And it's nice to meet you here.

I'm glad you all liked my article!

Actually I learned a thing or two from the article.  Great job for him and the writer.

I was very impressed as well. Good to see some more kids like in the hobby!

When I first started reading the article, I thought he'd found the best way, have the kids do it. It was only later I realized he was the kid.

Hi there,

I too was impressed with what I saw and read. It was hilarious to see those kids working away. The caption under the photo called them "workers"...awesome....more kids need this kind of inspiration. I believe the next generation of GRR's can bring a whole new look to modeling in the great outdoors. Maybe this will inspire more to spend less time on the computer, and more time pursuing our awesome hobby. Later eh...Brian.

I have met him. He belongs to my GRR club. He is 2 grades lower than I am, but is very understanding of things dealing with GRRs.

Rene:

You seem to be a board moderator or some sort of important person. I got a survey from GR last night/night before re the April issue. I'm a new subscriber and haven't received the magazine, yet. I answered the survey based on my other two issues I'd bought at a train show, and told them so, plus the above. Should I be patient or should I bug 'em?

Nice to see someone who as a very grown up attitude to life, I wish in this day and age that there could be a lot more like him  Well done keep up the good work

[Ray Dunakin]

Very impressive, well-written article for one so young!

[cacole]

Yes, I've already read that article and must say that he's a very talented young man.

[vsmith]

Send him on over, he can do the retaining walls for my twisted layout!

I've never seen those retainer blocks here, all we get are the pie shaped ones.

[Tom The Brat]

Quite an industrious 8th grader. I'm impressed!

[Rene Schweitzer]

Those of you who get the magazine will see an article on retaining walls by a young author. He is in eighth grade and is an active hobbyist. We've put together a short article on what he's done:
