Tomorrow I'll make a visit to the local lumbar joint and purchase several more 1x4's. I'll let them lay flat in the man cave for a few days. I like to give the lumber somr time to adjust to the climate in the room before I start cutting and screwing.

Will be a straight shot then from Richmond to Scranton. Damn yankees don't know jack about bar-b-cue.
I'm afraid he's right.  There used to be some good local BBQ places in Northern VA, but at least all the ones out by me (western Fairfax/eastern Loudon) have all closed.
That being said, obviously the champion BBQ team that Dave Frary is part of comes from Bahstun.

Not so, oh misplaced Yankee.
Dave Frary harkens from Bahnstable, MA, no where neah a suburb of Bahstun. Bahnstable is down Cape Cod. Cape Codders DO NOT think of themselves as Bahstonians. In fact, they'd blanch at the accusation and will probably rip the Cape Cod Tunnel Pass bumper stickah from your vehicle. Unless you've made prior arrangements, I doubt you could drive up to Dave's at random and enjoy a bah-b-cue meal.
There is NO good bah-b-cue in the Bahstan area.
Working on my second million. I gave up on the first.

So-o-o where are you? Some of us are waiting patiently to see your next layout pictures!!! On another matter, the box that I got from the post Office was too small to mail the bridge. I am searching for another one that will keep it safe during the journey from Arizona to Florida. Of course, you are probably getting ready for your drive North. I hope the snow melts and the temperature turns warmer or there will be two Florida looking for heat. Keep up the great work.

This is a test picture with the Judge's camera.

I was showing the Judge how to upload photos with his camera so you saw one photo of the new construction. Here are the other photos. This is how far I've come in the last week. Very slow progress this time around.

In this next photo you can see the temporary location of my command station. I'm moving it in the next week to the other end of the layout. I'll explain all the logistics and why later.

Marty,

Sometimes I wish I didn't have this much space as life in the layout room would be much simpliar. Then, I look at all the space and the number of kits to build and I'm thankful I have this much space. I'm very fortunate to have this much space and I want to make the most of it.
Thanks Marty for following along.

If Ralphie was nice, I'll bet that Jimmy would let him bring his calculator and use a
corner of his table!!
