It's me again.

 

Some progress on the basements. Pretty much finished with the furnace. The sloppy mortar work is intentional. (I make no such disclaimer for the

rest of the work.   ).

Added the stairs and the floor joist to the ceiling.

Mighty good Vulcan, realistic as it gets including the washboard.

 

Ps:

Oldtime Masons call those um... er joints, "raised strike joints".

 

Not much new on my corner work. Cut some logs and made a sawdust pile for the Sawmill and, in the other corner, received one of the Kober buildings assembled by Joe Fauty of Model Structures for use on my much compressed textile mill site. Now gotta saw some lumber.

Great work all.  Such gifted talent is alway great. The fact it is shared is even more special. 

SIRT (Steve), I spent some time on your Kodak website this morning, Construction section.  A real wealth of knowledge and technique. Thank you very much for taking the time to picture and post all that work.     

Montour SW9s this week. 

Thanks

Mike

Dave, I really enjoyed the video.  Your layout is amazing.

 

Alex, speaking of amazing layouts.  Wow, I love the harbor scene.

 

SIRT, great job.  The weathering is top notch all the way around.  Great work!

 

Alan, very creative scenes.

 

Thanks everyone!

Thanks very much Jim for the nice comment's

A few photos of the whistle stop structure I recently completed. It's the OGR kit with extended walls. A little scenery around the bottom and it's done. If you read the sign, you'll see a word that most people would think doesn't belong there. In New England, tonic has meant the same thing as soda, pop, and cola does in other areas. It's not as common to hear it any more, but in the 1950's it was as common as finding a penny in your pocket change.

You would be happy to know there is such a restaurant near Cleredon, Vermont. Kind of a special eating place not too far from the Long Trail (Applachian Trail) in Southern Vermont. Frequented by a lot of through hikers.  Not uncommon to see hikers eat two of three meals at one time.

 
We shared breakfast, that morning, early July 2005, with an interesting young man and an old blonde lab retriever whose name was Dune.  Why is your dog named Dune?  Everyone has a dog named Sandy. 
It was politely suggest we eat outside on the deck.
