Hello fellas,
Its been awhile for some and even longer for others...havent been on in awhile. Who would have thought that teaching fourth grade would actually be work,lol. I love the new school. The admins are very supportive in everything that I want to do. They have even let me bring my snake in as a classroom pet. With a new school comes a new vision...here is what I have in mind this time. Our entire school is painted and centered around a medival theme...we are the Kingsbury Knights and the school is done up like a castle on the inside....I will have to take pictures to brag er I mean share with you guys. We have several options at the school for possible build sites. While I enjoy working with the mayewood kids in HO scale...and still have contact with that group...I was thinking about getting the entire school involved from K-5. Having said that Im thinking about doing an outside layout in G scale. I was thinking an engine and a couple cars would get things started nicely. We have tons of room at our school and the principal is a guy who would just die to find some constructive use for it. We have a court yard that would be suitable but the front of the school is landscaped and we could include the layout as part of the landscape or build an entire new site near the back. If we did it up front then every visitor would have the oppurtunity of seeing the trains run and would be a focal point for the school. I figure the kids especially the little ones would have an easier time contributing if the scale were larger. Im open to suggestions and eager to start on another project that uses trains to change the lives of little ones. Thanks for the support I have always recieved from the group....you truly are an awsome bunch of guys.
