GeoPeg, Really excellent and gratifying to read that from you, sir. I'm glad you liked what I have done.

And my Thanks, also, to the folks who sent me "Likes" for my posting here: PRRronbh; geysergazer; Arnold D. Cribari, and you.

There is another personal touch in the scene, too. It is something of a metaphorical figure, representing me, through time, making my way to my wife's childhood (and young adult) homeIMG_0482eded... as a jogger, which I used to be... sometimes actually passing by her house, in the past. You can spot the figure making its way along the street near the parked cars...IMG_5931x

"Like" is a gross understatement, Frank. I absolutely love this: your photos and comments are emotionally touching and splendid modeling. And, I totally relate to your post.

I never thought of putting myself in O Scale on my layout. Now, I will be on the hunt for myself. LOL.

I used to jog too, as a teenager through my late 40s, then it was golf for 7 to 8 years (played 3 times per week carrying my bag for 18 holes each time, and went to driving range and putting/chipping green to practice on the other days, getting my handicap down to 7), and now I walk athletically for 1 hour at a time, 3 or 4 times per week. It's like I never stopped going to gym class.

So, I may go on the hunt for O Scale joggers like those you have, Frank, and maybe golfers and walkers.  

It's fun being on the hunt for all these O scale things that are meaningful to us.

When it comes to figures, I find that Arttista figures are among the best. Arnold
