Bill.....don't forget the SBG is waiting for that tree clinic from Kris.  ;)
She is working on it as she builds more trees. She only has the weekends, with her other duties it slows her down a little. She should be done by the time you get your new building up and layout started. By then you will be ready for scenery.

Riff-raff? Yes, I'm here and qualify. Tell Kris to take her time. It takes time for a master to show their work!

Yesterday Kris and Bill Cutler had the Saturday Butty Group over to view the new additions to the Pennsy! Kris had the house, er, I mean home decorated for Christmas. Breakfast snacks were also available. As Reading Bob mentioned on the morning thread they were very gracious hosts.

Kris has been busy planting new trees around Horseshoe Curve.



We even had a real derailment. I believe the Judge was at the throttle. You see, I can blame it all on the Judge as he isn't a member of the forum. He said he didn't know what to say! Well, speak up or get the blame your Honor.



Continued in a few.

This farm scene is one of my favorite areas on the Pennsy. There is a lot of action going on here.

The two houses in the middle of the photo are CCK kits by Jeff Grove. Reading Bob built these for the Pennsy. Just when I was taking the picture, the Judge popped up. Yes, it's his fault once again.



Bill installed working marker lights on the rear of his Cabeese. This really adds realism to the trains.

Here's another favorite scene of mine on the Pennsy. The Langford Lumber Co. is very busy place these days. Modesty prevents me from bloviating as to who may have built Langford Lumber.

By the way, take notice of the wonderful atmosphere surrounding this layout. The train room opens out to poolside crews' lounge. Absolutely beautiful place (other than the vicious dog)

Yep, Mr. Finley the dog will lick anyone to death!

Kris and I are glad that everyone had a good time, even Finlay! It is all ways great to get together with friends and enjoy the hobby. There is a lot of exchanging of ideas and stories. The derailment has been cleaned up, and there were no injuries. ;D ;D
