    I have been watching the weather posts' from all. While you are trying to stay warm, I have been trying to repair lawn sprinklers (annual maintainance) and baby-sitting my daughter's 7-8 month old boxer. What a handful it has been. I already have two dogs, so they have taken over. I am packing...

    Jeffrey - Your getting quite good with the camera. Those auto's and the MKT tank car need a little weathering. Looks too "off the shelf" if you know what I mean. Got to head to the HD or the Pipe and Supply store this morning. I pulled the two troublesome sprinkler valves apart yesterday...

    Nice Photo - Jeffrey. Glad to hear that you are doing better. Haven't done anything worthwhile lately. Too many house projects to contend with. Have a sprinkler valve that has to be repaced - leaking enough to flood the low spot in the yard. Have the water shut off, but now have to wait for...

    Sorry to hear about your absence Jeffrey. Hope that you get back to normal, or as normal as you can with your feet. I relate to a post that you made several days ago - that you were not going to try and do the shoveling work, then you go out and almosr do yourself in. Hope U get feeling...

    02-18-09 It's a beautiful day outside. Finally, a day with no rain. We have had about a week of solid off/on rain. A dry day is welcome. My wife is dragging me out to see some movies today. She is into the Oscar thing, so I have to humor her this time of year. She and her two sisters plus...
