Try this link , it's for kids , but adults might like it too. You can get a screensaver that shows two zambonis cleaning a NHL ice suface . Take a look . http://www.nhl.com/kids/
Those Belmont Park pictures bring back great memories of the annual "pilgimage" to the park. We had no car, so it was transit all the way. A great time.
Steve; Thanks for the steam locomotive links, they are very interesting to me. This loco in Kingston is a classic. I wonder who puts money in the meter to keep it from being towed away? mpu
No problem MPU , we try to please . Remember the old saying "you can please some of the people some times , but you can't please all the people all the time" "Have Fun and Play Safe" Steve
Thanks BobB check out the site there's lots of stuff .http://www.steamlocomotive.com/http://narrowmind.railfan.net/WPYR/late-steam/late-steam.htmlSteve
Nice stuff, Steve. I'm saving those sites. some nice model roads as well in there. Here in Toronto, there's George's trains on Mt. Pleasant and a nice hobby shop on the Danforth. Both have nice trains. I'm often the guy with his nose pressed to the window. I know there aer a fwe other shops in Toronto, but those ar the ones I know. BobB
Steve; I am more familiar with the saying ''You can fool some of the people some of the time...but you can't fool all of the people all of the time'' .........but our elected officials keep trying to. Today is the anniversary of the assassination of JFK, so I think it is only fitting to use his famous quote "Ask not what your country can do for you, but rather, what can you do for your country''. May he rest in peace. M.P.U.
