Good Morning All from NE Ohio

where the temp is 27 deg and heading to 31 with snow falling. So far about 2" of fresh snow for a white Christmas. :thumb:

We had a great time at the trains show yesterday. 4 of us from the OTTS group went together and meet another member of the group there. Then afterwards we went to lunch together. Afterwards we stop at a flee Market to see if they had any trains. Couple of months ago they did and yesterday none, just some flees for the dog.

Pick up 2 more diecast steam wagons and a new caboose with smoke and flashing tail light. Now I have to wait until Christmas to play with them.

Come on down Guys, It's in the 60s here today.
I know what that kind of weather is like, That's why we moved.
I used to work for the Pa. Turnpike AAA emergency road service for about 5 years. Froze my butt off fixing cars along the roadside and cleaning up accidents.

Good Morning All from NE Ohio​

where the temp is 22 and headed to 29 with overcast skies.

First Day of WINTER. With all the snow we have had, it's about time.

Been working on the back side of our layout. Almost done. This will give me a new angle for taking pics from. :thumb:

Morning. 27 again this AM. Got a farm tractor tire [front thank goodness] I need to take off and get new tube. Gone flat. Bought tractor new in 1975. Original tires. Guess it is about time. Will try to do both as other one is jsut as old. Needs to warm up. They say into the 60's by Christmas. :thumb: Better than those Yanks with all the SNOW. The only thing white here will be the GRITS. Have a good day and God blesss all.

 

[Ray Marinaccio]

Good morning Guys,
I'm not planning on a white Christmas.
If I miss the snow I just look at a photo like this one of when we had snow here.
That's enough to run a chill up my spine and the desire is gone.

 

[Chief Eagles]

Tractor tires done. Lug nuts came off real easy. Still glad I had air to the tractor/boat shed. Impact wrench is faster. Went to service center and they put in new tubes, anti-freeze and water. Some air for pressure and home I came. Went right back on. Now for a mile walk to the pond and a mile back. Wish it would warm up.

Yep, For a little while.

Only thing I can think of is: Did you try downloading it to your computer first, then opening it?

It might be confused by the net

Otherwise you need a graphics program, like Realplayer. http://www.real.com/

yes, it's free
