I did manage to get some stuff done today...
I renewed my drivers license, and my cars tags. I met with my attorney. I went grocery shopping. I went to physical therapy. I went to the post office.
I did do all of those things, but I also managed to finish the mortar lines on the roundhouse walls, and get a couple of the walls assembled. I also took some time and tore down the Mikado to the frame and valve gear. I have found where it is binding. I will have to take the gear off and do some filing on the piston guides. It would seem that when I attached the bulkhead(?) at the end of the guides, they bent in towards the center. I will do some filing on the bulkhead and the guides and add some lubricant. Then, after putting it back together, I will try the glass test. We will see what happens.

Don't follow me, I'm lost too.
