    Does Alabama support conservation and the environment by restocking ponds (lakes?) with different fish species like they do in Mississippi? If so, I'll be up next weekend with a fly rod. Oh yeh, and I'll help by cleaning up the out building and building your framework... you believe that, right? :D

    That's a great home you have there.... :cool: [​IMG]

    Yes, it is very beautiful here, and very relaxing. The dam is actually a road that crosses the pond. The road then goes back up the mountain, and there is a valley on the other side. NS runs through there, and at night you can hear the engines working hard to climb a grade. Perfect! :D

    I don't know if it is 'stocked', but there are fish in there. ;)
    I have seen several jump since I have been here.

    Hey,
    Funny how things work out for the best.Congrats my friend. [​IMG]
    At least now I've got a place to fish,run "N" trains & ride real ones(a real busman's holiday [​IMG] ) Looks like the big decision is weather to drive or fly? Plenty of time to think this out. :D

    Ballasted deck. I'm used to seeing some concrete in there as well. But that would be getting pretty heavy on a wooden structure. What did they use for a trough?

    :D

    Wow, nice digs, Jerry - I'm envious! [​IMG] That type of living would suit me just fine; my folks are originally from down south. I've spent summer vacations with relatives down there, and I wouldn't mind moving if I could; I'm sick of the urban rat race. :mad: Nice to see you're getting settled in, and really nice seeing those T-2s! Do you have any other unit numbers you could post, besides the 5387? Living in SoCal, I used to see those T-2s on a daily basis during the SP years (including the 5387!). I miss seeing them on their home turf (T-2s are my favorite units!), but at least they've got a good home, and a good hogger to run 'em. ;)

    I wanna personally thank all of you who helped me move this past weekend.

    Jerry, I promise I'll replace all the beer! HemiAdda2d and SecretWeapon are the ones who hogged it down! [​IMG] And don't worry! Think of it this way, I'll keep an eye on the trains while you're at work! [​IMG] :eek:
