Thank you all so much for your feedback and comments about Phil's magnificent layout (it was a bucket list item for me to see it in person) and my model train song. As far as I am concerned, you are all "master model railroaders," at least metaphorically, because you love what we all believe will always be the Greatest Hobby in the World.
When something difficult and challenging happens in our lives, we have a place to go for joy, happiness and sanctuary because, as I say in the song: "In my little world, I leave this troubled world behind."
