Good morning folks
It is a bright and sunny 67 heading up to 79.
The wife’s surgery went well with no issues as of yet. She is on light duty for a few days but no real restrictions. She had to be at the hospital at 5:45 AM which meant we had an easy drive to Paoli. She went into surgery around 7:30 and was done by 8:45. She spent a short time in recovery and we were home by 11 AM.
I installed a couple of plant hangers on the pergola on the front patio. While doing so I discovered a wasp nest in one of the crevices of the pergola. I will need to take care that before it becomes a problem. Just as I was finishing the second hanger, I heard a loud rumble. Turned around and saw a black sky approaching. We had a short thunderstorm with heavy rain and two bouts of hail.
I replaced the couplers and added screws to the coupler pockets on 5 more Athearn tank cars. Next, I am looking at changing the couplers on some Athearn reefers.
I need to make a pharmacy run on the way home this afternoon. Other than that nothing really planned for the evening.
I hope everybody has a good day.
