But who's counting?
Well some of us may be. According to the sign in I''ve been a member for 4 years and 3 weeks. I suppose that and an an active Metrocard will get me a ride on the NYC subway.
Now if I only had somewhere to go.

Been following Joe's musings and teachings for several years. Was an early one to sign up for his Siskiyouline on Yahoo groups, ordered his video series and watched every one. I have been trying to get a layout started since I was in junior high (about 60+ years ago and "who is counting") with mixed results. Too many other projects, including making a living. Finally we have built our retirement home with a space in it to put in a 14 ft x 16 ft layout in it, that is when I get it finished. The HVAC guy is supposed to put in the third zone for heat and conditioning this week, I bought the insulation today and the rest of the lighting stuff. So, if I am lucky I can get started on the sheetrock before my knee surgery, maybe in the next three months or so.
Over the last 10 years or so I have been acquiring rolling stock and "iron" in anticipation of being able to utilize them. I haven't taken inventory, so I don't really have a good idea what there is there. After our move, especially.
The project had to wait on negotiations with the Board of Directors in order to allocate sufficient space and funding to build a railroad from scratch.
So much to do and so little time to do it? (And live to enjoy it?)
If anyone is interested, I do have a story about my wife's grandfather and railroading in the Black Hills in South Dakota.

Just a few weeks here, but wishing it was longer. I should head to the basement to see what the cat damaged today, but there are too many new threads to read.
