  Wow Del, seems like just yesterday when you brought him home from the cabbage patch......  He's really grown!   Looks like you have about 10 more good years,then it changes...... :devil



    :salute


 PS: Aspen that's a nice bow you have!  I'm working on 1 myself ATM and I suppose it's keeping me from flying because my hands don't want to work after a couple of hours of working the rasp!

Life.......but.....there is a reason to show up in AH.
When you're in the mood to  :D :D :D :D   KILL SOMETHING!  :D :D :D :D (of course you're going to die too.)
Nothing like the feeling of disappointment immediately after that feeling of VICTORY........ heheh

Railroad. 715 is correct, it is pretty old...i'm guessing late early 70s


 :aok That's awesome uptown. Are you with a railroad company or 3rd party company that refurbishes? Maybe an SD40? or my favorite SD40T-2.

I found the perfect cure for my Golf addiction 24 years ago....I got a job on a Golf Course. Once it became free it was of no value :)

Well, time to mow the fareways, now THAT is an addiction.

Besides the usual real life stuff like work, family, sport etc I have another WW2 combat related hobby that keep me away especially during good weather. I am talking about ACES class 1/12 scale streamer rc combat.
