Tonight's post is being written while a delightful heavy rain is falling. Tropical systems off the west coast of Mexico have been feeding late-season monsoon moisture up into the state. We need the water.
Backing up 12 hours, Ric & Kent came over and we went down to the Railyards to view the Santa Fe 2926 that was under steam today.
She's a great hulking beast with 80" drive wheels. Rumored to hit speeds of up to 113 mph, we're looking forward to the day when this locomotive will make passenger runs up to Las Vegas, NM for overnight stays in that town's historic hotels.
Earlier on Saturday morning, there was the follow-up to yesterday's plant labeling. I updated my spreadsheet and created a map of label locations of the 21 placements. Each red dot represents a label in the ground.
All in all, a productive day avoiding political news.
