Good evening folks
Over the last couple of weeks with all the storms that rolled through we have had some damage to repair. Our fence that separates the yard from the fishpond took a hit from the wind and one of the gate posts broke off at ground level. In addition, the arbor that spanned the walkway was knocked over. Luckily it suffered no damage, but I can’t put it back until the gate post is replaced. My wife ordered the gate post at Lowes so we will be picking it up tomorrow. I will need to paint it. I am hoping to get the old broken post out of the ground. Since I am working nights next week for a couple of days putting in the new post will have to wait until next weekend. We will need to make a run to the pharmacy and grocery store at some point over the weekend.
I am hoping to run some trains and make a video or two. I am thinking about my next project on the layout. I could work on the scenery around the Golden Valley Canning Co or the roadway and parking area at the coal dealer. I have track to weather and ballast. I also have a bunch of Accurail kits and structure kits to assemble.
At some point I need to start going through my railfan photos and organize and scan them.
I hope everybody has a good night.
