Greetings, gang.
Another cool morning here in the remote reaches of northern Iowa. Right now the temp is 54 degrees with an expected high in the low 70s. Tomorrow is supposed to be the beginning of a warming trend.
My original plan was to leave tomorrow for Beatrice for the annual train show there. Right now that's all up in the air as our son's mother-in-law is seriously ill to the point where our son and his wife drove home from Texas yesterday. We are driving down to Ames today to visit with them. Right now is a critical point. It could go either way. Hopefully we'll know more today.
In other news we had a nice visit with some old friends last night. Went to dinner then came back here and watched the trains run until dark. Only plan for today other than a trip to Ames is a run to the grocery store.
All stay safe.
Tom
