    Well, we've done it once again. We're almost through another work week, so lets sit back a bit and tell each other what our plans are this coming weekend.

    With this 2-Rail O finally out of the shop, I can concentrate fully on my Galesburg modules, and good thing too as Galesburg RR Days is NEXT WEEK!

    I plan to make a run to Menards this morning and get the paint for the fascia as well as some other odds and ends. I just have a bit more concrete work to do on the 2nd module then I'm done that laborious process. I hope to get two more switch machines installed as well as get a lot of painting done on the roads. The other project I need to finish this weekend is the transport box I made to safely transport the modules in the Cherokee.

    Sometime in there, I also will take Jessica the Jeep's hard top off and install a soft top I picked up recently as well as get her new wheels on and generally clean her up and ready for RR Days. It's been a tradition since 2002 to bring the railfan Jeep and get her cleaned up ready for chasing trains. This year Angela will drive the Wrangler while the Cherokee will be both a module transport and tent as my co-conspirator and I will be camping out this year.

    I'm sure there will be some domestic duties to be performed as well but Angela knows this is my last weekend before the big show so she'll let me work.

    So how about you? What do you have planned for the weekend? Let us know with an image or two if you have them. We'll come back on Monday the 20th to see how we all did. Until then, have a great weekend, stay safe and...

    High Greens!

    I need to move some furniture in my apartment so the manager can come in a replace my living room blinds. I promised to burn some CDs for a friend. I can hopefully get to some modeling this weekend.
