Our latest helpers, pictured, are the Smith girls who made Sculpey
(clay) bakery goods for the bakery window. Little fingers made little
cakes and cookies. Next time they'll make figures as they already know
how.Susan and Dave helped to cut backer board for the mountain
frame and made scenery, too. John submitted his plan for a metal
suspension bridge and the rest of us started screwing the plastic
roadbed to the steel frame over the trailer's wheels.
Daniel took
home one trailer side for fitting with a series of wooden bridges,
trestle and retaining walls all with hand-laid track.
Terry's
paint job on the metal buildings looks great and ready to install. They
will be mounted above the battery box, now purchased, be part of the
town, and be visible while the trailer is traveling.
Frank and
Donna made us all a lovely BBQ lunch at their house where the kids went
swimming. Then we paraded over to Kermit's for a tour. Big day!
We
still need YOUR help! Lots to do. We have our first venue in October,
finished or not. Let's make it finished!
