Evolution : I've got to get away from this PC and go do something.....

This RR aint gonna build itself, I’ve got to stop thinking, planning, imagining, reading, TYPING!! and go get something done.

Have fun & be safe,
Karl.

I wi***hat I had a Model Railroad.

I thought that it was your plan for this weekend, anyway? What went wrong?

I know how you feel Karl, now I have trains running, what do I do next? So far order more rolling stock… on the computer!!!

That was my plan, but then I took your advice, and took it easy, cool and paced myself, maybe a little too much. [banghead]

Thats the last time I take any advice from you,[sigh] sheesh, the weekends almost gone and I aint done nothin’ but paced myself, took it cool and typed. Oh well. More time wasted while I take a coffee break and reply to you my friend. Its a one man conspiracy against me !!

([:D][:D] of course the previous paragraph is ALL tongue in cheek, sarcastic humour and meant in fun ( just to clarify as my humour is often/usually/ pretty much always missunderstood).[:D][:D])

I did take your advice though, and although I worked through Thurs night, I paced myself last night and got to bed around 3:30am, So you see I do appreciate and take your advice (kinda) but you were right, my afterburners are still burnin and that pent up energy is still high so I’m back to the layout, catch you later buddy. Progress has been made.

Have fun & be safe,
Karl.

Wow, 0330 hrs? You musta had mid-air refueling at that pace!

Okay, I get it. You were taking my advice and taking a break. All good stuff. I know what it is like when you get a good head of steam!! Hard to stop.

I sure like that pic of the rushes and ferns. Yummy!

OUCH!! The truth hurts don’t it?
I know exactly what you mean, and yes I am GUILTY [V] of the same. But the pictures at the bottom of your post show a HUGE amount of potential, if we can only get away from our PCs.

Keep trying, it’s the only way to succeed!! [:D][:D][:D]

Thanks Crandell, it sure did feel good to have a weekend of RR’ing. Guess I’d better get to work after this coffee to earn some $$'s, thanks for the advice and support, much appreciated.

Karl.

That’s a GREAT pic!!! The whole point of these forums is to see somthing new, turn off your computer, get off your but, and go to your train room and try it![:D] I’ve tried it. It Really works!!!

Karl, any time I can be of service to you, let me know. If my words have meaning and offer encouragement, I have had a good day.

It makes my day to hear that you had a super weekend, too.
[:)]

If that last group of photos is any indication, Karl, you’ve DONE something! And beautifully, too. So I wouldn’t worry about hanging around the PC for a while–hey, rest on your laurels for a day or so, okay?
BTW, here’s as good a close-up as I can get on those Poplar/Aspen trees we were talking about. Hope it helps.

Aggro says this plant grows wild in his neighborhood. I think that the ‘leaves’ have been dyed, not spray-painted. The trunk seems to be lightly washed with a white paint, maybe Polyscale.
