Thank you for all these great photos that are being posted.

I've visited the F&SM a few times now and each visit leaves me longing for more. The first couple of visits your mind is trying to comprehend what is in front of you.

It's as though you don't won't to be intrusive by spending too much time admiring the layout but at the same time your trying to absorb as much of the detail as you can.

That's why these photos are just wonderful. Plenty of time to admire the detail that you missed on previous visits and see what a tremendous job George has done.

Thank you all for sharing these fantastic photos of what is truly a labor of love for George Sellios.

At this point let's take a look at an overview shot of Franklin.  In the center of this photograph at the top of hill is The Grocers Warehouse which is the next structure we will take a look at.

This thread is killing me. I can't help but stare at each new one.    The F&SM is like a quarter acre of "Best in Shows".

Cuse,
              Lol, that's too funny!, but you're right! It's sick isn't it.  Funny thing is, George and I every month see people come to visit with camera's, yet, camera's just don't do it full justice...  One must see this insanity in person.  Thanx Thom...

I have been getting a number of emails from folks thanking us for the pictures. I always tell them - if at all possible see this layout in person. The first 5 or 6 times I visited where before cameras were allowed, and I saw more. So this past trip I put the cameras away and spent four hours absorbing - the pictures in my mind are the best.

As we move down the hill the first structure is Alfalfa Industries.

This is what I like about George's style: that building on top of the Zecharia & Nephew is so over the top! All the stuff around the building means a guy would be walking near the edge of the roof to get around! The world pre- OSHA!  I love things like this on the FSM!

Thanks to you guys I won't need to take photo's when I finally get to visit the F&SM, I can just relax and enjoy.

Now if only there was a way to download all these photo's so I wouldn't have to go to the forum every time for reference.
