Morning all,

Happy Cinco De Mayo! 

Cooler today, headed to 61 F for a high. 

The second backdrop is up and looks OK.  I'll figure out which ones I want to order to finish the section and get that started.  Need to paint the rest of the top of the wall as well. 

It's the wife's birthday, so we'll be out for a late lunch/early dinner today, too.

Morning Jeff and others drifting in,

The Empire backdrops look great Jeff. I need to order more for my third level.

Have a great day everyone.

Tom

It's a bright sunny day in SE NH, heading to 79.  If it didn't get any warmer the rest of the year, I'd be happy with that.  

Wife felt up to it, so we went to the lunch meeting yesterday.  As a result, I didn't get down to the train room at all.  I'll head down in a bit, work on the exercise machine, then do some more pick-up/put-away.  Over the weekend, I ordered some 'wood' fencing from Woodland Scenics, that should arrive in a couple of days.  I'll use that to fence off the apple orchard.  

One problem I've found is that, with the bad lighting in that area, it's really hard to see where I've drilled a hole to plant a tree.  I need to think about that some more, before I start drilling holes for the orchard.
