Welcome to 2021 indeed!!

2021 starts in a new place with lots of new space for everything that is fun and exciting.

2020 ended with a huge push to exit my storage units and subsequently my apartment and enter the realms of owning my own house.  And we did it, with a day to spare, to great benefit all around.

This year we will aim to complete the projects of last year and blow out a lotta dust..

Onwards!!

A couple weeks ago we had a discussion about how cars may be shoved around a right radial spur.  This lends itself to further discussion on how any industry might move cars while they are within their zone of control.

The details follow in the next post.

I was pleasantly surprised with a trip home today when my dad told my wife he had peaches on the peach trees, and her bubbly personality meant there was simply no way I could say No.  If there's on thing she enjoys most, it's harvesting anything and everything from field and tree, and I do like white peaches myself.  This also meant I would be in the same neighborhood s that old Churn Well Drilling rig that I started modeling a couple months back.

A new project from the days of steam headed right into the digital Era.
