Man..............I thought I was gone too git my shack today but they ran into a problem. The Amish boys didn't git the roof shingled last night and the siding on the front peak so I can't git till Monday around dinnertime..................

So, we went over to look at it and man I'm gonna tell ya what...................this shack is huge!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! One thing he did do was he used a moisture barrier plywood. It will never git mold on it.

This is what ya need Jon for your train shed........................























You could really have some long runs in there Jon..........................

I was tellinin' the guy that maybe he could start buildin' model train shacks...............................

Tramp,

Thank you for the link. I think Connally's shed image is my favorite.

Hev,

How long before your new shed looks like the one in above link?

"...some images work, some don't..."
--Kathleen Connally

I know what she means. Here are two of mine that don't.

I was adjusting the lense opening and shutter speed trying to get the best image of ocotillo blossoms when this guy showed up...


This image was made with the camera settings I settled upon...


Camera settings are good, but the image does not work for me.

[Tramp]

I'm in. I'm trying to decide what color to get my new Dodge Charger. Any suggestions? Maybe I'll have it custom painted Obama Blue.

Wayne, her photos are very straight forward, just like she is. I think it's interesting she shoots everything so close to home. Did you read her story? I like her yellow line one.

Jon, did the Hudson really actually truly run perfectly? I might need one but I'm not in the mood for a bunch of fixes and returns.

Dennis, what happened to the Sandy River? Did you keep it or sell it? That was one lovely pike.

Pete, I liked your poem. It works if you read it out loud.

Tramp, the Hudson ran flawlessly. A replacement engine is being sent by Scott concerning the tilted air pumps. I'm curious as to any other train maker that takes such good care of their customers.

What hue is Obama Blue?

And seeing as the "Anointed One" has decreed Chrysler shall merge, what size Fiat engine will your Charger have?

[Tramp]

Jon, I'm getting mine with the new green-peace rubber band motor. Very silent and faster than a French snail.

[The Dirt]

Pete, Love the picture, no comment on the poem.

But..but...but..Wayne, *sob*... I worked two whole weeks on that baby!!

(hmm, or was it two minutes??)
LOL!!

Sh*t.
*gloom*.
Another car that will shut down my Kia.

[Daisy]

Did somebody say tequila?

[2railjon]

LOL, You guy's!!!!!
Tramp just think of all the baby polar bear cubs you'll save with that engine!!!!!
I almost feel guilty for owning a gas guzzling 350! (Almost).
You ain't gonna scrap the 327 are Ya?
DAIZzzzIE!!!! Strawberry daiquiri coming up!!!!! Are you guys able to shed some your Winter "skins" yet?
Is Spring on the way?

Dennis,

Thank you.

I love this place... free booze. I've got beer if anyone is interested.

Tramp,

Did you read her story? I like her yellow line one.

Yes. Pete and Hev have given us many images of the joys of rural living also. Their images are outstanding too.

I like the shed and you like the yellow line. One image is ultra cluttered and the other ultra simple. I wonder what that says about us?

Hev,

How long before your new shed looks like the one in above link?

.

That is my shed Wayne. Those are pictures of it almost finished Amish boys are gonna git on er first thing Monday morning so they can have it at my location around dinnertime.

9:00am your time..............................

Your shed is completely empty. I was wondering how long before it looks like this inside?

If I had your new shed, it would take about a month to fill it up. Dream... dream... dream.

All times are UTC - 7 hours here in Tucson... always... no matter if you move your clock ahead or behind.

SOK 29er leaned up against a stack of tomato plant stakes on a washboard road. It's single speed but not (yet) a fixie. Destination was Black Mountain (in the distance). Without gears, it weighs out at 17.5 pounds with lights and seat pack containing cone wrench and a spare, and full water bottle. Not bad for a front suspension (Rockshox REBA) bike. A kick in the pants to ride and a joy to be out there.

After a long, hot, dusty ride, Tramp's gift of weekend beer and a rest cure sitting out on the patio at 71 degrees at 6 PM was just right for an April evening.

Tramp,

IMO it will not get through Congress in a really usable form.

And, it shouldn't. Least not 'til Congress recinds the trillion they've blown on the union payback, (I'm sorry, I meant so called stimulus). Christ, I'm so sick of hearin' Obama, God's gift to the United States. Oh thank you, Lord, for sending this incredible liberal communist to save our nation by spending us into oblivion. We worship the ground that he walks on..... BULLSHIT.
This guy's a pig and a scheming conniver just like the rest of the pols, maybe even worse 'cause he can lie with such a straight face.

Mitch,

I agree with you 100%! Hopefully the damage done by Nobama and Company will not be irreversible!

On the bright side ... there should only be 3 years and 9 months more of the nonsense.
