Same Ol' Buzzard
Good Morning All. 40° and clear in this part of the world this morning. A beautiful day in store for today and tomorrow, high in the 68°-75° range, sunshine and little to no wind. Yesterday wasn't bad, although a bit cooler. Spent yesterday morning getting new hearing aids. The pick-up microphone in one of the old ones failed about three weeks ago. I thought that it was an earwax build-up at first and applied drops; then I realized that I was hearing all of the device generated electronic noises just fine. Took it to be repaired, but Costco (where I got them from) no longer could get parts for their five year old models. They offered to sell me a new pair, but first I would have to set up an appointment three weeks from then, re-purchase my expired Costco membership, and they would no longer accept my American Express card. OK, since I originally got them, Sam's Club opened a store 20 miles closer to me and I already had a membership there. Walked in without an appointment and the audiologist worked me in right away. Now I can hear out of both ears again. In the five years since I originally got them, my hearing had deteriorated a bit (which I knew) from a 43% loss to a 45% loss. At that rate, I have another 125 years to go before I am completely deaf!
Ham, grits and sunny side-up eggs today Francine. Throw in a piece of French Toast to mop things up with.
Thanks for the likes and comments regarding my rehab project; Jerome, Sherrel, Clint, Chad, Phil, Lee, Chet, Curt, Tom.
Here's the results. Besides cleaning, fixing the drooping sign and reinstalling the handrail, I added a few more pedestrians.
Around back, I added a trashcan.
Here it is back in the lineup.
The rest of the block doesn't need as much work.
Also while out in the train shed yesterday, I took a shot of the additional detailing that I did on the old barn. As I had posted before, I was working on some doors over on the workbench to add. What do you think of the results?

Everybody have a great day and a wonderful weekend.

Clever response.Willie -- I used to tell the folks who were on their first airplane flight:
Not to worry, folks ... we have never left one up there yet!
Everybody have a great day and a wonderful weekend.
