My annual Christmas shopping usually is a trip to the liquor store, but it is a little different this year. I have a grandson that is just crazy about trains. So in my brilliant mind I want to get him one this year. My wife, bless her heart always does all the buying but she is also notorius for buying plastic junk. I want this boy to have a good Lionel train set that will last him a life time and if he persues this hobby will be a good ideas for future presents. I spent the entire day yesterday looking at toy trains, that is if you could find one. One would think that with everyone out of work and our economy in the tank, that on a rainy, nasty Tuesday that shopping would be a breeze.

Guess what, no trains! I was at no less than a dozen big stores and all I could find was the battery operated chinese Junk!! After a tiring day I came home and got on the computer and found a man forty miles away that has a train hobby shop and he has what I want, and the upshot is that the price is with in twenty dollars of that crap I was looking at. While out and about I could not help but notice what other folks were buying for kids. Video games and everything electric and plastic to ride in or on. No steam engines or erector sets and for sure no decent electric trains. Then this morning as I was catching the news I see the youth of today have a new recreation, its knocking down store displays, the one they showed was a huge display of canned goods, this idiot threw a body block on it and cans went every where....I don't blame the kids I have to think that the majority are being raised without imagination or a work ethic and its a crying shame.

The golden corn ripens well and early, the stoking, stacking,.... the drawing in with the tractors and trailers and a few buck rakes thrown in, and possibly a heavy horse. It would be a great day for the collies and the terrier dogs, rats and mice would be at the bottom of the stacks so the dogs, would have a busy time hunting and killing, all the corn was gathered and ricked in what we c
