I am going to repost one of my own pictures with some notes I didn't see until much later.
The blue circle is the award my Lemons team earned for most heroic fix. It was my inspriation to fix the silly thing, so they gave the trophy to me.
The red circle is the shadowboard Tunawife made after GRM bought me leaf springs for the truck. Details, pictures, and the magazine article are in there.

We found a hiking spot near Atlanta after the COVID test and before the surgery.

These guys are not delighted that they have to do math together.
I have a fiddle for baby mtn. I need to go get that set up in a shop, and learn how to play it a little bit while she's still a baby.

Music is great! I am learning the guitar here myself lately.

Here is Tunakid 3 finished with cursive. He's very good at it despite tons of delayed motor control stuff.

This is the finished-ish train table. It's square and level and pretty solid. He's going to save up over time to get better landscape, but for now Legos will do.

I'm on the phone with dear old Gramps right now. I'm holding back some tears, but let's do some more pics.
This is Tunakid 1, through a screen, through a window. Why? He's shoveling the deck for Gramps when we were there for the funeral.
The following posted without comment, from their last anniversary.

And something a bit happier, playing with this slack line thing in the backyard.

Me, #2 and #4 enjoying the view.
These pics are great. Makes me miss this age with my kid, who turned 19 on Saturday.

Oh man, hit me up. I started a railroad just before COVID hit, so I've done a TON of landscaping largely with supplies at hand. I can give you all sorts of projects starting at $0.00. EDIT: Also, did you guys use Kato track or Bachman's EZ track? If it's EZ track, I might be able to send you a bunch of it we aren't using.

In reply to kazoospec :
Dude it's kato ez track!
Also he is upset because he just bought another kato set to go with it that doesn't seem compatible, so you can save the day! Send me an email bkb 001 at Gmail
Thanks!!!!
Sent you an email, let me know if you get it. We'll get the kid squared away one way or another!
