Frank / Erieman, don't you just love the internet?
Folks expect to see amazing changes every time they sign on!  Kinda like "why isn't l'il Tommy finished with
his rebuild yet?"   Oh, yeah, he's just a persnickity old retired fart!!!!
They forget that this is a hobby and you proceed at your own pace and enjoyment! (Except when the wife
has other prioriites!!!)

But if we all proceeded at Gnatshop's pace, we wouldn't have anything to complain about!!!

John,

Thanks for the kind words. Progress is coming slowly. I'll be glad when all the trees, etc are done. Need one more structure in Little falls near the station and having a tough time deciding whether it is something i have built or need to build. Tough decision. Thanks for stopping by.

Thanks Chris,

I agree. Now I just have to make a pot full of trees to fill in the area and this scene will really pop. I hope to have this done by mid September. We are having a regional NMRA convention here in Scottsdale September 16 - 20th and I have the layout on tour. So-o-o much to do, so little time. Glad you like the scene and thanks for stopping by.

Taking a break from East End Market today. Needed supplies arrive tomorrow, so I decide to work on the layout. Been making bushes or the like. Filling in the town of Little Falls with background shrubbery. Still a long way to go, but accomplished quite a bit today. Here is pic 1.

Pic 2. You can see the ground foam bushes on the back of the canyon walls. This is a slow process. Did about 1 1/2 feet today. Where does the time fly? More tomorrow until the postman shows up, then it is back to East End Market. Enjoy the pic.
