Good morning folk

It is currently 68 and going up to 78.

It has been a couple of crazy days. My wife had a dentist appointment on Monday and a podiatrist yesterday which threw our schedules off.

I finished tacking down the last two curves on the “western half” of the layout basically meaning half of the double track main line is tacked down and wired. I did have a couple of curve pieces that didn’t stick and had to redo them. On the eastern half I had a depression where a couple of foam board pieces came together. I spackled the joint smooth and level which should eliminate the bouncing that was happening there which was causing uncoupling and derailing.

The wife and I are going to spend this weekend in Rehoboth Beach, DE, so we will be packing over the next couple of nights. I hope to begin gluing down the roadbed and adding feeders to the first curve on the “eastern side” of the layout.

I hope everybody has a good day.
