just a quick hello. I'm on my fifth coffee this morning, and since I never made it to bed last night, even though I promised I would get some much needed sleep, I didn't because I was on the 'puter all nite long, but, yeah, the 'targetword kaka' that has been driving me nutty is GONE ! Yeah! Noah - sorry to learn of the damage to your layout, and 'doubly-sorry' for joking around about your ongoing water problem a couple of weeks ago when I had offered some info about moisture-proofing a basement. I feel like a dolt now, although I had no idea that the problem was as bad as it apparantly is. . . As someone else already said, now you'll have an opportunity to construct a better layout, because there is always room for improvement, and to alter something we did before that may not have worked out as we had originally planned. Hope you were able to salvage your rolling stock, structures and other expensive stuff. Anyway, got lots to do, and the day is marching right along. Several of the local woodworking tool suppliers are having Father's Day sales this week, and I can't pass them up, so its off to shopping this PM for some supplies and other stuff for the shop. Got all the old fencing removed and taken away this past weekend. Now I've got to put in new fencing, build a new two-tier'd deck, as well as build some retaining walls and rock gardens. I'm getting 18 tons of rock brought in and I'll be dry stacking it by hand. . .Yuk, but it will look good and keep my house from sliding down the hill. I posted a new topic on the forum this AM pertaining to kitbashing, and 'what was the most unusual kitbash you've ever done.' It could prove interesting to see and read what others have scrounged together out of their spare parts boxes. Hopefully the UP stuff has died down. I had written *** Davidson, "chief mucky-muck" at UP, to get their latest take on the licensing & royalties issue, and received a lengthy email back within two days from the individual responsible for administrating the program. I'm going to request their permission to share their reply with the forum. An interesting aside to that email is that UP is not charging the smaller model railroad concerns, and only the larger ones, two of which will not agree to a licensing program. I was unaware of UP's posture re: the impact on small model railroad suppliers, and applaud them for not hitting them w/ what could amount to a death sentence for their operations. Gotta go. Have a great day, and be safe. BILL
