I was able to removed the concrete slab for the building without any damage. However, I'm planning on making a new one, just wanted to see if I could do it.I did decide to not use brick piers in place of the concrete slab.
 I removed the rest of the detail parts and will add much more to the new yard. Done for now.

I used a large eye dropper and added some warm clear water to the scenery area to be removed. I let it stand for about 30 minutes and used a 1 1/4" putty knife to remove the wet scenery. Some stubborn spots remained so I added more water to those areas. Continued -

Morning Mark and others,
I'll be pressure washing the pool deck this morning and will probably take the rest of the day to recovery.
The SBG guy, ACL1504, Cuse, Reading Bob, Greg DeMayo and PRR Modeler, met here yesterday and got caught up on the the layout and other stuff we've missed for the past 18 months.
Lunch followed at Del Dios with more BSing. A great day all in all.
Have a great day ya'll.
