Hi guys,
I still feel like a newbie though I have a few posts under my belt. I thought I'd update you all in what is new and going on with my life. I got back into this hobby this spring with hopes of a layout being built. Those plans have been delayed. In May I found out that I have to have major surgery.
That brings me to today, next week I fly to Seattle for my surgery on Wednesday. Doctor is telling me I'll be in the hospital for 2 months recovering.
Layout wise I have bought the plywood, power supply(DCC), two engines, my old rolling stock from years ago bought back and new rolling stock and a few buidings. So I am geared up once I am able to get going on it.
I have also been buying some stuff for on the walls of my train room such as menus, ticket stubs and such. I am even looking at buying a
1 1/2 scale nose to mount above the bench work in a corner.
With even more news coming from my wife that I can start looking into taking our hobby outside with a garden layout next year so I am looking into that while I wait to go next week. I have found a working crossing tree"atleast that is what I always called them" that stands 6 ft tall. That I will be buying and installing in 08.
Well that is all for now.

He is coming along and is in a regular room now. He is back on his feet and walking a bit. The puter I am typeing on is the nurse one that patients can use but he can't get over to it yet. He will write more when he is able to get on-line.
