Good Morning Everyone. A very pleasant 68° and clear skies in the neighborhood this morning, after a high temperature of only 90° yesterday. Supposed to be in the lower 60's tomorrow at this time. Good Morning Flo, let me try a couple of breakfast burritos today, ham, egg, potato and cheese.
Today I take my wife to some cardiovascular place for some kind of pre-op test and blood matching. Tomorrow is a 3-4 hour affair beginning at the hospital and concluding at the surgeon's office for the final prep before the surgery Monday. While I don't really need to be there today, I'm going because I need a trip to Home Depot just around the corner, in addition to the moral support. Tomorrow is a different story as I have to acquaint myself with the "do's and do not's" and the at home rehab.
Thanks for the comments and likes on yesterday's progress pictures;
Dave, Jerome, Johnny, Sherrel, Patrick, Chet, Garry.
Most of yesterday was spent on household tasks and yardwork. I was able to make a little bit of progress on the Ironworks. Hit a minor obstacle. There is no support for the roof on one end other than attaching it directly to the wall.
So I had to fabricate a support from some scrap .060" styrene and attach it first.
Pay no attention to the lines drawn on the wall, after measuring and plotting, the support is actually correct. This is where I am at while the Walther's Goo has a chance to set up overnight.
Johnny - Thanks for sending the cool front this way.
Chet - Thanks. I am hoping to put the structure over between the fertilizer distributor that I posted last month, and the existing flour mill that's near the farms posted last week. The flour mill still needs some additional piping and scenery so development between the fertilizer facility and farms seems likely to be the next project. Love the Impala, I learned to drive in it's cheaper sibling, a '59 Biscayne.
Patrick - Your garden project is far more than I would attempt at this time of year. Maybe spread out over a week of early mornings though.
Sherrel - Give Kate my best wishes on her leg. Shots didn't work for Arlene, thus the knee replacement, first of two.
Garry - Yea! 1200 miles isn't a one day trip by any means. It isn't flying that gives me fits, it's airports. Thanks for the comment regarding the ironworks.
Terry - Lionel stuff is very loud. My Dad's biennial Christmas display where he had eight Lionel trains running at once was too loud to hold a normal conversation in the room. Those two ZW transformers running at full power sent the electric meter spinning as well.
All of these posts about auto accidents has me spooked now!
Otherwise everybody have a great day.
