Slightly inactive.

During September, I was concentrating on making trees and shrubs, off the layout, for future use, as well as defining the ballast and scenery around the edges of the layout.  At this point I'd estimate the rough scenery away from the town is 25% complete.

Unfortunately, in early October a routine medical procedure turned critical and I landed in the hospital for a week, having a procedure I never expected to need.  Recovery time is estimated at eight weeks or longer, but hopefully I should be able to continue working on simple scenery projects by mid-November, and be back to full activity by early 2014.

Update: October 29th, 2013

Taking a break from the trains as we catch up on the other things that life throws at us.  Here is the layout as it stands right now.  We'll probably do some small work this winter but our time will be taken up with other things.  Don't worry, we'll be back to it soon enough!  :)
