Thank you. I grew up in a house on a hill with retaining walls in the front and that was my inspiration for the scene. Someday, I might try to model my boyhood home but I'll have to either scratchbuild it or become President and then maybe one of the kit makers will come out with one like they've done for Ike and Reagan.
