A beautifully wet summer Saturday here in the Northeast got my son and I back in the basement today. Here is some of what we did.
Some critters gnawed the end of an extension cord outside. Waste not want not... Cut out the ends and the affected area and used two of the three wires to power my buildings and accessories. I'm using it like a bus and taping the buildings into it with terminal strips. We added some street lights too.
Darn... Forgot to remove those two trees from the top of the hardware store before taking the picture.
Next we set up our row townhouses. We powered those the same way. They do not come with bases and a sidewalk. Last time I was in Lowes they had some tile back splash squares on clearance. I bought a 12x12 square for $5. It has 144 tiles on it. We thought they would make a great sidewalk. My son glued every one in place and then wanted to create little front yards. It was his idea to have one with long overgrown grass. He wants to make a for sale sign for that property as if it has been vacant for some time.
We had a great day. Here's hoping for more rain again soon!!!
