Lot's of reading and listening in here since I went to sleep last night. Welcome to the Coffee Shop BigE.

Oh, if anyone so feels inclined to contribute to the bounty on my head, I can supply the account details of a Swiss bank.

Escaping gets expensive (I've also got some MRL stuff to get yet too).

One of these days I should take a trip over the mountain to the MRL shops in Livingston, MT and see if I can come up with some souvenirs for you. When Burlington Northern were in the shops I was good friends with the shop foreman over there.

Sounds like me, with the shop crew at the B&O/Chessie Riverside Shops in Baltimore MD. Ah, those were the days...got quite a few good slides of 1st gen motive power. Many of those got ruined by mildew, but I did manage to save a handful and 'digitize' them and post them online.

I off again, time to make the Pizza! My son-in-law is picking up my boys so I am getting a head start on dinner. I try to make them pizza on Fridays
 


My friend & I are the designated drinkers. The only problem is that we have to put the beer down to throw the ball.

Kind of early to be starting on supper ain't it?

My boys are hungry when they get home from school and we go to bed early, 8pm at the latest.

I am diabetic so I always eat at least 2 hours before bed to give me time to get my blood sugar down. A little bit of walking goes a long way.

I hope you get a couple of turkeys Montanan!
 
Seems that the one review wasn't very favorable..........quality appears to be a problem. Maybe it would be a good scratch building project.
 
Well, we've been having a heatwave here in Forgottonia. It got up to 40° yesterday and 43° today and the weatherman promises even warmer for tomorrow! Hope he's right. Thanks for the birthday wishes, they were appreciated.
 


Evening All,

Got back around 4 PM from our trip to Sarasota. I really enjoy going to the train store there. They have lots of stock, the staff is friendly, and every time I have been there it has been busy. Today I got several detail parts and a B & O wagontop box car from fox valley. I really like the curved roof. The worst part of the trip was the ridiculous amount of traffic from Lakeland to Tampa in both directions, but at least we missed rush hour. We are about equal distances between McDill AFB and Patrick AFB, but when we go it's almost always to Patrick because getting there has much less traffic.

Terry and David- Thank you for your suggestions. I will try them out within the next week.:D

Bob- Sorry I'm late but I hope you had a great birthday.

My favorite groups are Led Zeppelin, Pink Floyd, and ELO, but I like all kinds of music.

I hope everyone has a good night.
