It is interesting to note Keith's sense of humor and he always manages to get in everything he wants to say in 3-4 lines consistently. [:D]

Jim,
Thanks for your reply and great information. It certainly seems easier than most methods I have been thinking of. I am sure I will have more questions as I begin this undertaking.

Hello All- Jim & Dave- You guys never knew this; I attended the George Burns College of Humor.[;)][:)] They taught Marxism ( Groucho style) & Mark Twain's Humor also. Boy! what a courseload![;)][:)][:P][:o)] Throw in some "Who's on First" & "If at first you don't succede, Laugh,Laugh,again" & Remember Bob Hope came from Cleveland also. So, it could be something in the water.[:D][:)] Actually, I think I got my humor gene from my Father's side of the family. He had a Cousin with a witty sense of humor who was up in his years & could really make you laugh real hard. We would be at a family picnic & he would say " Hey Everyone! Let's have a Race down this Hill. First one finished is the winner!" He is the type of person you would have to get to know first so that you knew where he was coming from. He was a swell guy & has been deceased for many years now. Miss him plenty as well as my father. Anyway. Jim, you sure have a fantastic layout Keep us up to date on any changes. Especially if the 800lb Bear is successful in halting shipments of Grits to the Nawth![;)][:D][:o)]

"800 lb bear on layout"

----------

Story to tell: may be a repeat...

About a year ago BB the beagle and I were walking in the woods during a full moon and a black bear appeared. I froze in my tracks.

When I first saw the bear, my first fear was for BB the beagle. I had seen a lot of Rin Tin Tin and Lassie shows and was fully expecting BB to step in between me and the bear to protect me or at least to distract the bear until I put some distance between it and me. It was only a half a second when I glanced down that I saw that white tail bobbing in the distance as she high tailed it back to the house.

When I got back home she gave me that "where have you been" look, if you know what I mean.

Jim, Great job I'm really impressed how fast track looks with all of the scenery. I think the Ogauge guy in the last picture is out of scale [:o)][:o)]
