MAIDEN TRIP TO OKNRAIL TRAIN CLUB MEETING

my husband and myself are members of a local train club: OkNrail. (www.Oknrail.org). and it was that time of the year for elections.

i had thrown my personal hat in, to be the secretary, as bruce asked me to do so, because another members handwriting was barely legible (he said, i never saw it, so i cant say for sure).
and i said id only run for this position if another person would run against the shoe-in for the new presidency.
i had even emailed his nomination for election in.

one problem.

craigs job has him get off a bit too late, and when he hits the house by the time we end up at the meeting, were late. so people were asking the then former president how i could be the secretary if i wasnt going to be there on time.

well, as fortune would have it, OR you could call it a blessing, thats what im gonna call it. we fixed the van up, and timing has a weird way of making sure its an important thing to know...it was fixed just in time for me to make the 1st meeting for these all-important elections.

another problem, i had never drivien to the meeting place alone before.

so, i had to have a maiden run, so id know my way there, and i had to be driving it so id know where to be looking for landmarks.
its different when your the driver than when your the passenger.

so, we took my maiden trip the day before the meeting. these are some pics. ENJOY!

pulling out of the driveway.

success! :)

as a side note, i won the secretary election! it was a split tie between me and Bobbie Becker. we had a re-vote (secretly, i was hoping hed get it) my cast for president turned the position down, left me with no one to vote for, so i felt boxed in for the position. and i had hoped Robbie would win.
but as it would happen, *I* won it...on the second vote.

and i think, if im not mistaken, and i may be...i may be the 1st female to have any sort of position on the board.

eh. it is what it is.

HOME DECOR -NEW (Used) COUCH

craig works with a guy who was consolidating his home with his new wifes family and they had double of everything, it seemed.

the offfer came up for us to go and get a couch, (or both, actually) if we wanted them.

of course, the 1st priority was to make sure wed have room for this new (used) couch.
so we spent all day on a saturday rearranging the furniture in both the garage and the living room to get the one couch out, we had gotten for free at Daniels Boy Scout Garage sale a couple of years earlier, to get this new couch in.

so, all day was spent all day saturay making room for the new couch, and then sunday we went and got it.

i didnt take a pic when it was at the original house, i forgot to, but i did take a pic of it before it went in the garage.

yeah...nice couch. :)

and here it is in its new spot in the house.

wall looks kinda empty now, i need to put some family pics, or some nice phrase up there. :)
