Same Ol' Buzzard
Good Morning All. 53° and clear right now, going up to 82° later today. Supposed to rain again tonight and tomorrow. The garden is looking good after Saturday's rain and the weeds haven't overtaken it yet. I did spend some time installing many of the tomato cages before the plants get too unmanageable. "Guess Who's Coming to Dinner?" Well yesterday it was Sherrel and Kate Weems from the left coast, along with the doggies, on their cross-country adventure. Spent several hours with them, both in the train shed and at a local Italian restaurant. Wonderful to meet them in person. Sherrel is not the crusty old curmudgeon that we think he is! While they were more than welcome to park overnight in the driveway, they decided to use the remaining daylight to make a few more miles instead. Sorry everyone, I did not pick up the camera, but Kate might share some of the pictures that she took.
Earlier in the day out in the train shed, I did get a chance to add some more scenery materials to parts of the layout. Now that the benchwork is done, I have no excuse to not do more much needed scenery.
Greg - On my Atlas tower, I mounted the light in the ceiling. I ran the wires up in line with the chimney so they appear to be a continuation downward of the chimney (three foot rule).
I also have a collection of new ink cartridges that I can no longer use for the same reason. I think that printers are designed to fail when they detect a new cartridge, and I always purchase more than one whenever I need them.
Chet - Kinda looks like my yard after February's ice storm. Got more than a week's worth of firewood as a result.
Terry - I have not noticed that issue, but it may be happening. Are you using "What's New" or "New Posts" as your starting point? I'll have to pay attention when I log on later today.
Everybody have a great day.
