Congratulations, Nick...!!!

Well deserved for a spectacular engine and photograph!

I know I am a few hours early with the congrats but the odds are in favor given he drew not just the most votes but so far the majority of all the votes.

Congratulations Nick, a great traction engine made even better with your son being there, a heritage picture worthy of wall space.

Yes, I may have cheated a bit using a kid  ;) :D  BUT I wanted to make a very special picture for the first EOTM, then it got stuck in Gil's hat till the third month  :D

Congratulations Nick, a great traction engine made even better with your son being there, a heritage picture worthy of wall space.

Already hanging on Grandpa's wall, along with this one from the "photo-shoot". I think I need to blow it up and make a canvas for the wall here  ;)
