Descriptions of the construction progress of my new Florida model railroad featuring the line from Lakeland to Punta Gorda. Originally a journal of RV trips throughout the United States and Canada with Patti and Bob. Also photo documentation of the progress on my Maryland model railroad, the Allegheny and Shenandoah, a mythical class one line connecting Strasburg VA. with Elkins WV.

We're not in Kansas anymore!
As you can see by the photos we've made it some distance west. We have a butte? mesa? bluff? outcrop? Aw gee, its a hill. The scenery has gone from semi mountainous in the Ozarks, to lush ranch land in eastern Oklahoma, to wheat fields in western Oklahoma and then as though someone turned on a switch, to much dryer scrub ranch land with a once in a blue moon cow in east Texas then in west Texas and New Mexico this area of buttes and not much else.
The big surprise is the acres and acres of windmills!! Holland has nothing on us.
Tomorrow is Aunt Fae in Albuquerque then Dorango Colorado and the Dorango and Silverton narrow gauge railroad. We reserved parlor car seats. It should be a hoot.
