Good Morning All. Partly cloudy and 38° here. Won't get above 50° for the next two days. Rain which was not in the forecast two hours ago, is now in, maybe because there seems to be some showing up on the radar all around. Small cells that may not even be hitting the ground.
Well the trip to Memphis has been postponed for two weeks as two of my cousins (late Aunt's children) cannot get there this weekend and the church is booked for the next one. Found out yesterday morning so we had time to cancel the reservations and re-book. What a hassle, although being honors members we didn't have to pay a cancellation fee.
Grocery store trek went as planned yesterday, nothing eventful. Prices stable and I am beginning to know where everything is now that they are done with re-arranging the parts of the store that I use. They're not done, but the parts that are remaining are areas that I don't use anyway, like household goods, hygiene items, (both from Dollar General for me), bottled water, energy drinks, pet food, and the promotional aisles. Gasoline citywide has drastically come down to $2.79/gallon, even at the corporate owned Exxon type stations.
Out in the train shed yesterday, I put another Logan Valley structure on the workbench, this one is Augie's Ag Sales.
Chet only finished part of this structure because of the viewing angle on his layout didn't require it, and as he has posted before, he hates painting windows.
So I started by finishing off the back and side windows. I was able to match the paint exactly.
Some light touch up is still needed now that I look at all too revealing photos! I also added a foundation and a sidewalk out front.
Since I plan to add figures and details like grain sacks, I extended the sidewalk inside to place them on.
I even got as far as painting the sidewalk.
Today is adding some roof details like plumbing vent pipes and an access hatch, along with the interior stuff and figures on the sidewalk.
Troy - Some rather colorful cars that you got. Now to get the layout rebuilt.
Todd -
Yup, except for fish and NY style sausage; almost everything white has carbs ... bread, pasta, tortilla's, rice ... etc
Try some Cauliflower. It's white with no carbs. We mash it like potatoes, steam it, make casseroles, roast it and eat it raw in several ways.
Tom O - Your Jesus Christ Superstar adventure reminds me of a Doors concert that I attended in 1970 or early '71. Surprised that I can still remember it! The music was rather good, but Jim Morrison was so drunk that he couldn't remember half of the words and kept stumbling to his knees to the point that the roadies had to help him up. He stacked 18 empty beer cans, that he consumed during the performance[?], up on the front of the stage during the show before crashing through them into the orchestra pit for a finale. I did get my money back after waiting in line for 45 minutes. Back then, concert tickets were just $2.50.
Everyone have a great day and an awesome weekend.
