Good evening folks
We are looking at rainy holiday weekend which means we won’t be doing much outside. I may try to clean the fishpond filter between storms. We don’t have much planned for the weekend, never do for Memorial Day weekend. The weather always seems crappy around here. We will probably make a run to the grocery store and I’m not sure where else if any.
My holiday weekend will end at 2 AM Monday night as I have to go and complete the daily traffic construction sign inspections. I have to visit six PA Turnpike Interchanges. Since it is the middle of the night the inspection will take two and a half hours instead of the normal four to five with traffic. The goal is to be home before 5 AM and the morning rush. I will go to bed because I am working Tuesday night 5 PM to 5 AM as we are switching stages at the Norristown Interchange.
I have not seen any Memorial Day Poppies in decades it seems. Today on the way home from work I stopped at the Acme grocery store in Manoa and there were two veterans selling them. I bought one on the way out.
I plan on running trains. I finished the break-in run for my BLI B&O Consolidation. Now it is time to run it with cars behind it. I have some rolling stock I need to finish inventorying. I hope to get back to assembling the Trade Tower kit. I also have some Accurail cars to renumber. I love their renumbering decals.
Charlie thanks for the update. Contact me on Facebook and I can send you a friend suggestion for Ed. He is on my friend list and I see his posts there but he has not talked to me in a long time.
I hope everybody has a good evening.
