    Wow the dog days of summer are here for the first time. Let me tell you I sure and the heck don’t miss all this high heat with high humidity. Yesterday finally caught up to me and I paid for over working. For some reason this type of weather just nails me with my asthma. I’m one of those that do...

    Saying farwell

    I come on late tonight because I had a good time at the tractor pulls then I see this Steve. The worst part is I can't even find your address from when you bought the Beep. I don't even know what to say or where to start. This hit me like a ton of bricks and I still can't figure out one thing...

    Water, water every where but none in the water lines. At one time our local fire company held the honor of never having a structure fire loss. Well that went up in smoke tonight. We have been blessed with more rain fall than I can remember of the past four weeks. Including todays rain we have...

    What an interesting idea. See you can do large things in a small layout. Nice Job!

    Thanks I spent a few hours late last night getting those in. I was happy that I got them to work. Space is only limited by your imagination. I can never figure out those that think you can't have a lot of action in a small O gauge layout. I have a few more ideas for some more track so look for...

    Miami now what can I say about Miami? You do know it is really a third world nation that just happens to be located in the United States. Yeah I’m not a great fan of Miami I would rather be stranded in Immokalee. At least there is some great Boar hunting close by. Now that I think of it I never...

    I think you can tell that I’m out of my retirement since I have been too busy to drop by. The new job is cool and I even spent Tuesday on the Golf Course all day. Golf is one of those things I love but don’t do very well. The farm is back in shape and with all that rain it looks like...

    I was very happy to finally get home earlier today. The first thing I noticed were several downed trees and branches all over the place. It doesn’t appear that there was a tornado but the home weather station did record wind gusts up to 60 miles per hour. The rain gauge was setting at just over...

    Well the first series of phone calls and reports started about 8:30am and it ended with "We are going to the basement." This was a hard thing for me to hear since I am 3hours away from home. I don't have a clear picture of what took place in my small section of Somerset County but my family was...

    I made a mad dash to Barry's In E-town today since I found out they were open to 6 PM. It was worth the trip since they had the Lionel CN cylinder hopper I was looking for. I love the candy stripe paint scheme. In addition I bough some K-Line cars since they were 5 for $20. I even bought some...
