6-8 2:08:33 DAZed ok, good
6-8 2:08:31 rvn2001 True, Doug. The security chief yelled at me the first time she saw me but was much nicer and helpful once I told her that I had been a security officer for 10 years.
6-8 2:08:01 ejshelton I agree with Thom. I noticed it was a very clean city.....we were downtown and there was not trash or homeless people that we saw
6-8 2:06:45 DAZed Thom, you speak their language
6-8 2:06:40 GNFan Same as Thom. Fallback location was mixed: poor lighting, but the firs show where we could get a view from above; Rotunda was waaaay far from the show entrance. Thom's flag near the show entrance, with an arrow pointing to our location helped send *some* showgoers to us.
6-8 2:05:51 rvn2001 We had to scrounge up chairs.
6-8 2:05:35 rvn2001 The convention center staff was problematic, although, the security officers were friendly and helpful.
6-8 2:03:38 rvn2001 We had to get a new key card almost every time we came back to the motel. The city itself is pretty nice.
6-8 2:02:56 DAZed ah, ok...the setup/teardown.....totally get that
6-8 2:02:23 DAZed or was the city not great, or ???
6-8 2:02:19 rvn2001 It's the unloading, setting up and loading back up again that I'm not fond of.
6-8 2:02:00 DAZed so y'all mentioned having issue prior....did the weird stuff keep happening?
6-8 2:01:21 ejshelton It was fun.....at least the running trains.
6-8 2:00:24 rvn2001 I enjoyed the show itself. I spent most of it running trains and talking to people about them. :D
6-8 1:59:25 DAZed so did y'all enjoy the show? It looked like a nice setup and good energy.
6-8 1:57:02 GNFan Bye, John. ZU two Sundays hence,
6-8 1:56:58 ejshelton ZU John......have fun

6-8 1:53:30 DAZed another 3-1/2 day reboot for Stony I guess
6-8 1:53:05 soccrdad30 Mike, was there any interest in the two GN hoppers?
6-8 1:49:01 soccrdad30 no, I should be able to get them out Friday or saturday
6-8 1:48:35 DAZed and I'm in no hurry if you need ot wait until you get back

6-8 1:48:01 DAZed I'll try to send them this weekend
6-8 1:48:00 soccrdad30 resend me your address please
6-8 1:47:23 DAZed John, yes that is great
6-8 1:46:16 soccrdad30 Doug, you good with a trade for 6 110mm straights for the 1 good Cryo car and the other car missing a truck set?
6-8 1:42:11 soccrdad30 ha! thank you. we are going from the farthest east to the farthest north we can go in the U.P.
6-8 1:41:57 DAZed but we nod agreeingly
6-8 1:41:35 rvn2001 True.
6-8 1:41:19 GNFan And it's Thom who does the actual counting.
6-8 1:40:58 rvn2001 That would be 4 tonight.
6-8 1:40:40 DAZed we only count how many trains Thom is running
6-8 1:40:26 GNFan Enjoy, John.
6-8 1:40:14 GNFan I don't think we take attendance, John. ;-)
6-8 1:40:07 ejshelton Have fun.....hope all goes well
6-8 1:39:45 rvn2001 Have fun, john.
6-8 1:39:34 soccrdad30 we are leaving Saturday morning and won't be back until next Friday
6-8 1:38:52 rvn2001 Yup. I figured out which way the chassis goes and how the rear axles/wheels attach.
6-8 1:38:47 soccrdad30 just to let eveyone know, I won't be on this Sunday and coming Wednesday. Wife and I are going to the U.P. of Michigan for the week
6-8 1:34:26 DAZed nice gift!
6-8 1:34:00 soccrdad30 and Robert Ray has the knowledge and experience to make his own Z
6-8 1:33:56 rvn2001 Yes. it is. He said that he's getting back into his house now.
6-8 1:33:43 ejshelton Not I
