Good morning folks
It is 64 alongside the Schuylkill River this morning. The wind has begun kicking up. Good thing they are running the water truck otherwise we would be in a dust storm. High is supposed to be 68. No rain for at least the next 10 days. I can’t remember the last rain we had. It might have been 3 weeks ago.
This weekend got off to a bad start. I had planned to go to Timonium for the train show on Saturday. However, my wife had a severe asthma attack during the night. We were one medication away from a trip to the ER. Luckily that last medication and a shower brought the reaction down. She has been having these attacks for the last two weeks and as of yet we have not identified the source. She did feel well enough Saturday afternoon to go with my daughter to Dalton Farms in Swedesboro, NJ to pick sunflowers. I was able to take a trip to Trains, Toys, and Models in Claymont, DE. On the way back I stopped at the grocery store. Sunday, we lounged around the house. I did some laundry.
My trip to hobby shop saw me come home with three Walthers Mainline X29 boxcars and a 3-dome tanker. I spied a couple items I want to get next trip. I did not get a chance to run any trains. However, I went on a kit building spree. I built 11 kits and repaired/upgraded 2 cars over the weekend.
The wife has a dentist appointment this afternoon and tonight is Senior Night for the varsity volleyball. My daughter’s team, the freshman are helping to run the festivities. This makes what to do for dinner an issue since it will most likely be just me eating at the normal time.
Tonight will be laundry and maybe some more kits or some train running.
I hope everybody has a good day.
