Hi everyone.
First I will update on Wayne. I talk to him every other week and he is doing fine. He is spending a lot of time in a hobby shop in St Cadherins.
He had an incident a year ago and got lost while traveling to a friends because of road detours and it scared him. He thinks he has the beginning stages of Alzheimer's and has been to a doctor. I see nothing in the way of memory loss that isn't normal for late 70's but his mother died from it in her 50's.
He had computer issues and finally gave up. He had been using Windows for years but his daughter gave him a Mac and I think the difference was more than he wanted to attack so last week he told me he had given it to his grand kids. Frankly, he seems to have given up on everything but modeling and he is doing a lot of custom work for the hobby shop. He is fine and in good spirits and hopes to visit me yet this year.
We had a great day today weatherwise and I finally found out my new great grandsons name. Noah Edward. They had the middle name but took them 5 days to decide on a first name.
My grand daughter that lives alone in town had 3 St. Bernard's that crossed the bridge this year, they were all over 11 years old and that is remarkable for the breed. Her last one died 2 months ago. When she went to work last night her fellow workers had got together and got her a Burmese Poodle puppy. It was love at first site. Wonderful friends to do this for her and it is fully vetted. And he loves me too.
I managed to renumber 11 hopper cars tonight. The decals from K4 decals were perfect.
I also got my motor home on level ground and put some atf on the bolts for the sway bar. I am replacing the bushings and if I let the bolts soak a day or so maybe I won't break one.
Good night all
Charlie
