Good morning.
Tom, those toy chests look wonderful. They are a lot of work.
I made toy boxes, beds, rocking horses, rocking chairs and many items I can't even remember for my grand kids 30 years ago. Only several items survive owned by my only daughters daughter. I do have video of all of it and they enjoyed them but they for the most part got broken and destroyed over the years.
It's cloudy here and unlikely for any sun to shine today.
I have been trying to get my BLI centipedes to quit stalling. 8 wheel pick up on each locomotive yet they still lose power. the problem is the wipers are not springy enough to maintain contact with the wheels so I am going to have to remove the trucks and devise something that works. The trucks are rigid so the axles have enough slop to slide away from the wipers.
More work on the trains today.
I see METV is going to run cartoons on Saturday morning beginning Jan. 2. I will finally have some educational programs to watch on Saturday morning.
