[QUOTE="PlanoSteve, post: 3154182, member: 91609"]OK, so on Friday I completed 9 weeks of proton radiation therapy. All is OK & I am grateful to my Doc's for identifying the issue (although I still can't stand the residual "hot flashes" from the hormone treatments, but that's supposed to subside with time...it better!!). So my way of celebrating (in addition to a $400 tab @ Buca di Beppo for my favorite people on Saturday night) is to show off two of my railroad related possessions: First is an encased 1933 cent, commemorating the Baltimore & Ohio - America's 1st railroad. [ATTACH=full]808619[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]808620[/ATTACH] The second is a massive, what I will call a token, but it's 3 1/4" in dia. & 1/4" thick. It is hefty - I can't give the weight since it exceeds the capacity of my scale, but I'm guessing it's something like 1/4 to 1/3 pound: [ATTACH=full]808631[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]808632[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]808633[/ATTACH] This second one seems to be solid brass & has the tactile "feel" of having spent time in a shop environment, although aside from the grunge, there is very little wear evident. So, that's it...enjoy! :happy::happy::happy:[/QUOTE]
