Lovely man. So many people I care about die around Christmas.
One of us who died in the summer is mentioned here: http://www.penbaypilot.com/article/eric ... ions/45757
A number of you are mentioned as well.

Very nice, very nice indeed.

Jon, who is your guy?

One of our cats peed on the ZW transformer and that slowed things.
I've got an MTH Z4000 dual transformer just sitting around new in the box. Will that get you back up and running?

Re: Hobo Jungle
Tramp,
I think I said this before but it is worth repeating IMO.
Great to have you back in the Jungle or anywhere on MTJ.

Re: Hobo Jungle
Jon, if that transformer works similar to the ZW (this was a newer one), I'm in. I guess Lenny's pee eventually corroded the insides, then I noticed burning, so it must have shorted. It looked pretty ugly inside when I opened it.
Did you read this? http://www.penbaypilot.com/article/eric ... ions/45757 Since you and I were the main listeners for the beverage cart, I thought you might enjoy it.
One thing you guys might notice is that I didn't mention anything in my column that would allow strangers to find our forum and thread.

Your discretion was duly noted and your column was enjoyed.

Re: Hobo Jungle
WOW. Wowowowwee, Dennis! That is beautiful. Atmospheric and cool as can be. So many expert touches I'm going to remember, like: gently gathered snowfall along the edges of the foundations; "de-snowed" tracks immediately behind the car's tires (!!!!!!!); some lighted windows (not entire edifices); general tones and weathering of buildings indicating a common circa; cafe curtains with miniature plaid/pattern (!!!!!!); sidewalks with metal-appearing drain openings. Wow. We all recognize when we have seen a master's work because we can see - feel and sense - the truth of it.

Re: Hobo Jungle
Excellent scene.

Re: Hobo Jungle
Thanks for the kind words, Murph. I had a lot of fun creating that scene on my Sandy Harbor. It's actually the shot on our Christmas card.
