HE’S ALIVE!!!
HANG IN THERE, BRENTMEISTER. BTW…One of us is going to have accompany you when you travel by air to carry your medical records and explain how the only area of your body not containing metal plates, screws, and rods is your head…because that was hard enough to withstand all you threw at it. [;)]

Morning all. Wow, it is May already! I feel real bad this morning. We are all under the weather. Glad it is Saturday, but I have some things I absolutely must get to. The grass needs to be cut and trees need to be planted. Also have some crates I have to build from old shipping flats. These will be a prop for the next week’s filming.
Thanks RT for getting it going with Lucy and da Chief out of range. With any luck, if I feel half way OK when done with the honey do list, I will get some train time in. Falling way behind in the hobby I love.
Wife is working one of her two days per month today. She is on the mend from this mess, so I hope that she is having a good day. Remember, if Momma ain’t happy, ain’t nobody happy! May order some delivery for tonight as I just am not feeling like cooking…or doing anything right now.
God BLess,
dennis
Good Morning
Overcast but suppose to clear.
7AM t/storm woke us up but wasn’t violent. Not sure about today yet…S.J.
Aloha all. Back from 8 am soccer game. Brutus, it was very windy all day, then ‘your’ storm came through, not too bad though the sirens went off in the next town. Rich, condolences for your bride’s sudden unemployment. Good friend just finished 2 months of interviews with one position and didn’t get it. Sigh. Jack, Tiffin to home and back was just about 700ish miles. 6 hours there, half-hour packing and nearly 8 hours home. We hit traffic by Sox park and went 1.7 miles to the circle n an hour and a half. Just traffic. Ugh, especially at the end of the day. 'Course I did all the driving (enjoy that) but the bride is the one exhausted - go figure. Grass looks terrible, so I’m going to wake the teen boy to cut it. Then wake the teen girl to get up and look for work.
[:)]morning boys, thanks rt. for standing in for the chief. pat the german store gigi goes to sells sweet iced tea now. we buy it and drink it all the time. no grits though. well cant be 100 percent.
Don’t know what your talking about pat mines says 5 years and sweet tea why doesn’t yours?[%-)][8D]
A bit of humor …
Two drunks were walking down a New York City street when one fell down the subway steps. When he got back up top he asked his drinking partner, "…boy did you ever get to see that guy’s train set in the basement ? "
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
A man and a woman, who had never met before, found themselves assigned to the same sleeping room on a transcontinental train. Although initially embarrassed and uneasy over sharing a room, the two are tired and fall asleep quickly – he in the upper bunk and she in the lower. At 2:00 a.m., he leans over and gently wakes the woman, saying, " I’m sorry to bother you, but would you be willing to reach into the closet to get me a second blanket? I’m awfully cold."
" I have a better idea," she replies. “Just for tonight, let’s pretend that we’re married.” “Wow! That’s a great idea!!” he exclaims.
“Good,” she replies. “Get your own da** blanket.”
Mornin’/Afternoon All.
Great day at the museum yesterday, all went well although just prior to closing a switch controller decided to malfunction and fry the switch motor. No biggy, just have to work it manually for now.
Did a good deed yesterday, heard a knock at the backdoor and this “homeless” guy was trying to work his way back to Texas. We brought him in and asked him to join us for lunch.
Technically speaking he was homeless, having already checked out of his hotel and killing some time prior to his flight back to “Big D”. After all that chili I hope there weren’t any flight delays. [X-)] [:I]
Roy, the visit was great. Maybe when the WGH show comes back here you will get the assignment for their layout electronics work. Unfortunately everyone spent so much time talking trains I don’t think he got to see any of the two rail stuff in operation.
Look forward to your next trip.
Later all, got some more clean-up to do in the trainroom/toybox.
Happy May
What scale was that train in the basement, it did have two rails [swg]
May God bless
Jim
RT - See, I can change my subject to! [:-^][swg]

Stay right where you are, mister. [;)] Maybe even turn on the TV.
Evening All
Yes Brent for one man you’ve done enough damage. Overcast most of the day, went to 74. T/storms expected again before morning. Looks like these might get nasty. Well I goofed off today but did called our oldest grandson and asked if he was packed yet, its his 18th birthday, told him it was time to move on. He is the one that made those famous words “who gave me banilla I wanted chocolate”. I will have banilla ready for the thingy crew…S.J.
Good afternoon everyone. Really feeling bad now. Looks like Pizza tonight as I can’t cook. Wife is going to be angry when she sees the house. Kids were playing with pillows and furniture while I was passed out on the couch.
Brent, Doug is right, you had better stay clear! Hope you are well on the mend. Sorry to hear about Susie Q.
Doug da Grump, that was so kind of you to take in a homeless person so that they could have a meal and entertainment while passing through. Sounds like you both had some fun. I hope to get to San Diego again sometime and take in the museum.
I hope that each of you has a great weekend.
Dennis
