Wow - good job, guys! The layout looks fantastic!
I do have one question, though...Shaun had two burnt buildings and the
layout shows one. We talked about using one in a construction scene, where
it is being knocked down. I was planning on building something for this. Is
this still included? There seems to be a number of spots where this can be
placed. Not the end of the world if it's not going to be there.
