Moving to Indiana

What up? - Been crazy lately, lost my job and have to move. Better job
and back to the Western-mid-west. South Bend, IN. Loading everything
layout wise into a small truck along with enough household stuff for a
studio apartment. Family coming out in Spring. Have to sell the house
here. Be able to make some of the events in Maryland and PA too.

Keep May 2-3, 2009, in mind.  First N Scale Weekend event to be held at the Franklin County fairgrounds in Columbus, Ohio.  This is a spinoff from the Bedford, PA event that has been held the last four years.  An All Nscale event it will feature layouts, both Ntrak and non plus some venders.  But the emphasis is on the layouts and running trains.  The Bedford, PA event will be in August, 2009.

Here's wishing you a large basement in the near future, and a large payroll check to accommodate it!

You heard the story about the EsPee modler who won the "Best of Show". They asked him how he got that great paint job "Oh, I burned the paint on the sides of the hood with a blow torch, then I dipped the unit in used motor oil, and left it out in the sun for 5 years." ;D

I went on the interview and it really wasn't me, so I accepted a new job...drum roll
please...Yuma, AZ on the UP mainline from LA-Texas. Old SP Sunset. Close to all
my family here in California. So scratch the headlines. Sorry Dave no chili and beer.
Or in the words of Rodney Carrington "Ti*** and beer".

Walkercolt: Thanks; I laughed for an hour solid and now my rather pronouced sides hurt..... just perfect......

Chuck: Better weather if not a tad hot in the summer....."home is where you at man "...............

Blow torch; motor oil and sun - I'm stealing that !
Model railroading isn't saving my life, but it's providing me moments of joy not normally associated with my current situation..... Train are good!
