O Scale West is coming next month!

Postby EdJakl » Mon Apr 03, 2017 5:56 pm

In California our mudslides and road washouts are over and fire season won't start until late summer, so come on out for O Scale West! Rod Miller and the team put on a great show with clinics, layout tours, model contests and a large selling area. Go to oscalewest.com for more details. See you there!

Ed,

We'll be there. Actually, sitting right next to you, if everything goes according to plan.

By the way, we saw your mom & dad this morning.....looking chipper as ever. Tried to buy them lunch but they said they weren't hungry. Was able to talk your dad into taking some Kadees.

We're working on them to go to Chicago next year....on the train, no less. Much less stress. We'll rent a car so we can chauffeur them around next time.

Jay

Amen to that. I have lifetime free travel on American Airlines, but will pay for a bedroom on Amtrak. Food is still edible, although not as spectacular as it was in 2004. Linda and I will be getting the deluxe bedroom with bath next time.

Yes, O Scale West is always great. Bob, does your post mean that you and Linda are considering going to the Chicago show in 2018, or even to O Scale West this year? I'd love to see you.

Steve

If we go to a show, it will be OSW. I teach Thursday nights, and that sort of interferes. We should take the Decathlon - but I love the drive up 101 (except for those who drive in the left lane).

I will be there again this year. Hope to see some of you there.
Just look for the white-haired guy with a white beard, with the slightly
numb expression on his face as he examines (drools over? :oops: :roll: )
some of the merchandise for sale....Oh! Heck! I just described at least
half of the attendees!! :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:
Take care,
Wolfgang

The drooling part alone might 50%.
