Let's keep in touch leading up to it! It would be great to meet you in person there and the other fellas! I will be going on Saturday and will be there from open to close. I usually grab dinner before heading back home after the show as well.
Using 1/16" chartpak tape is a great idea! I will have to get a roll off Amazon.....
I spent all morning shovelling snow on my property and my old neighbours. Now, I'm going to have a nap. I'll likely be shovelling again tonight.
I was conned into the between the teeth cleaners until I realised it was wearing my gums away so stopped, I bought a small set o f dental instruments and clean off my own plaque, the very back teeth are hard to reach, but I wouldn’t give you a honest penny for a dentist,
they are having fun with him so I am staying zipped.
Not for nothing, dentistry has become a racket. The price of a filling or extraction is way out of line. I have to have a broken tooth extracted...Cash, and no one wants to do it, unless I schedule a cleaning and examination first...Hell the only treatment plan I will consider is pull the remaining teeth and go to full dentures. Implants are nice if you live that long, but....I was hoping that they would make Dental care part of Medicare,but the Dental Lobby made sure that idea was banished.
Today's snow storm fizzled, with barely a dusting on unpaved surfaces. South of here, it was a different story, but if the rest of this seasons snows are like this, I'll not complain.
Went to the local tire place, to have a slow leak fixed, and an oil change. Appointment was for 10 AM, car finally went inside at 11:40 AM, and out at 12:20PM...Hope they don't send me a survey, I might answer it...
it's not like I have that much to do, but I feel like I wasted the morning...
Justin: Sorry for your loss. Take your time planning your next layout. I wouldn't use any of the old bench work...I learned my lesson a while ago...
I lost just my dad a couple of years ago and was gutted, 3 members is heartbreaking,if you are wanting advice on anything why not post here and see if any of us has a sensible answer.
My ;redo all advice to anyones is
to avoid debt,
lI’ve within your means however humble,
if possible put aside cash each month to allow you to
buy a new car as and when,
or to pay off mortgage earlier,
keep a little for rain days and breakdowns,
and to avoid emergency loans which rip you off
watch the internet for plumbing,basic electrician, to save money]
grow as much of your own food as you can,
ratty Potatoes grow a potato plant,
consider vitamins d3 and k2 and some zinc - do not overdose! On them.
fd time to relax and enjoy yourself
and if lucky enough to have a other half and kids
spend quality time with them]
spend quality time by yourself
never throw anything without checking if you can sell it on evil bay or similar.

My son who is 36 sort wishes instead of the implants he had gone with dentures. He keeps putting off the next 2 implants even though he has found a different dentist.

Thanks Guy. I made my tie piles 5x5 and just ordered 1/32” and 1/16” chartpak tape for banding. The pin stripping I have will be used as 3“ tie downs for the whole load on a flat car.

James if I go I'm meeting my friends there because they live in Hyde Park, NY. I'll email you my phone number and we can talk about it when it gets close to going. My friend's whole life revolves around golf and model railroading. I revolve around golf, model railroading and the horses. You know about the horses because you use to hot walk them. We'll see what happens. George

I was out in the *bush* over yr end wkend. 11 pages in 2 1/2 days.! I just yest heard a story of 2 ladies splittin wood with one of those 2-4 ton electric splitters. Apparently you are not to put hands or fingers betwixt the *Maul* & the end of the wood being split. Heard it entails a trip to Dr. to see if pinkie end can be reattached or if whole digit has to come off. Apparently it is option 2. Heard the Doc was amazed it wasnt the whole hand. (which is possible, but should never be probable) why hand is in that position & why control operator doesnt see what could be happpening, I dont' understand.

I can attest to the fact you don't need you're 'pinkie' to function. It is a useful digit, if one can hang onto it, though. My right pinkie was digested by a large dog some years back, and my left always acts up, as if it misses the right.

I was once conned into a local anaesthetic for a filling, yes seems rediculous now,but hey ho, finding my bra done up incorrectly wised me up fast! I was young twenties too embarrassed to tell parents, too stupid to not sue,anyway I avoid dentist like the plaque afoer a second incident where a cleaning was making my mouth bleed a LoT and when I complained she called me a baby, I got up and left mid way refused to pay, and I am now in my 6th decade just and have all my teeth barring two wisdom removed,and one filling - another dentist said he was surprised about that filling! I have a check up if in pain,ignore most of what they say I should do,and yet I have very very healthy teeth I use toothpaste with the repair items and do as many of the number as possible, when going out under Covid I also use alcoholic mouth wash as it kills germs

Yep. You were smarter than a fish.I can assure you that fishing is more than a hobby for me. I strive to eat organic and not store bought meat but I love the comment it's hilarious
Here's a salmon that got fileted and smoked ......then eaten. 25 lbs of meat after fileted. It weighed 38lbs caught on a 10x fly rod and took me 20 minutes or so to net it.

Good Afternoon Everyone in Model Railroad Land. Sunny and seasonal after the moderate snowfall over the weekend.
TomO: I really like your gondolas with the material for recycling. The gons were weathered perfectly with the rust tones. I especially like the last photo of the end shot of then gon!!!
Speaking of implants, Cathy had one installed for a front tooth after the dentist made a mistake and broke her tooth and tried to cover it up. The dentist refunded Cathy's money for the work and now she has a dentist that she trusts. I need a lot of dental work and rather face a man with a gun pointed at me than see a dentist. Implants will not be my route for a new mouth due to the expense and time. Dental work way over priced.
Got a call yesterday afternoon to meet a good friend from the cabin area and his friend at a local pub near our home. He was a best friend of my late cousin and now we are all good friends.
Justin: Welcome back and sorry about your losses.
Watched our favorite, Wisconsin's and the Country's Team, the Green Bay Packer wipe out the Vikings and looks like maybe will result n the Viking's coach to leave as well as I bet Cousins departure. If the Packers play at this level with the well rounded team that showed up last night then watch out Tampa Bay and Dallas. Such power running by Dillon and Jones!!!
Allen: Nice video of the action at the NAPM club in Milwaukee.
That's about all for now.....

I never heard or seen this railroad and I assume it's a upper mid-western short-line. A few of their cars would be a natural fit for my railroad. Need to check around for some rolling stock.
