    I don't follow the engines -- does Honda make inferior racing engines?

    Honda and Chevy are the only engine providers for the Indy series.....Franchitti had a Honda engine that blew up on the warm up lap and currently the first five cars are Chevy powered...after that the mix is pretty even.

    Definitely better tonight. I'm watching You've Got Mail ('cause I'm a sucker for Meg Ryan) and relaxing.

    You do house work today?

    I'm caught up in another Clive Cussler novel (a friend at work loaned me a box of them!). I'll start reading at a little after 4, then fall asleep at 6 and dream about Meg Ryan if I'm lucky.

    Meg is definitely a cutie.

    Got the porch stained yesterday. Now I have to stain and install the new steps I built. I'll post some pics when I'm all finished in a couple days.

    Today my sister and I hung out at the Illinois Railway Museum for 8 hours while her son worked in the steam shop. He volunteers there on Saturdays. Pretty cool place. It's grown immensely sine my last visit 33 years ago! Took a bunch of pics, though I fear they're not very inspired. Haven't reviewed them on the computer yet, so who knows?

    Afterward we had supper then went to a town called Rochelle where there's a very busy rail crossing of the Union Pacific and the BNSF railroads to watch trains. We saw 8 freights in about an hour's time. If you like railroad action it's a good place to go. At any rate, we hit the road at 8 am and got back around midnight. About a 200 mile round trip all together.
