Good afternoon
I finished (my part) of building a windmill for my wife. Her brother made a frame with a 24 inch bicycle wheel in it and I convinced her it would be a nice windmill. I made the blades from hard rock maple that I threw out of a gondola when I was working the Kiski. They actually were well balanced when I put them on the wheel. My wife thinks it's neat so I am a hero for a minute or so.
Worked an hour trying to put headlights in a locomotive but nothing was going right so I just walked away.
Rain here today so playing inside. I may sit on the porch and watch the tomato plants grow if I can get that much energy.
Cheers
Charlie
