I agree we are responsible for our medical treatment. My medical knowledge comes from asking questions concerning the chronic conditions I suffer from. I want to understand better in the hope that I can improve my quality of life. I can't leave everything to doctors, I have to do my part.

That is even more reason for the rest of us who don't have severe reactions to the vaccine to stay up to date.

Afternoon All,
Spent several hours in the train room today. I started out by finishing placing the last 26 NBW's. After that dried, I decided I didn't like the way the brownish red looked on them so painted over them with Tamiya XF-69 NATO Gray which looks like weathered black when dry.
On the original (I'm using it as reference) There are only steel plates on the outside of where the legs meet the beam. On mine they are on both sides. The side bracing will also need steel plates and NBW's to be more realistic. I also cut out the footers (wood) and prepped them with gray spray paint.
Mac- Great photos but the Electrics are in rough shape. Not criticizing the RRMP. They have done tremendous restoration work.
Bill- Neat photo.
I hope everyone has a good day.

This evening's adult beverage is brought to you via Spain...
The "Remember the Maine, to hell with Spain" or something like that.
Captain Charles Sigsbee is a relative of mine. 2nd or 3rd cousin to my Grandmother. He was captain of the ill-fated ship. Took me forever to find his grave at Arlington. He's NOT buried at the Maine memorial on Sigsbee Drive.
So I had to make the cocktail when I discovered there was one, and it's based on rye whiskey
1.5 oz Rye
3/4 oz sweet vermouth
1/2 oz Cherry Herring.
Mix on ice, and strain into a chilled glass.
Yummy

What, me worry?
Evening all,
Didn't go after the granddaughter as her mom got off her project meeting earlier than expected and let us know before we left. So my afternoon opened up. I got caught on some of the other things around the house that I needed to do. I did mow the yard and pulled the buffalo grass out of the garden so it can't get ahead of me over the winter.
Also got the patio cleared and the chairs put in the storage shed. I also have the snowblower out of storage as well. Still need to get it fueled and started before I need it.
Laundry is also done ahead of schedule. Just have to go to work in the morning.
Have a good evening.

You're very welcome. I was very, very surprised and impressed with it. So impressed that I took 93 pictures there, plus a few that I deleted. I wasn't expecting anything approaching this magnitude and I am very glad that I went by. Even my wife was impressed, which is saying a lot for her and layouts! Please note that the while the museum is open 7 days a week, the train exhibit is only open on Saturdays from 10 to 3.

They are just now starting to restore some of the equipment that's sitting in the yard. Hopefully this extremely rare side rod powered electric (might be the only one of its kind on the continent) will soon be next. The "Old Rivets" first GG1 has been neglected for a long time also.

Very nice, looks like a great layout to run on!

Silly me, thinking I could fix it...The replacement, surprisingly, took several hours of work...(Maybe I lost my touch?), Nah! Similar to the old one, but made more cheaply, (noticeably). Had to lube the fasteners to get them to tighten up.Joe- Silly me, when I read that your latch was frozen, I thought from the cold!

What they did to the PRR steam collection, was grossly negligent, Same with the 4800, and the DD1...The Crusader Observation, next to the DD1, used to be inside...another priceless car built in 1937 by Budd for the Reading. First Eastern Streamliner the Crusader.

Covid shots - had #6 on 10/12, Also the 2023-2024 Flu shot for 65+...didn't feel well for almost two weeks.. had the RSV shot about a week ago, arm is still sore, and I'm coughing like I have a URI...Not Happy, but I decided to get them. Primarily so should I get sick like last year, I will be able to tell them their shots didn't work...They don't know how to respond to that...
Seriously, my priority is to avoid hospitals and illness this year, if I can help it.
Devils lost tonight, 4-1, in St. Louis, after beating Minnesota 5-3 last night. Caps sucked on the Island last night 3-0. Play Columbus tomorrow night.
