I will let the pictures do the talking, although I will say if you have the bandwidth to open the second movie on the top of the first page of pictures it is well worth it. It shows our amusement park in action which is the only way to do it (...) (22 years ago, 18-Nov-02, to lugnet.org.us.nelug, lugnet.announce, lugnet.trains.org, lugnet.town) !!

I do have four trees that I plan to "plant" in front of the chateau; I just didn't include them in the pics. Pics of (...)
