Railroad buff? Was it for full scale trains or model railroading? I have a fairly large layout in my basement...and the real things go by my house many times a day. A railroading fans heaven. There is one going by even as I type this response.ohio jones wrote:1. Fight by Preston Sprinkle

Most of his 2,748,674.23 miles were on passenger trains, mostly on weekends and vacations. The book is a collection of columns from the New Yorker magazine with stories of his more unusual journeys all over the world.gcdonner wrote:Railroad buff?

Re: What book are you reading?
My wife gave me the book "Unconditional Surrender" by Pablo Yoder. This is a book about Pete Lewis.
I sat down after work and read it straight thru. Got to bed about 11:30. I know pretty much all of the Oregon people and Oregon places that are mentioned in the book, so I found it especially interesting.
I know Pete and have really been in inspired by his life, even though I've not been close to him.

Re: What book are you reading?
Hey, OJ, I am about 2/3 through the book now. Quite interesting reading, though I almost took it back to the library after the first chapter. Even for a railroad buff like me, it would have been too much detail if the whole book was like that, but now I understand the reason for it as an introduction.gcdonner wrote:I'll have to see if I can resource it from our library system.

Thanks for the recommendation.

The Earth Moved, on the remarkable achievements of earthworms by Amy Stewart. There is a giant, flower scented worm called the Palouse worm Driloleirus americanus that is native to Oregon and Washington. It hasn't been seen, however, for over twenty years. If you live in Oregon or Washington and are digging in the garden, report a pinkish white, two foot or longer, lily-scented earthworm covered in milky white mucus to the game warden.
Also reading Building on the Gospel Foundation, The Mennonites of Franklin County, Pennsylvania and Washington County, Maryland, 1730-1970 by Edsel Burdge and Samuel Horst.
