Last Thursday NBC10 in Philadelphia did the local weather "LIVE" from my backyard..
I recently finished my web page of the show. It includes photos and all video clips from the broadcast.. All 30+ folks who came here for the show had a SUPER time. This is your invite ..ENJOY..[8D]
WARNING! Do NOT try to view the videos if you use dial up..

You guys are TOO kind! [:I]
The Abbey Road thingie..
Yeah, yeah, yeah! I am A Beatle Freak. I try to make the garden railroad enjoyable for everyone..kids, woman, train guys..everyone. [:)] I set up little "This will make them laugh" scenes throughout the layout .. Yes, it does keep them here longer when I tell them to REALLY look for more stuff AND..... what happens, they are exposed to large scale longer than at other houses..[;)]
And I think the little whimsy works.
Matt.. Yes, it was the weather but, none the less I (we) got the word out.. In fact I received an email from NBC10 today and they are ......Well , you read it.
SNIP....by the way - - everyone at NBC loved your website and they are considering showing it on another backyard weather or maybe doing an NBC link to it
Hope you're having a great week
Amy
I'll keep you all posted to what happens..
Thanks again for the kudos..[:I][:)]
