Well.....
So much for THAT!!!!
As I posted earlier I thought I was moving but have instead decided to make more money and stay where I am at!!!
Unfortunatly the layout had already started to be dismantled when the decision to stay was made. Instead of rebuilding the layout I decided to recycle some of it but build a much larger layout that goes all the way around the room. This will give me the ability to have continous running which my 2 year old son will appreciate.
I will still be modeling the SP&S but will be modeling the town of Bend Oregon which is the terminus of SP&S 5th Subdivision AKA the Oregon Trunk. Instead of modeling a fictious conection I will be using seletive compression and modeling the town as accuratly as possible.
In order to start on the new layout I first had to clean dog poop out of the backyard, yes you did not mis read that.
Let me explain myself a little...
In order to prep my room I had to remove a tall cabinet and bookshelf...
This would require moving all the boxes of my packed stuff into the storage room to make a path for the furniture...
The wife decided she wanted the bookshelf so I had to help her organize her hobby room to get the stuff to fit...
We then decided to move the cabinet up to the garage...
Needless to say the garage was a mess and needed to be cleaned...
The first thing to get cleaned in the garage was to move all the lawn furniture out to the backyard...
But before I could do that I had to clean up the backyard...which means picking up dog poop....
So now I have a clean backyard, clean garage, organized train room....NOW I can start on the new layout!!!!
