Hev:

No I don't have a layout up right now, haven't had one up in about 2 to 3 years. mama said I WILL have one up this Christmas. Gee I wonder who you saw that you knew in my pictures?

Rogruth:

The Pa.Live Steamers are in Collegeville Pa. Its about 5 to 10 miles from my place here in Limerick. I have been a member for about 3 years now. It gives me something to do in the summer and its not that far away. It cost about 30 dollars a year to join for associates.

I have not seen many live steam "layouts" but that is really elaborate compared to the ones I have seen.

Yes it is and to think I lived about 5 to 10 miles away from it for 10 years before I found out about it.

Jon,

Great pictures of the B-17. It looks so pristine and "new".

I wonder how many are still around and flying?

Thanks for posting.

Many B-17s saw post-WWII action as transports, passenger craft, crop dusters, and water bombers. As a result, there are 15 B-17 Flying Fortresses still airworthy, plus a few other hulks that have a realistic chance of being restored.

That was my daughter's Coke in front of me.
I had me a whiskey just out of view. I had to keep making sure it was on the other side of the table from where the hobo was sittin'. Self-defense, is all.

Now Hev, he was ALREADY lit!
Hell, just look at the hobo. A guy coulda gotten drunk just smellin' his breath!
Good thing there wasn't a candle on the table, or I coulda had my moustache burnt off! :wink:

(That wuz me checking my camera after he just tried to take a drink out of 'er! :shock: )

:D :D :D
