Greetings, gang.
Sunny and downright HOT here in the remote reaches of northern Iowa this evening. Right now it's 90 degrees after a daytime high of 97.
Today I went to the gym for a swim and just after the half mile mark I felt a twinge in my back. Time to call it quits for the day. This afternoon I disassembled an Athearn caboose for repainting. Mainly I wanted the window glazing out because I've never had much luck taping over them. That's done and the primer coat is applied. I'm still debating whether to shave off the cast on grab irons and replace with my own. I've done it before and it's not that hard. I'm just getting lazy in my old age.
All stay safe.
Tom
