Model Raiload Layout on a 5' x 9' table in my basement. I model the Burlington Northern/Great Northern railroads, primarily. See the original "Empire Builder". Videos taken by my son.
Funny holiday story about a gift bird. I have no idea where this came from, who sent it to me or how come I put it up here. I probably didn't know what I was doing at the time... Probably still don't....
Brett Favre gets the ball from the ref after breaking Dan Marino's passing record at the Rams' Edward Jones Dome in St. Louis on December 16, 2007. (We were there....)
Some of the St. Louis Rams Cheerleading squad performing at the Packers/Rams game at the Edward Jones Dome on December 16, 2007, when Brett Favre broke the all-time passing yardage record set, previously, by Dan Marino. You know, blue & white can be almost as pretty as green & gold....
My wife wanted to feed the animals in the little petting zoo that is part of the Summerfield Farm and Zoo, just south of Belvidere, IL. This was the first and only time it has ever been opened to the public, so we went. I let her feed 'em and I just stood back and shot some video of it.
Re-creation of an Egyptian tomb, at the Field Museum of Natural History, in Chicago. Just a sample. You have to see it in person, to understand what it is all about.
Today, we went to our local animal shelter and adopted a dog that had been left there. He is supposedly, half Akita and half German Shepherd, but he looks like Akita and maybe Boxer, instead. He is one-year old and this video is of him and me in our backyard, for the first time.
