    I'm going to make my way down to the SF CalTrain station this weekend. They usually have a caboose on the side lines down there. :)

    Every thing is fine as a frog hair. Just a note oldrk posted his wife's photo as a surprise to her. So IF and I am not saying any thing to sway the vote but IF his wife also a member should win I think the prize will have to go to her.

    That said let the voting begin.:thumbs_up::thumbs_up::thumbs_up:

    Not that I was counting but the word here is "We". Before we were doing this I held down the bottom pretty good some times. But I do it for the fun not ever planing to win.
    Oh and keep those votes coming, may the best photo win by one vote LOL
