Thanks Robin and Chris.

If either of you make it up to Muskoka this summer, you will have to drop in.
I can take you to see the church as well as Muskoka Heritage Place and the famous Portage Flyer.

Here's a good one that could be easily modeled after the Walthers kit "Jim's Repair Shop" It also got me to thinking somehow of a good name for a paint store. ..

The Paint Can.

Better do the Amoco one fast!
Heard a commercial that says they were "bought out" by BP.

Nice subjects by the way. Got some cranks running in my nog'in.

That station is now a BP - they re-designed it a bit - so it looks a lot diferent now.. I'll try to get a pic of the "After building" since we have a "Before" up above

John uses colored pencils to color the brick. Floquil concrete for the foundation.

If you're looking for something different...

There is a water tower in Gaffney, South Carolina shaped and painted as a giant peach. I'm half tempted to try modeling it myself...let's see...what do I have around the house to make a peach???

Here's the link for the picture of this thing...

I thought this would be of interest to some of you who model the present or there about. The name is real and it is makes one wonder how it came to be. A strange name for a spice factory. Anyhow I am a sucker for “Orange” I just love those tanks.

 

[N Gauger]

Neat!! Yeah - that's an interesting name
