When you make it to the top, are you still worshiping HIM?

Joshua 5:14 says “Joshua fell on his face to the earth and worshiped.” He was a five-star general. Forty-thousand soldiers saluted as he passed. Two-million people looked up to him. Yet in the presence of God, he fell on his face, and worshiped.

We’re never so strong or mighty that we don’t need to worship. Worship-less people have no power greater than themselves to call on. The worship-less heart faces Jericho all alone. Don’t go to your Jericho without first going to your Commander. Let him remind you of his all-encompassing power.

In Hebrews 13:5 he has given you this promise. “I will never fail you. I will never abandon you.” Look to Jesus for comfort. Turn your gaze away from Jericho. You’ve looked at it long enough. Your Jericho may be strong but your Jesus is stronger. Let him be your strength.

Okay folks I have been keeping in contact with a old friend up north. You know SNOW and JUST BAD WEATHER.

Well yesterday we had some bad weather here. That right Coconut Creek, Florida. We had ourselves a #1 tornado. I received on my phone a warning of a tornado alert. Looking outside and seeing the rain blow sideways is not a good sign. 

This is Costco. They were closed about half hour after the storm passed. Not sure if there was damage there or not? I went there to get some fruit for my smoothies. 

All these pictures you see above are of the roads that have been closed to the traffic. Not sure all that has happen at this time. This picture is showing a news guy asking questions about the damage in our complex, (Wynmoor) I was not sure at this time what has happen here? I did drive around and they would not let us out of the south entrance. Plus going to the theater that road was closed too. 

This picture is someone's back yard video taping stuff flying around.

These pictures are from Channel 7 News last night, (video). I just went on line and found these. 

This is Broward College parking lot. 

This is one of the Coconut Creek buses. Not sure if anyone got hurt here? I guess the wind just picked it up and came flying back down. 

This is a air shot of the tents that go over our shuffle board courts/ So I guess this was the damage back next to the theater. 

Then this morning this happen here too. If you check out my blog at any time. I love riding this Tri Rail. But this morning at 5 am it became derailed. This report tells of hitting debris on the track. There was 40 people on the train, They had to take one person to the hospital. 

Folks we need to count our blessing each and every day we have breath. It is becoming more and more crazy weather and just stuff happening in our own neighborhoods. 

Day #3 at the B@O Railroad Station. There was so much to share and I just enjoy the railroad.

Okay if you look at the blog before you will see the large barn door on the inside. That was the Lego's Train pictures. 

This is the turn table they used to turn the train around and send it back the way it came. 

In here they have set up a HO Scale train set. I know the pictures are blurry but I thought at the time they looked good? Back when this building was being used, it was the freight building. They would store things in here and load them on the train. Out front there was a loading area for wagon to pull up and unload their things and drive off with out much troubles. 

I see here there are seven (7) sizes for model trains. I just looked it up on Goggle and only found six (6) G/O/S/HO/N/Z

Now as I was much younger, my dad gave me a Lionel O Scale Train for Christmas. I might have been 5 or so? 

As I grew up I had HO scale and then in the 80's I had a N Scale set up. 

I guess these are the different HO Scale trains that they have used on this track. Talking about track. They cal track by the gauge. It is the size of the track that you use to ride your train on. Like O Gauge for O Scale. 

This Caboose was just one of the many they used in the olden days. This way there was always some on the tail of the train to keep their eye on the end. Plus there was a kitchen inside to cook for the crew. Plus they had a large red light on the end of it. This way you knew the end of the train has gone by. Or even if there was another train following behind it, could see it. I guess it is like tail lights on a car? 

Well folks I guess by now I have shown you this place, was my favor to go visit, as I was staying here. 

This is still at the B@O Railroad Station in Ellicott City, Maryland.

Okay this is the last room for this building. Now you can see the large door ahead. If I am understanding this, this is where they use to bring the engines in to work on them? 

The real neat thing is the train set up in here. 

Okay this city and area around it. It was built in two months or so. They change this every year. In the Febuary they will tear down this display and put the train car back into this room. Then this Augeust they will pull the train acr out and rebuild the Lego's again. Every year it is set up differently. 

I know with still pictures you will not see what works and doesn't. But pretty much everything here does something. I think there are five (5) different trains running after you push the white button on the side of the display. 

This poster explains how they built the tracks and how they got back and forth on the job itself. It was surprising to see after putting the track down how much faster the carts would go by horse. The horses could go twice as far on the tracks, than on the ground.  

This is more of the Lego's 

It really is neat how they came up with the bedding and how to hold the rials down. 

More of the Lego's. The reason the pictutrs are not in order is, In the one room there were all kinds of different displays. 

These are some of the different lanterns and flags they used to direct the engineer of the train engine. 

They even had people standing at the railroad crossing. You know where we have the crossing bars and lights that we use these days. 

These are the guys and gals that build these displays every year. 

I still have a couple more pictures about this train station. I will putting more in tomorrow. 

I just went on the web site and it shows you a lot of their displays they have done over the many years. It really is kinda of neat to see. 

Plus the different lay outs too. 

This is the B @ O Railroad Station, it is in Ellicott City, Maryland.

This be the building of the B@O Railroad Station. 

As you walk in you cansee how the guys that worked at the train station lived their lives. Pretty much had their needs provide. 

As you start walking you can read all kinds of stories about the Civil War. Then how the train brought it to this area. 

This model set up is called the N Scale. 

This one is the H O Scale.

Here they were showing us how the telegraph was very much part of the war too. 

This glass case has stories about the different storms that came through Ellicott City, MD. 

As these two train were going around, I asked the children in the room, I know the one train is Thomas. What is the name of the other train? One child spoke up and said James. These are remakes of the show or comic strip that the children have seen for many years now. 

Thomas The Train. 

I have many more pictures to share tomorrow about this place.
