Just kidding, I already know that even though I’ve been away awhile. It will be good catching back up and seeing the new posts from everyone.
So a quick update.... After traveling for Omnitrax for awhile Im back home at the ATN running trains. Still modeling but layout work has stopped. Rodents and the elements had the layout a constant repair project, so until I can redo the garage or move the layout indoors to some climate controlled room Im not going to waste money on it. I have many ideas on how to proceed, so we will see what happens. I visited Mike Sabias awewsome layout and Todd Treasters work of art as well as a few other and got my wheels turning LOL Ive also started some HO modeling due to eyesight but no layout yet with them either. Lets face it..... theres just some amazing models out there right now. Health wise things are great. At 54 Ive dropped over 70 pounds and hit the gym 6 days a week and Im in the best shape I think Ive ever been in. May 8th of this year I got married and its been a blessing with her. If youve seen me on FB you know she keeps a smile on my face. So, thats about all thats been going on and Im glad to be back and see everyone again.
Welcome back! It's gotta be hard to visit a layout as incredible as the ones you listed and come home to your own with major repairs required. Climate controlled room is the way to go, if you have the space.
welcome back! Keep after it and get that layout moved indoors. You will like not competing with rodents for track time much better!
Congrats on the nuptials, and the wife and I are considering building a burrowing owl habitat in our front yard, away from Thanos, the Destroyer of Left Shoes.
