Train Station


Good Wednesday Morning to you all. Today's picture was taken in 1905, and it shows the train station in Lackawanna, Pennsylvania. Notice there are no cars in the picture . . .just carriages, and the train.

I don't know about you, but it is sure cold where I am this morning. It is 13 degrees here, which is very cold for West Texas. It only got up to the low 20's yesterday, so things have been frozen for two days now. How cold is it where you are? No including Wind Chill, which we all know is a scam.

Coal Town


Today's picture shows Osage, West Virginia, a coal town. The picture was taken in 1938, and shows a train pulling a load of coal through the center of town. This is a great picture of the center of town.

Domestic Update:

It was 107 here yesterday, so progress was a little slow on the greenhouse. We worked on some of the odds and ends things, and got the wet wall pretty much finished. I went out to mow the back yard at about dusk, and it was still 102. Weatherman calls for similar hot weather for the next 5 days.
