Summer pictures
Posted by SNOWSHOE on Saturday, July 12, 2008 3:25 PM

I started playing around with different shots of my layout.  Mainly want to find the good spots and also where I might need to fill in the background with more plants/trees so I can hide some of the background like my deck etc...  The plants are slowly filling in, still have a lot of bare spots, eventually the ground cover will take over.  Here are a few shots so far.  I still have a lot of detail to add like some structres, weathering the rolling stock and I still have to add my siding and mine.  All planned winter projects.
