You asked for it, you got it.

It was a wet one, yet there were a few brave souls. We left too early, by the time we were home and checked the radar we realized the rain was done. Oh well next year.

So, on to the photos.

Pic one is the track on the left is going up hill.

Now we are half way up the grade and it is the track furthest away.

I have turned around for the next shot. The track loops around on the top of the hill and comes back in the middle (running back through hill2 and is the right hand track in hill1).

This is the track heading back upleading into picture hill2 (the one with the steamer).

on this next picture you can see the return going back to the station some 500 feet away.

This is the same track from the other end on the right.

The station area is at the bottom of the last picture (above).

11 more pics to be posted tomorrow. The 6 I just did took 1 hour to load and SWMBO says I need to go to bed.

Thanks for the photos, Willy. According to Unka Jesse, it is almost impossible to have a MSLS meet without the addition of copious amounts of rain.

I have more photos, yet I just found out one has a problem and stops the others from loading. So I must load them one at a time.

The next set is a panning shot from right to left.

Willy (that is when I can get them to load)

Ok here we go. Remember, first pic is from the right of the rotation.

Willy,

Did the Berk make an appearance while you were there? Happen to get any pics of it?

Willy, nice pics, but I see I should have gone up there instead of to the Mid-South meet where it was beautifully dry. I really did not feel at home all week because of the uncommonly fine weather.

Who was the engineer who apparently leaned out too far and got stuck on the tree trunk? One of your kin folk perhaps??? Thanks for the pics.

The Berk was in the shed all the time. Forgot to look in and get her lines for all of you to drool over.
