The first day of autumn (fall) in the southern hemisphere and after my half day work at Manning Signs I returned home with the determination to start to build my new model railroad in the back garage (we have two garages, a double attached to the house and a single garage behind the house).
But first it had to be cleaned out so that at least a car could be stored in it. By shifting all the tools, fishing gear, books, magazines and model railway stuff to the front garage, it would no longer be able to store a car.
The hope is that once the layout framework is up, much of this can be returned to sit under the layout, but obviously models will take precedence over non model gear.
First out was the four shelves containing 80% of my modelling and photographic magazine collection, and then the stuff residing in the middle of the garage. By day's end I had walked several kilometres carrying boxes from one garage to the other, and at least the Honda CRV had a space for the night.
We have lived at this location for six years now (shifted in March 2004), so it has been six years since I lost my large 25' x 20' model railway room with huge storage ability. And I am not getting any younger so if I don't get this built now it will never happen!
