In the beginning there was plywood and plans and imagination of what could we create in this 25 by 60 foot room.
The back half of the room did not look like much near the end of 2008 as we tried to use as much space for a model railroad that we dared to put into this place.
Pete puts in his time doing cork roadbed and track. Future Mount Whitney will be behind him and the Blue Main yard will be near the camera. November 2008.
Terry Frank checks measurements on the front portion of the layout. Those old sofas are long gone!
Merry Christmas from the Spokane Valley Fire Department! On Dec. 26th 2008 We got a phone call saying there was a fire in our club room and when I arrived I saw smoke coming out of the roof. Luckily it was next door that had the problem in some exhaust vent that overheated from the vent being clogged with snow. That hose will put a tear in our awning! We all thought it was the end! Not quite!
We survived the fire, the Fire Department, a bad economy, the glass store front, a poorly designed bathroom, keeping funds in the checkbook and kept disagreements to a minimum. Not bad for a bunch of kids no matter what our age shows on our licenses.
