Hey, Alex, I know I have told you before, but that is one heck of a cool layout.

Laz. That backstop reminds me of the one we had as kids on the field we played at. The only difference is we had a tree behind pitchers mound.
The little league practice field AND the playin field are right by the local UP main. Needless to say that I never missed an opertunity to railfan when my little brothers were in little leage.
'85 - '87, Kingshighway store, Rolla, MO. I remember "inventing" the Double Quarter Cheeseburger with "old" sandwhiches.
Hey, I had to make money while finishing up my undergrad work, ya know!
Another question about those scale Big Macs: where the pickles touching one another??
Doug Murphy 'We few, we happy few, we band of brothers...' Henry V.
Thanks! They got the seeds right, but the 1950's didn't have Big Macs, did they???!!! Two all beef patties, special sauce, lettuce, cheese, pickles, onions on a sesame seed bun came out in the 1970's, I think! BTW - if you know the tune that goes with that sentence, you win a free Big Mac at the Arnold McDonalds (any of the 3 in town), just swing by and pick me up and I'll buy for us both! .
RIP Chewy - best dog I ever had.

Jim,
That's just about the most clever one-liner I've seen in a long time. It sneaks up on ya.
What I want to know is, Do they have the right number of sesame seeds on the buns for the dreaded sesame seed counters?
Great pics everyone! Marty, you are the king of computer editing!
Back from a visit to Mainstreet, still kinda hungry because those "O" scale Big Mac's aren't very filling.

Marty - WOW - I can feel the wind coming off that beauty! Would love to be able to get that background on my layout! Amazing!

Another Photo Manip.
Great Pictures everyone!
Frank:
I love the 681. I had a 682 when I was a kid. I traded the train set in 1990 for a bunch of LGB stuff. While I love my LGB trains. I wish I still had that set...

Everyone,Awesome photos this week! Lisa - newbie... yeah right! You've got years of experience behind those blue eyes! LOL! Simply beautiful scenes! I think we found your calling, you could travel around the US doing all the scenery for us! LOL!Laz,Love the baseball field... brings back some very fond memories of the ol' chaps and I getting about 3 innings in before someone would throw a fit and a fight would break out... come to think of it that happened playing most sports... LOL! Also playing 'ghost runner' with my father in the front yard... Marty,Awesome night scenes!Memory is failing me on who else has posted... grrr... right hand is really getting numb...Brent
Good-bye Mr Spaulding . . .
That's a home run Marty - great photo.
Really great pictures this week. Love seeing what everyone is doing. Always impressive to see the different styles and themes.
Thanks to all for your kind comments on my layout. This is the one I started last year when the "bug" bit me. Not much track on this one, just an oval with a diagonal on a 4x8. Started it before I had any magazines or had discovered this forum. Just wanted to do a rural farm scene, which I see plenty of around here. Kind of learned on my on with a lot of experimenting, mistakes and a lot of "do-overs." Guess it's OK for my first try.
DENNIS: Thanks for the compliments. It's the new layout that has me struggling. The old one has a CW-80 with one power connection to the track and two 3-switch terminal boards for accessories (just lights for the house, barn, campfire, etc.) The new one with feeder wires, TPC, TMCC is what's been driving me crazy. But, I'm getting there. Dewey T has been a God-send to me. Good luck getting your wife involved - can't get my husband to do any more than the benchwork and helping with the wiring. I do catch him looking around to see what I've done though.
Here's a pic of part of the new one - painted the mountains on the garage wall - thought David was gonna have a hissy fit (in case you Nawtheners don't know what that is, email me and I'll try to explain it)- I reminded him that it was only paint and it was cheaper than buying something to paint on like the first one - My backgrounds on it are on luan boards that slip in front of a frame. I'm only 5'2" (eyes of blue......oh no - another song!!) so I can take them out to reach stuff.
Have a good week everyone!
Fantastic job everyone. Lisa, you had me fooled. I thought you were struggling along like so many of us and just barely getting going. It seems that you are well along in your railroad empire. It looks great! I think I need to hook you and my wife up so that you can share your enthusiasm for trains and maybe it will rub off. Great work.

I am envious of Lisa's horse pasture, and wish my real yard and lawn looked as good.

Fifedog - Pond is full of bass and bream. Both guys have fish on the hook - just can't see from that angle. Water is deep - Guess it just wasn't a really good shot. Will try to do better next time.
Thanks, Frank53!
Nice pics everyone....
