FJ and G--


You and BB are welcome anytime, especially now would be good as the rabbits will eat anything now that the snow has accumulated, last year they ate through an electrical line that is of low current that provides outside lighting. After one big snow storm last year they and the deer also ate several new bushes, no spring prunning was needed. We had to say goodbye last year to our beloved 12 year old German Shepherd, I didn't realize what a great job he did keeping the animals away. I knew he did a spectacular job of keeping people in their cars but it didn't take the deer long to figure out he was gone. I sure miss him.

PS--If you come in the spring bring lots of tic repellent, I normally would pull two off of him everyday if he got into the heavy timber.

San Diego is also the home of a toy train company that get no mention here because they don't advertize in toy train magazines and they make monorails but the kids are buying them and they are sold at Toys are Us.

Yes I am talking of Rokenbok.

Seeing all these responses from the Maryland area brings back a lot of fond memories. As a youngster, until about the fourth grade, we lived in the Bladensburg area. In the summer we spent a lot of weekends at a place called Popes Creek(?), all the parents chowing down on crab and most of the kids out on the docks trying to fish with the scraps. Did a lot of crabbing at nite too off the docks where the pilings had a light on them, a lot of fun unless one of them got a hold of you with their claws. [^]

Retired from Westchester Co. N.Y. in 1996. Live in Mt. Pleasant, SC. Hot and humid in the summer but beautiful most of the year. The reason we don't have basements is because we live in the Lowcountry. Water would be a huge problem with a basement. Am building my first layout on a 4x8 in the garage. Will be working on a pulley system to hault it up for storage. Any suggestions?

Austin is the capitol of Texas, about a 3 hour drive south of Dallas, 1 hour drive north of San Antonio on I-35. It should show up on your maps. The PBS music show "Austin City Limits" is taped here, Lance Armstrong is a pretty well known resident, and several famous musicians are from around here. Yes, we cut grass here year 'round...(wink) and we have 4 seasons, although fall, winter, and spring are fairly short.

I live in Southern California but since I've retired I live primarily on the road watching trains and filming famous train sites. I've been to most sites within 2000 miles from my home. Since I live very close to the Tehachapi Mountains, Cajon, Beaumont Hill, Trona, and Barstow I get to spend a lot of time seeing the Union Pacific and BNSF, albeit I'm a Southern Pacific die hard. Luckily all it takes for me to hit the road is for a friend to say, "let's go!". I think my wife is glad I go so she won't have to listen to train this and train that.........but she's cool about me traveling.

A very lucky train enthusiast

I live near Plymouth in the UK, on the edge of Dartmoor. Plymouth is known for Sir Frances Drake and the Mayflower Steps, the leaving point for the New World in 1620 by the Pilgrim Fathers. I've always been mad about toy trains and wish we had the range of products over here that you are blessed with. Still, at least the internet allows me to indulge in some great products from Lionel.
