Just wrapped up my first ever railfanning experience where I was behind the wheel (well, if you discount the MQT at 7 Mile during class). Permit in hand, first ever drive without an instructor (but with dad in the car of course) lead us to Grandville, Wyoming Yard, WATSON and Leonard chasing P370. Nice change after being driven to the trains for well over a decade. Still nearly 7 months before I can drive alone, however.

That reminds me of this clip from "Gimme A Break" episode "Nell Goes to Jail."



Around 2:10 in the video is where he says he'll call her about her phone not working. :lol:

Hopefully nothing like this forms near Goshen, IN. In the past week tornado sirens have been activated twice because of beavertail clouds or rain shafts that resemble funnel clouds. Neither clouds have rotation and are harmless.

How many deer could a reindeer rain if a reindeer could rain deer!?
Rule #1: BerkshireKid is God. Rule #2: God is always right. Rule #3: If you think you may actually be right refer to Rules #1 & #2.
