Good evening folks

It is currently 38. Supposedly our high was 41. We did not have a lot of wind but what we had sure made things feel a lot colder.

The recent high winds we have been having, including Friday and Saturday have now claimed three things. They are the backyard gazebo, a piece of flashing from the highest point on the house, and a downspout.

We did some running on Saturday to Kohl’s and Stapels to make returns for Amazon and Ortho Feet. We began putting up the St. Patrick Day decorations. I did some laundry. Sunday was more laundry and we finished the decorations. We pulled the couch away from the way to rescue numerous dog and cat toys along with corralling several dust bunnies.

I started to run some trains but then issues began. After several hours of troubleshooting why the locos were suddenly stalling at certain location I was finally able to determine it was a bad piece of track. Of course it was a piece I had recently ballasted. I pulled the piece out and replaced and the issue went away. I assembled an Athearn blue box pink Farnham covered hopper, and 10 Accurail steel reefers. My next structure project arrived.



I hope everybody has a good day.
