.

I hope everyone has a good night.
An early Merry Christmas to you Louis in that case. I don't know what was going on then, maybe because I was accessing links via another link, via the link to the MRforum site. Was trying to get to this guy's y/tube vids actually on y/tube, so I could Subscribe to them. Eventually found that by hi'lighting the links and copying each one in turn and pasting to the search bar on the y/tube page, it worked. Might not be the techy way, but if it skins the cat, I'm happy. (not nice for the cat though, just as well he's figurative)
MERRY CHRISTMAS! I just got called, guess i wont be home for Christmas. Someones got to move this freight. At least i will get Holliday pay back home tomorrow. Please be safe in your travels. Ron
