My mother doesn't really like the idea, my father loves it and my girlfriend thinks it's very very cool. She herself is into modeling, just into model houses, who knows, one day, she might be the one making the buildings for my layout [8D] To each their thing, but when it comes to model trains or modeling in general, I think it's just a stereotype and this same stereotype is what drives many women away from the hobby. I think that's wonderful that you want to get into this hobby. Just one word of advice, buy the trains because you like them, and don't consider them an investment in terms of dollar value. They are not that kind of investment. There is a lot of value in this hobby, but it comes from the time you spend learning facts and skills, and making things. Oh and watch out, I think a lot of the guys here want dates.[swg] What I ment in investment was that I'm keeping my money for my studies now so I can get a good job and more money that I can use for trains later. And as for dates, read again, I'm taken [:D]

Hunter - When we met in January of 2000, you were just a 6 week old pup who walked his way into this heart of mine as the only runt in the litter who would come over to me. And today, I sit here and tell you I am sorry we had to put you down. It was the best thing for you and also the right thing to do. May you now rest in peace and comfort. Love, Dad. 8 June 2010
I love you and miss you Mom. Say hi to everyone up there for me. Rest in peace and comfort. Love, John. 29 March 2017
