And a fine good mornin to the gang. Grabbing some ph00 but no other goodies - - just crumbs and dirty dishes.

Nuther pretty day down this way, but two little windstorms messing around out there. That second one could be bad for us - - hope it decides the weather is nicer up further north.

Heidi, the blonde is improving - - - slowly. Been a good girl going to her therapy sessions and the shingles are slowly going away just leaving her skin feeling real funny - - she gets shocks when she touches her leg. Woooo woooo - - wonder what happens if I touch - - uuuppppsss, don't go there Bob. Probably get a black eye. Thanks for asking.

Not much happening down here and looks quiet with ya'll also. So, I'll wander along and go do some of my To Do list. Take care,

Bob

No chance of foreclosures here, just a big pain in my hiney.
Had to have a Nerve test done today,the Doc pulled out this long needle and I asked him what that was for,he said for you. He told me he wasn't given me any slack because he seen a few of my tattoos.He told me to suck it up because he was saving the best for last.He stuck that needle in my hand and started laughing when I told him that it hurt like you know what.My whole arm is throbbing like a toothache still.Cin''s mission is up in the air right now.

BTW,I launched out some goodies ,enjoy!

Evenin' all,

NW Houston hot and muggy. Been a while since I was able to slip in the breakroom. My computer is TU. So using someone computer in antother room, and han't had much time. Long boring story.

Heidi, the Lunch Laddy, Lord of the Lunch Room is doing OK. It gets noisy and busy when the screaming hungry crowd storms the lunch line. Work is 1.9 miles from the house. Not sure if I will stay at this school as I am a floater and can be sent anywhere in the district. You LEOs I am not a floater as you call a body in the river.

Wife also has a job close to the house. If she hits the lights it is a 2 minute drive. Easy going place. Lunch 1200 to 1300. Phones go on night and everyone goes to put on the feed bag. She like it.

Heidi, that locomotive pix. Is't that the railroad of Phobe Snow? Eire Lakawana?

Hope everone is getting on OK. 5erBob, thw wife doing better? And your friend.

Have a good un, and be safe out there.

Ofcmarc, sounds really painful. Been in alot of situtation like that before. Worst I had was getting a thumb stuck between and s-cam and roller in a set of truck brakes, or slamming my truck door on my thumb and having to unlock the truck to get my thumb out of it. Swelling and pain are down alot today, iced it last night and that helped alot.

Heidi, Thanks for your sympathy to my finger. The GF has been in a completely different mood now since she got her job offer, its good for both of us. Hopefully now we can start our lives together. Yeah those locos are pretty big up close, the one in your pic looks to be either an old E unit (6 axle) or and old F unit (4 axle)

Good day today, locomotive super hero sat on his butt and watched water drain for 8 hrs today. Filled a fuel tank up with water to look for leaks (engine was in a wreck) and 1800 gallons don't drain fast out of a 3/4 pipe that elbows up. Oh well, thats what they wanted done thats what they got today. Who know what tomorrow will bring. We have a 3 day weekend comming up so I'll be relaxing alot. The local USW union might be going on strike here, it shouldn't affect us too much even though we haul alot of steel. Truck pull sunday night at the county fair grounds, should be good.
Gonna put out some tea, coffee, ph00 and sweet tea for the guy/gals burning the midnight oil. Put some of the stuff the dragon keeps lock up into the coffee tonight for a little extra kick. Have a good friday everybody.

Sorry 'bout your arm Cin. I see it hasn't affected your launchin' tho!

Got some more done on my sawmill yesterday. There's a lotta parts to them things!

Coffee, sweet tea an' ph00 is ready. Donuts are relatively calm this mornin', so get 'em while they're docile.

Don't know about tea, but coffee's flowing. People need to quit trying to make up for a whole summer in one weekend. Getting tired of all the calls already. Have fun but don't hurt yourselves and keep your eyes peeled for the goofs that aren't paying attention.

Speaking of trains, just found out the Pere Marquette 1225 (Polar Express fame) isn't gonna make the color tour to Cadillac this fall. Sounds like they weren't selling a lot of tickets, so they're substituting a diesel for a cheaper fare. I was hopeing to have the 8N done and take it into town for a picture next to it. Also would like to get my dad's 49 Olds 88 in for a group shot sometime. That train probably hauled the Olds parts to the plant. It's a Berkshire, which was used specifically to haul auto-cars by the Pere Marquette Rail Road. Maybe the tractor too?
