Izzy my mom and dad's little Yorkie went missing today from the McEwen area. If found please contact us. I've been looking for her since noon. Not sure what direction she ran off in. She was last seen chasing chipmunks. My little dog was with her but he did leave me so not sure where she ran off too.

All around the house now. But it's seems to be mostly cloud to cloud strikes. Which is good. Getting a little rain but not much. (at Baker County, Oregon) https://www.instagram.com/p/CSLrnwkrRNQ1w4s0NfOIYpOjfghHnInaXVbC980/?utm_medium=tumblr

Jace, Weston, Kinley, and I spent the day working on the train, fixing cars, greasing, oiling, and lighting the fire. I can't thank them all enough for the help!!!! It takes all of us and many others to keep this thing going!!! I especially need the help. Takes me twice as long at least what it takes others to do because of the meds I'm on. I get so tired so easy now. I just can't get used to it. And it's so frustrating. My mind says you can do this and my body says think again.

Almost 3 hours to grease and oil. Just lit the fire. Now it will take close to 6 hours to get up to 150 psi of steam. It will then be shut down for the night and tomorrow morning with any luck we will have about 50 psi to get started with and in 3 hours be ready to roll.

Time to grease the beast. Starting early to beat the heat for the hard part. Will Light the fire in her around 10 to give her 6 hours to warm up. (at Sumpter Valley Railroad) https://www.instagram.com/p/CRY6x5gJel4i3s73kL_1Mr3ZuwoKC14lHRgOio0/?utm_medium=tumblr
