It's been a long time boys...
I made some progress since we last talked. I ripped up all the track and structures and started on plaster and paint. In fact I got all my plaster cloth work done!
But, the test did come out positive and I started getting excited. Then the car broke down for the fourth time in three months... and with warranty coming up in a month it was time to get rid of her and get into something new. So the '07 Ford Focus was traded in on an '08 Volkswagen Jetta GLI. A lot of stuff came outa the focus (stereo stuff) and was put in the train room until it was sold off.
It was around this time that our second month of pregnancy started, so I haven't touched the layout at all...
a month later we miscarried. I haven't been in the room since.
I'll be going in this weekend to dust off the cobwebs and see where I left off. Moneys tight right now since I just had to buy a new furnace too. So I'm not sure what I can do in the mean time... but I think its time to start looking at this again.
I'm also thinking of doing a much simpler HO route with the land forms/benchwork already constructed. Would need very little alterations to work out.
