Facebook

I had never really done anything on Facebook but LeeAnne signed me up for it. Its kinda interesting. I've been playing around with that lately. Not much else going on. I think I'll try to update my website soon and we have the Seattle trip coming up. We went to see LIVE last night, that was really good. I'm ready for Fall.

AudioBlog

So I was thinking after the summer about putting an audio blog or something of that sort together for the scanner stuff down here. I'm not sure how I would do that, I guess my scanner feed would be good enough now. I was thinking more of something you can put on an ipod to hear the previous days action. This would be really great around my area given the scarcity of transmissions sometimes. I went walking around Morrisville today, up near where Park West Village is suppose to go in. Doesn't look like there is much going on, maybe the housing downturn has put that project on hold?? We had a big layoff last Monday but I survived. Hopefully I can make it though this recession. Just got back from a vacation at the Outer Banks. It was really nice to get away.

RTP Railfan Radio Down

I had to take the railfan audio server down for the summer. For some reason the computer keeps shutting down (maybe cause its in the attic and its about 130 up there). In addition my power bill was very high in June so this will also save me some electricity. I'll probably pick it back up in September. Maybe by then I can get a Traintenna for better pickup. I haven't been doing much railfanning anyways. Talk more soon...

Too hot for railfanning

Man, I have been really slacking on my railfan stuff. I got a promotion at work and I have even less time for railfan stuff. I guess I have also just been lazy about updating the site and blog. I'm planning on a railfan trip to the northwest this summer so that should be fun. Got the DPD productions map of the northwest so we just have to plan out a route. Should be fun!

Man, Slacking!

Work has been crazy. Seems like I am getting more people to the site and thats great. I have some free time this weekend, maybe I can get some work done on updating and more pictures. Radio is down now too, I think I just need a reboot. Power must have went out. See you later!

Spring is here....

That means lots of yard work to do. Thus the lack of posts, not to mention hectic at work. I haven't been getting out to see much lately, but I did catch a freight today at Clegg. Soon I hope to get a Traintenna for my attic setup. I don't really listen to it much but it seems to be working ok. I'm wondering if I'm going to keep it going through the summer because it gets pretty hot up there plus the cost of running the computer all the time. I'll let you know when I get the new antenna set up.

RTP Railfan Radio back online!

I went ahead and put the RTP Railfan scanner stream back online. Seems to be working so far. Let me know if you have any comments! Scanner Link.
