Fall Update 2026:

So I think I have decided to do quarterly updates to the page granted that our families are busy and growing. So... Making time to create a new post sometimes seems to be few and far in-between but Trust me we have been making progress. So I will call this the Fall update and create a new update around Christmas or the New Year. I do really want to thank the page for all of your support and patience between updates. So here we go! Please click on the first picture and swipe left. Each photo will come with it's own caption.

Wow! I cant believe it's been nearly 10 months since my last post! It goes to show life has been busy outside of the model train world, but I promise you we've been busy working on the layout. We've mostly been getting the electrical done correctly and installing fascia. Here's the progress we've made in the last few months! Also, on a side note, I've been pursuing my passion in bowling. I'm a scratch bowler and have embarked on my journey to becoming a professional bowler. I make my rookie debut on the Northwest Regional Professional Bowlers Tour in May and took 9th in a very tough and competitive local Masters tournament. Training for the tour has taken a ton of time, so please forgive me for not posting about the layout as often as I normally do! Anyway, Happy Model Railroading!
