Greetings, gang.
Sunny and cool outside my window this morning. Right now its 43 after an overnight low of 36. Getting real close to having frost on the pumpkins. Another low 60s high is predicted for today.
Got my wife's car back from the repair shop and it's a pleasure to drive again. Also got the track fixed in the back yard and ran some trains. Worked really great. Then I decided to take the tool box to the basement - 30 second trip. Yep, you guessed it. The caboose and one log car derailed. Put them back on the track and the train ran flawlessly for another half hour. Put the trains away, got cleaned up, and went to dinner with some friends. As we were being seated I ran into some old friends from work. Had a brief but pleasant chat with them. After supper my friend and I went to Menards while his wife had to run her office for something or other. All in all a very pleasant evening.
Today is college football and yard waste disposal (which I was supposed to do yesterday). East coasters keep your water wings handy.
All stay safe.
Tom
