      Good morning, Dan; Thank you for dialing in and the comments. We have climber to a whopping 2 F. at 0935 MST. I always enjoy a visit with Darrell. A great ambassador for AMTRAK.
      Anyway, have a great Wednesday back there.

    With that temperature, I'll bet that coffee felt mighty good. Thanks to Mr. Darrell for his greeting.

      Good afternoon, Ken; Thank you for dialing in and the comments. The temperature is climbing out here as it has just passed thru 8 F. Almost a heat wave! LOL!
      It wasn't too bad on the platform. Just a bit of ice to navigate and the hood of the parka kept the wind off the nape of my neck. I will never turn down coffee from Darrell. Today it did double duty warming my fingers and the rest of me as well. It's always nice to have a visit with Darrell. I am sure we will see him again before the month is out.
      Hope that you have a great afternoon and evening back there.
      Please take care, stay warm, and safe!

    BRRRRR!!! 🥶🥶🥶❄❄❄Mike, you're the man! Out there in those conditions. Thanks for the video from my warm home in Denver (outdoors here it's 9F, feels like 1F). It's fun to see Darrell. Nice warm friendly energy! Take care today!

      Good morning, Suz; I thank you for dropping by as well as the comments. It seems that you will be much warmer up there. Oh well. More snow tonight and tomorrow. we have made 3. F at 0955. Heat wave! LOL! I do like it when Darrell stops by even without the coffee.
      Anyway, have a great Wednesday up there.
      Please take care, stay warm, and safe!

    Good Wednesday morning Mike! It’s 8 degrees and sunny, clear skies in the Heartland this morning and should be 20 degrees here as well today! I wish we would have the predicted 40 degrees here haha! Always on the ball Mr. Darrell is! Fresh hot coffee is always welcome! Have a great Wednesday out your way Sir! I am here! Mark in Iowa.

      Good morning, Mark; Thanks for dialing in and the comments. You are having a true heat wave back there! LOL! We just broke 3 F. here at 0955. More snow tonight into tomorrow followed by a warming trend into the 20s. I had today marked on the calendar that Darrell would be thru. And I kinda blew it off. Always nice to have him step in front of the camera. I am sure we will see him again before the month is out.
      Have a great Wednesday back there.
      Please take care and stay safe!

      Good morning, Tom; I thank you for looking in and the comments. This meet with Darrell was well timed as the coffee lasted about 5 minutes after I started the PU again. Sure helped warm my hands even with the heat packs I had in the mittens. I am sure we will see him again later this month.
      Have a great Wednesday.
      Please take care and stay safe!

    Good morning to you from my little corner of Massachusetts. It's chilly here too (about 25 for a high today), but there's no snow on the ground. Always nice to see Darrell around. I remember hearing awhile back that he'll be switching from the Zephyr to a more local route soon, but as long as he remains on this route, his appearances are a joy to see. Enjoy that coffee and enjoy the rest of your day, doing your best to keep warm.

      Good morning, Timothy; I thank you for dropping by and the comments. Your temps are in range with us and this big blob of artic air covering a lot of the US. It was nice to visit with Darrell again. I know he is looking to shift to a more local (regional) train. I do hope that works out for him.
      Anyway, have a great Wednesday back there.
      Please take care, stay warm, and safe!

    Great video Mike! Stay warm! I love Darrell's lapel pin. He brings a smile to my face every time I see him. So much positivity and energy. SR

      Good afternoon, Steve; I thank you for dropping by and the comments. I was very lucky to have him in the light today. Last time it was just in shadows. I knew he was coming thru yet blew it off i=until I heard his voice this morning. You are right. He does bring a smile when he steps from the train here. We should see him again before the end of the month.
      Hope that you have a great afternoon and evening.
      Please take care and stay safe!

      Good morning and thank you for tuning in today. I appreciate it. More snow coming to this location tomorrow, or so the weather guessers are spouting. I used to work in this sort of weather and not think much about it. Now, bring on the coffee! What Darrell handed me was gone before the PU left the parking area.
      Anyway, have a great Wednesday.
      Please take care, stay warm, and safe!

      Good morning, David; Thank you for dropping by along with the comments. The sun is really shining but isn't giving much warmth right now. We have made it to 5 F. at 1006.
      Hope that you have a great Wednesday up there.
      Plese take care, stay warm, and safe!

    My best to you this morning. The dark mornings always are brighter when Mr. Darrell shows up. Cold here at night but gets up to 50° in the day. Hope that coffee gives you some momentary warmth. Stay safe, be careful and make sure the thermostat is turned up!

    • @Mikeinmorgan
      @Mikeinmorgan  18 годин тому

      Good morning, Jim; I thank you for stopping by along with the comments. That coffee helped the fingers warm up before it helped warm up the innards. LOL! There was just a hint of sunrise in the eastern sky but was brightened a lot with that visit from Darrell. We won't make freezing here today. More snow tomorrow. With the moisture content so low we need another 5 inches or so to get close to .25 inch of moisture. Bring it on. LOL!
      That coffee was the right thing this morning. It was followed by a bunch more. Now, I am paying for that. LOL!
      Have a great Wednesday back there.
      Please take care, stay warm, and safe!

    Hi Mike! It was a fun trip over the hill to Denver to attend the Broncos game this past weekend on the Zephyr abet a "slightly late" #5 returning on Monday. We have not had to break out the snow shovel once this season in Grand Junction yet. Stay warm!

    • @Mikeinmorgan
      @Mikeinmorgan  16 годин тому +1

      Good afternoon and thank you for dialing in as well as the comments. Nice to read that your trip over was a good one with the home team winning in a blowout. Hope the wait wasn't too boring at DUS. I am just happy to have some cover on the ground out here even though it is that powder snow. I hope that you get some moisture over there.
      Have a great Wednesday afternoon and evening.
      Please take care and stay safe!

      Good morning, Gerald; Thanks for tuning in and the comments. It was on the verge of being really cold this morning. Then Darrell appeared. That would have been enough, but the coffee was an added bonus today. We may reach 22 f. here today. Denver is hogging all the warmth up there. LOL!
      Hope that the PT goes well. Please take care, stay warm, and safe!

    Mike I’ll take the cold any day over the fires they’re having in Southern California 🔥🔥😢

    • @Mikeinmorgan
      @Mikeinmorgan  18 годин тому

      agree wholeheartedly with that! We saw similar situation along the front range just north of Denver proper a few years back. That fire raced thru several communities making cinders out of a lot of area.

    Good morning Mike from 26 mid Tenn this cloudy morning. Gonna set us up little warmer til Friday 3-5 inches snow mid Tenn. Winter/ January is here! But your zero is worse as you well know. Stay warm, protect those exposed areas, nose, fingers,ears. Is Zazzys reopened yet for your guys?

    • @Mikeinmorgan
      @Mikeinmorgan  18 годин тому

      Good morning, Ben; Thank you for stopping by and the comments. You are kinda BRRR back there. We may see that temp today, but I am not counting on it. More snow tonight into tomorrow. You are correct in winter is here at last. Yep. Zazzy's opened again on last Monday with the usual regulars and staff. Makes for a nice part of the day.
      The fingers did get a bit cold this morning but the coffee from Darrell really helped warm them up as well as the rest of me.
      Hope that you have a great Wednesday back there.
      Please take care, stay warm, and safe!
