Thanks for the comments Rick, Mike, Kyle and Philip.

Rick, not sure whats happening about the picture thing, that has happened to me to, I just hit refresh and then they show up.

Kyle, it a 8 month business trip.  The project I got assigned to is in Jacksonville Florida.  I'll be bringing my N scale modules with me so I'll be continuing that saga when I get down there.

Looks great Ron.  really like the way you do the track work.  I don't think I would ever have the patience but you sure make it look easy.

Ron, strikes me as about 3 months too late to start an assignment in Florida :-)  Being there mid-summer won't be pleasant.

Thanks Jerry, I make it look easy cause I've had way to much practice ;D .  I know hand laid track is not for everyone, but it is one part of the hobby that I really enjoy.

Dave, unfortunately I don't get to dictate starting time of a project, I'm guessing AC is a must.

Time for another update.  This one is so small that it doesn't even get a number.  ;)

Managed to get the ties for the staging yard installed.  Once the glues dries it will be time for the next step.
