Actually this weekend didn’t turn out half bad. We took the kids for the day down to Wildwood Crest, NJ for some sand and surf. The water was cold but it was still nice to take a dip in the ocean. It did not seem to bother the kids. I got 2 pounds of fudge and a bunch of saltwater taffies to keep us busy for a day or two. We also managed to get the biweekly shopping run in without incident.
I did some work on the garden railroad. I started screwing some of the track together. When we were at the pet store I found some aquarium stone that will make a good ballast. The only problem is the price per bag and how many bags I will need. On the layout I colored the wing wall, the rock face, and the old stone arch bridge. I still have some washes to apply to the wing wall and bridge. I am about half done the coloring of the rock face.
