Disappearing Railroad Blues

Family

Since the Fall of 1999, the HO train layout has been a part of our lives. When Dave and Greg left for college at the same time we converted half of the the upstairs bedroom space into a 14′ x 18′ model train haven. Dick VanAlstine and Steve designed and built a very realistic layout. CJ got quite involved in various aspects of the scenery. Several of our relatives and friends followed the progress of the project through the years. To see the trains became one of the highlights of our annual Deck Day Party. Now the time has come to move on. The trains are chugging into history but we have documented them quite well in photos and video.

Off the beaten path is Hampstead is the more than three hundred year old Burgh House with a fascinating history. It’s now a community center, local museum, gallery, concert venue, event space, and more open to the public four days a week. We popped over for a bite to eat and to peruse the galleries to learn a little more about Hampstead history.

Wicked The Musical

Ever since its debut on Broadway the two of us have wanted to see “Wicked the Musical”. Today we realized that dream. In the Apollo Victoria Theater in London’s West End we were witness to the incredible prequel to The Wizard of Oz, the story of the Glinda the Good and the Wicked Witch of the West.
