Greetings, gang.
Sunny and 32 at the moment with a predicted high near the mid 50s which is typical for this time of year. Next week will be a different story with highs only in the mid 30s with a 40% chance of snow Monday night.
Spent 4 hours in the yard yesterday picking up leaves. Also did a couple loads of laundry. For a treat after all that hard work I played with my new P2K 0-6-0 switcher. Runs very smooth, slow, and quiet but pulling power is very limited. Struggled to pull 4 cars up a grade that my Roundhouse Model 40 can easily pull 6 up the same grade.
Today I need to dispose of the yard waste and finish the laundry. College football at 2:30.
Another nice feature of a land line is that when the power goes out the house phone will (generally) still work.
Prayers for those affected by the fires.
All stay safe.
