Cold at church yesterday, because pastor Father John is on vacation, and he is also the maintenance man.

Laundry done. The last of the summer shirts were put away in the upstairs closet and the last of the winter long-sleeve shirts came downstairs.

Tomorrow I burn this year's worth of downed branches, sticks, and twigs from my walnut and maple trees. It's not nearly as big of a pile as last year. I might wait on this until Friday too when it will be a little warmer in the evening for a short bon fire.

Dinner in an hour and more bar-b-q chicken on tap with mashed potatoes and Grand biscuits.

A very mild afternoon here at 71°F but has started to slowly fall already.

Cook, gardener, housekeeper, comforter of souls; he wears many hats. Some of the parishioners occasionally assist or bring by suppers to share.

I miss spoke about the last train over the Put Division. There was one more. I was the 4pm to 12am hostlers at the time. We only had 2 RS3's in the yard, one for the Chatham switcher and one for the night 8pm to 8am yard switcher. The yard switcher crew showed up and wondered where their engine was located. It was usually on one of the ready tracks. The engine house foreman said it's on track 50, but it wasn't there, it was gone and no one knew where or why. No one had a clue? The next day it was spotted in Carmel 5 miles away idling on the abandoned main line. Someone stole the engine out of the yard and ran it over to Carmel, NY. The engines at that time were in the yard running with the reverser lever left out in the cab somewhere, someone had to know enough to put that in. They did an investigation which came up empty. It had to be stolen during the day. It wasn't my job to keep track of what engines were available for service. I just move them to be the fueled, sanded and put away. I think they took up some track right after that to make sure it didn't happen again. Swal
