I started this post partially on another thread & thought I would give it its own thread, Ang & I had a very nice visit with Janet and Larry at their lovely home in Gahanna Oh. We also met Maggie the fluffiest cat I've ever petted. I toured Larry's very fine collection of steamers upstairs (while Ang & Janet visited in her sewing room) and then we went downstairs to the " train area" where over half the basement area is home to a nice layout of live steam locomotives ,cars & scenery & buildings. It was a great time with gracious hosts and Ang & I enjoyed it very much. I came home with quite a few engines that I will enjoy as time allows, Larry takes very good care of his engines and I'm looking forward to running & filming them in the near future. 😊
