Greetings: I just think that those of us that have gotten involved with G scale were well aware from the very beginning, that the hobby is the way it is, compared to the other scales. Look at the toyish appearance of O and OO with that crazy 3 railed track. It's toyish because the track is not in anyway realistic to prototype. N and HO is modeled in an indoor controlled environment with enough space to provide reasonably talented people with the opportunity to create interesting vingnettes of railroad scenes and functionality. In G scale, most of us want to lend a little action to our weeds and flowers. If we can toss in a couple of autos and houses and the like then it will look like something. This year I had a great time weeding, pruning down dwarf alberta spruce and dwarf boxwood to look like mini trees. I even took some type of weeds and bonzaied them into trees. The clover and some other type of weed looks like bushes. I don't even care what the name is because to me its a bush. My daughter , (design consultant 11yrs old.) and I spent the good part of last saturday building a trackside shanty out of wood from fruit crate wood(good stuff if you can get one). We had a great time, and it looks good too. I bet not many indoor guys let there 11yr olds consult for them. Perhaps another G scale catagory for this forum should be started. With the title being "Fine Scale Garden" or just "Fine Scale" That way they can all get together and cry on each others shoulders about how bad it is. Keeping my steam up', Pete
