Here is our moving team pulling out after a very long day in the cold.
These guys are Brazilian and speak mostly Portugese. Simone helped with translating whenever my sign language and broken Portugese didn't cut it. They are doing the final load out Monday but some will be coming here tomorrow (Sunday) to assist with packing.

Here is a quick look at part of their fleet. All three of these were full of our stuff.

Thanks, Jim!

Woodwork is mostly light gray. Very neutral and won't draw the eye off the targets.... engines!

Gil,
You will have those shelves filled in no time at all.  Looks like a great room, and the white woodwork will certainly make the engines standout.

looks real good Gil , some of those locations look custom built for the engine residing in them.

Thanks, Nick!

Thanks, Charlie!

It has been a long time getting this far.

In a couple more days, we should be completely out of our present home.

It will be a few months before we are set up to bring over the rest of the collection which is in climate controlled storage.
