Good Morning All,

Today is Pearl Harbor day.

Thank's for opening and breakfast Rick. I forgot to mention what an excellent photo that was yesterday. Enjoy the birthday party today.

A little slow getting up this morning. The sky is gray this morning and it's forecast to rain more than 12 hours today! Still better than snow.

After chores I'll continue on detail painting. All I have left are 4 castings like workbench. MOH probably won't be home until evening.

I hope everyone has a good day.

Good Morning All,

Today for breakfast is coffee, cereal, bagels, yogurt, OJ, and soda.

Started the day with a walk at 72F and low humidity. Supposed to get into the 80's today. Yesterday I got about half of the 3-D Printed details done leaving about 40 oil drums to do.

Today I hope to complete the details. It's oh so tedious but they bring a scene to life.

Not much else going on. The weather looks miserable up to the north of us.

I hope everyone has a good day.

Got up around 0530 expecting MOH to be gone but she was sleeping on the coach. I did a couple of chores upstairs, washed sheets, fed the animals, and put the 2 skunks going to see the vet in their traveling crates. MOH still hasn't moved. :o

Yesterday, although it was a bit of a slog I got a base coat of paint on all of the 3-D printed parts. Working on them will continue for several more days.

Not much else happening this way.

I hope everyone has a good day.

Good Morning All,

Today for breakfast is coffee, homemade donuts, OJ, and soda.

Started out the day with a walk at 56F under a full moon. Yesterday I painted and weathered the 2 concrete docks, and blackened the remaining metal detail parts.

Today after chores I started painting and weathering the 3-D printed details. The great thing about SW kits is the amount of details and that's also the bad thing when it comes time for working on the details.

That's enough blabbing today.

I hope everyone has a good day.

Good Morning All,

Thanks for opening and breakfast Larry.

I feel a little better today but still not at normal yet. I've completed today's chores and getting ready to head to the workbench to paint and weather 2 concrete freight docks.

Nothing else happening.

I hope everyone has a good day.

Condolences on the loss of your cousin Tom.

Good Morning All,

Thanks for opening and breakfast Rick. Enjoy your rest day.

I was supposed to take a walk this morning but have caught the family crud from MOH. :-\ I don't know if anything will be accomplished today other than taking it easy.

Oh well, I'm still on the green side of the grass.

I hope everyone has a good day.

Rick that's a NP I've actually been to. Went with son when he was young in the 80's. He was a Dino fanatic.

Morning All,

Thank you for following along and your kind words Tom, Rich, Larry, Bob, Mike, Rick, Bernd, and Jerry.

This is a short update. I've added the swing beam crane and chimney to the foundry.
