The last frozen pizza I had was from a company called “Red Baron” that I never bought from before.
I should have known better than to get pizza named after an enemy pilot. It was terrible, and went into the trash.
It is still morning time for me. Please join me for a cold glass of Orange Juice.

Did you forget the vodka?
Absolutely Not!!!
What certain part of absolutely did you not completely understand[(-D][(-D][(-D] My Friend Maxman? [Y]

A pin vice is not the only essential tool.
A screw driver also comes in handy.
Phillips[(-D][(-D][(-D]
I do understand that one and that’s why the second original screwdriver named the drink[(-D]
But as I do recall the second original screwdriver left a way worst hangover then the absolute one[(-D]

Well I have spent the best part of the day in the kitchen cooking this, that and t’other.
Now it is [dinner] English fish and chips in wraps with mushy peas and tartare sauce; all home made.
Home made Sherry Trifle to follow.

David, I had to look up what an English trifle was. That was a term I’m not familiar with.
Since the diner went through Pueblo, Colorado, it was close to a pretty neat place – the Royal Gorge. I arrived there too late in the day to ride the train, but walked around the area. It’s something to see, and if you haven’t been there, it’s worth the trip.
To catch up questions, yes Bear, the 172 has the 180hp upgraded engine. The radar is an app along with the navigation system but I can do both screens at once. Only issue is some of the bigs don’t show up on the screen so in the vicinity of the city sometimes we will look over as a 737 or similar comes out of nowhere. I think the last software upgrade just about put paid to that problem though.
CN Charlie - F-40 Motorsports is on the other side of the Connecticut River from us, about 40 miles or so. Mr. Carini is quite the celebrity locally. One of our truck drivers (and a very good racer in his own right) could pass for his twin brother. Of course when we needed to send an AC Bristol there for transport to France we sent Will much to the confusion of the office staff at F-40. [;)]
48 degrees in North Dakota… I wonder how they are doing in NYC
32F with s**w showers
Wait a minute … we’re 600 miles south of you and our temp is 30°.
I don’t like this situation at all.
Baa Baa Black Sheep, Pappy Boington wrote an autobiogaphy. He was a scoundrel and a drunk, but it is interesting reading.
My uncle was a tail gunner in a B25? According to my mother, who was not firmly planted in the truth, he got shot out of the tail and survived, in Burma. I never asked him about it.
In December 2014 I had my aortic valve replaced followed by enough complications that I never thought I would see 2016. Today, for the first time since, I went skiing in VA. I only lasted 2 hours but it was a victory.
I have no explanation for why my head looks photoshopped on to the body.
Hello Railfans!
Top of the day to you all! Got a bit of catching up to do so lets get started.
First, to much suprise it snowed all last night. ALL night. We got a whopping 1". And since that bright thing in the sky came out, most of that inch is gone. If a person didnt notice it was cold… youd think it was summertime around here! HUMBUG!!!
Ed) I wouldnt have minded if you took the month off, you did such a great job last month. But, glad ya did anyways, gives us all something good to look forward this month.
However, i hope we dont run into too many scenes like the Tennessee Pass shot where someones “goo” let go and their latex boulder slid down the hill. Keep up the excellent work!
Some of the Rio Grande shots you posted I had to look twice - they look like models shot outside. The “is it real” shot does have me looking hard for the “give-away”. I suspect foul play! [:-^]
Bear) I thoroughly enjoyed the latest post on the F4U. I certainly have NO problem listening to those all day long. Especially since all the “original” writers of those stories are passing away. Once their gone, those storys will be too.
Stuff like replacing wing parts with “borrowed” parts. Just things the “History Channel” etc leave out all the time for the sake of making room for a commercial. I couldnt imagine what it would be like to read a flight log from a fighter pilot. Or Bombardier for that matter.
As stated, there are alot of “American” stories, so it is refreshing to hear a British aspect, or yes even a Kiwi aspect of the F4U’s marvelous journey into history. The Corsair is the perfect example of man’s machine, and in the hands of a skilled pilot can weave storys for centurys to come. Rabbit on my friend, rabbit on!
John) Nice shots of the Royal Gorge. Thats a very strange EMD unit wouldn
Hey, Douglas. I wondered if anyone was going to mention those last two shots.
They are both Mike Danneman’s N scale layout!

That is an amazing bit of realism, especially the snow scenes!

Good evening …
Henry … That is fantastic you have recovered from the valve replacement, and now you can ski again. [bow] Congratualtions !
Ed … Thanks for posting photos and the link to Mike D’s F;ickr pictures of his N-scale D&RGW layout. Very impressive !
John York 1. … It has been many years, but I recall seeing the Royal Gorge and being on the supension bridge very high over the canyon. I remember also riding in a cable car over the canyon. Not the place for people who fear hights.
Here is an SD9 assisting a Burlington E5 and E7 between Denver and Colorado Springs.
Everybody: … Have a nice evening.
Hi all,
I’d like pancakes, scrambled eggs, bacon and sausage please. My family always has sausage on Groundhog Day as it’s ground hog. Har-har-har.
Henry I like the pics of your ski-trip. Glad you’re getting to go and enjoy skiing again. The one and only time I went skiing is a place in the Shenandoah Valley when I was a student at Lord Fairfax Comm. College, a place I’m sure you’ve heard of, Massanutten?
I worked today to help out my coworker who couldn’t get in to work and had to be home with her kid. In exchange, she’s working my weekend shift this Sunday. I’ll take that. I’m going hiking with a friend I’ve known since college this Saturday which I’m looking forward too. We were going to have a state inspection but that’s going to be delayed which no one is unhappy about.
I managed to crack my right-hand taillight on a tree while trying to get out of a parking space today which I’m not thrilled about. I can replace it, but it’s always nice not to have to do that ha-ha. Ordering one online tonight.
I worked on a couple freight cars, and posted pics in a couple threads on here. I’ll get back to work on the models after I post my message on here.
Alvie
Henry: You look to me like a happy guy in really great shape having a really great time.
Have fun, and be safe.

The guest bedroom is getting closer to being a guest bedroom!
Hanging doors is a lot faster now that I have a laser lever.
I spent today installing trimwork around the doors. This is the first pocket door I have ever installed, and it was an additional challenge because the opening is flush with another wall.
Operation of the pocket door is good, and all the trimwork went in OK, once I figured out what I was doing.
One trim piece needs to be removable so the door hardware can be accessed. I used #8 wood screws to hold this one piece in place.
Now I need to finish the shelves, put in the floor trim, and finish the remainder of the painting. Then this room will be done!
The World Is A Beautiful Place.

Good Evening,
Douglas, my father was a Bombadier or Bomb Aimer as the RCAF caĺled them. He flew in a Halifax( a 4 engine bomber). He was also alternate navigator and tail gunner plus co-pilot on take off and landing as they only flew with a pilot. He only talked about the close calls after he had a stroke. I have his flight log but it doesn’t say much. Some trips were 7 hours mostly at night.
I agree most frozen pizzas are terrible except for Giuseppe by Dr. Oetkre. Not sure if they are available in the U.S. Have to add cheese though,
Time to hit the hay.
