G-Scale? No Sale!

My father has been interested in
trains, I'd guess, for his whole life.

After we said goodbye to my sister,
we went to see a set up my cousin
had told Dad about, at the Maine Mall.

We were part way there, anyway.

That's Dad, in red, on the left.

They had all kinds of scenarios set up.

There was outdoor Christmas tree
decorating,

a waterfall with so much to look at
arranged around it

and even a lumber operation.
(very Maine)

My Dad spent most of his time
looking over a small (real)
electric car that was on display.

The trains were G-scale.
Dad likes HO scale.
He was not very interested
in G-scale.

Our subsequent visit to
a Goodwill store that is
normally out of our range
did a lot more for Dad.

Oh, well.  I loved it! :)

Soxy!

I am choosing to be silly
in response to the nasty
feeling that getting a big
bill and having my car
die in the same day has
attempted to give me. :)

Yay! Yay!

What a great attitude!

When I asked the driver's permission
to take this shot, she told me that this
is what her grandchildren call her.

Well, then!  :)
