Dear ,
Train season is here. Tomorrow, May 2nd, I'll be attending the annual FRA Rules refresher class.
If you're a newer subscriber, I got a once-in-a-lifetime part-time job last summer.
Train
Conductor
Yes, a real conductor on a real full-sized train.
CLICK HERE to see my magic hat and the bow tie that makes women swoon. Kathy just rolls her eyes and shakes her head. She thinks I'm delusional.
Maybe she's right! :-)
My first trip this season is May 24th.

Deck Cleaning Video
I just wrote a fast column for the Washington Post about the CORRECT way to clean a deck.
In that column I mention that the WORST thing you can use is chlorine bleach. The fancy name you might see on a product label is:
sodium hypochlorite
NEVER use that. It's toxic to trees, plants, grass, etc. It also accelerates the corrosion of all the important metal fasteners, bolts, joist hangers, etc. that hold your deck together!
The SECOND WORST
thing you can use on your deck I talk about in the following video.
It's ON SALE now for just three more days.
