Turn your clocks back and reset your microwave clock before bed time. See you in eight hours.

Dodgers repeat as champs after unforgettable Game 7 thriller
A historic 11th-inning go-ahead homer by Will Smith. A heroic pitching effort from Yoshinobu Yamamoto on zero rest. A ninth inning fit for an action movie script. At the end of it all, L.A. was on top once again.Yoshi! Yoshi! Yoshi!

Good morning...I think the clock is slow. I don't feel tardy.
Coffee Flo in the big cup, please.
Got a few things to do outside in between letting paint dry on some models. Getting back into the swing on things and back where I left off with painting plastic to look like steel. One of the toughest colors to duplicate. I have 3 colors that I blend in stages (light coats) in order to get the effect I'm looking for.

Good morning Crew, do you know what time it is? The time on the clocks went back 1 hour this morning. . For most of you lucky ones the clocks handle themselves for us others some do, some don’t. In our household Terry used to love the sound of the tic-toc but as I write this I realize she can’t hear that annoying noise because it’s now background noise her hearing aids tune out! At least I don’t have to do the wind up clocks we had.
Badger hockey was a bit different yesterday versus Minnesota on Friday night. 14 seconds into the game the Badgers scored and then a Gopher clocked the goal scorer sending her to concussion protocol. 2 minutes and 20 seconds later the Badgers scored again. It was a good game with one of the most unprepared analysts I have heard on any type of game. Badgers 7 Gophers 2. Why was I watching and not there? Terry went with the granddaughter and it was sold out and even with connections that we didn’t push, we couldn’t get a ticket. The sad thing, the stands were about 10% empty. It was fine and Harper loved it. “Poppa, Those are girls playing, all of them” was her comment when I asked her if she had fun at the game.
The son and girlfriend made it to Vegas from Austin 3 hours late. Ground hold per controller shortages he told me was the announcement the plane captain made. He didn’t fly his own plane because the round trip tickets were only $120 each including all the fees. He said he can’t pull the aircraft out of the hanger for that. The daughter and SIL from here were only 1 hour late. The niece and hubby from LA had their flight cancelled so drove! The government shutdown is cause for flight safety. It’s why Terry and I were talked out of flying to Winnipeg on the 10/30 to watch the Black Hawks. They are staying at my brother’s place. The son texted after their dinner around 11:30pm that who ever said the fall of Vegas was occurring needed to come and visit this weekend. As packed as he’s ever see in the past 3 years
The grandson’s final soccer game of the Fall season yesterday morning at 8:30 about 12 miles away normally but the detour added 6 miles was a 1-0 win and played in absolutely miserable 36f degrees with drizzle from start to end. I was a popsicle after! His hockey game in Milwaukee at 5 he went with his best buds family. He also overnighted there. She’s the assistant AD for the Badgers who couldn’t get an extra ticket for the Badger Women hockey. His team played well, 6-1. Me and 3 grand dads are invited to the grandson’s house to race against our grandkids and his best friend whose gd/parents have passed. No Packer game this afternoon and their hockey game is at 10am. So yeah, we can race. His parents ok’d it and even were arranging food when one of the granddads said he will handle the food. He owns the local Culver’s so our orders are in and will be delivered to the house.
I will not attend Trainfest today in downtown Milwaukee for the 2nd year in a row. I’ve hear negatives about it from those who went from this area yesterday. The NMRA has taken over running it but until I hear from trusted sources I won’t say anymore. I will go to the Mad City show in February in Madison with most of the same layouts and sellers but minus the big name manufacturers.
Enjoy the day

Good morning all. A chilly 34°F here, and I looked but I didn't see any frost. We are under a Freeze Warning until 0800. Don't know where the frost is, it's cold enough.
I might work on that locomotive today. Undecided yet.
Have a great All Souls Day!

Well, howdy there internet people, and those still in another timey-whiney, wibbley-wobbley dimension.
It's Troll again.
Out in vegas. We didn't have controller delays getting here but we did have a plane in the hangar for repairs. Ended up about an hour late after everything. Still, got picked up by our friends and headed out to dinner of prime rib.
Yes, I like my meat less pink. Make sure it's not going to moo.
We helped them celebrate their 45th anniversary with the dinner.
In other news, I'll be author conferencing tomorrow. Going to start by working the trade show booth for one of the networking organizations. Two hours of glad handing and chatting with authors.
