you have a massive layout you could sit and twiddle thousands of trees,although after a while you feel like you have arthritis……perhaps just one or two

Yea that's the stuff. If that ia an example French house, it is much different than the German houses I have seen, which are all brick and stone and plastered (even new builds, at least as late as the early 2000s)

It's not your computer, new one or old one. It's the forum software. You have to turn BOLD off as soon as you hit the period. If you type any additional characters, it stays on until the end of the post.

Broken stuff. Seems my stuff only broke when my grandsons were operating it. They swore they were being careful. I spent a lot of time then looking elsewhere for the problem but never found it. I can only presume then that knobs just fall off controllers, edges of rolling stock cave in on their own, signals that were glued in place bend over on their own and small vehiclas on the layout just dissappear into thin air only to reappear later in my grandson's bedroom 35 miles away. No idea how it got there.

Afternoon All,
Ran some errands this morning. It was supposed to be in the low 40's this morning but at 0700 it was 52 F (cool but not 40). Today I cut out the new styrene road and parking lot. Note this parking lot will be at ground level. After that each piece got 3 coats each side with auto flat black primer. There is a cool breeze and very little humidity today so it was easy to do. I also painted the framework by the track.
Jaz- Very nice trees and scenes. The second picture would be perfect for a dead tree.
Louis- I hope your mouth feels better quickly.
Terry- Great layout shot.
Patrick- The building looks good. First generation diesels are great for turnout forgiveness.
Joe- Nice photos.
IB Ken- Thank you. My only attempt at tank car building was a Tichy tank car that ended in frustration and the garbage can for the car. Life is too short for them.
Jesse- The vast majority of lighting products that I buy are on Ebay from a Chinese firm called "We Honest". They have good products at a reasonable cost and quick delivery. I think they have a warehouse in the US but not sure. Their trees on the other hand:
.
Troy- You may have mentioned before but what kind of books do you write?
Willie- Great how to on the side frame repair.
DJ- Isn't it wonderful at times?
I hope everyone has a good night.

My first guess would've been... birds. Only because I've never seen dogs in trees.

The love on your post is not regards your comment on my modelling but on yours I am loving the back wall back scenestone face and greenery, plus doing it this early will make life so much easier for you long run.Afternoon All,

Good afternoon from the island of Maui that I call Paradise, regarding weather only. The weather is gorgeous, it is humid but the trade winds are always blowing so it feels great. No misters on the Lanai like there are on the patios in Arizona and our son in Austin. 77 here and we will not make the 83 that the weather app this morning said we’d have.
Housing, food and other normal everyday things here are expensive and somewhat in short supply. Island time is not a myth and the pace here is basically no pace at all. Getting a plumber is possible but on his/her time. I have written before that I can’t live here full time but it’s a great place to visit. Just not enough to keep busy unless you play golf daily as the brother does. I have been playing every other day. But, but the views, the beaches and the wonderful weather all seem to over rule the minor negatives. It is still a Paradise.
Modeling, none yet. But, I have taken all the modeling supplies I had sent here over to the new home site. I ordered materials to build a wall in the finished garage to create a train room for me. The HVAC guy will be here next week to put in the A/C units. Ordering insulation for the wall was a treat but the 2” polyfoam will be coming so the drywall on the new wall will only be installed on the inside until the insulation gets here.
All in all it’s a good time and my brother is one of the best hosts you will ever come across. I am able to use the IPadPro that I self avoided. Typing on the iPhone sucked so when I did post it was from a PC here at the house.
be safe, be well

Playing with the camera on the phone to change the pick on the avatar. So no sense wasting good train photos that didn't make the cut.
