Just a quick update.....the grandkids, Anthony and Aiden were visiting today and got to help out on the benchwork. Aiden (age 7) drilled the pilot holes while Anthony (age 10) put the screws in. They really enjoyed getting on top of the bench and helping out!
My wife Ellen had a surprise for them. She bought each of them an engineer's cap and red neckerchief!! They even had their names on them..."Aiden" and "Tito" (Anthony in Spanish) Of course, they had to wear the neckerchiefs around their faces like bandits!
After doing some work I put out a few straight pieces of track and let them have some fun running a couple of trains!!
Here are a few pictures that captured the fun we had today!!
