[Sharon Evans]

As with the past sessions, I will be posting the processed pictures the following day. So Monday will be done Tuesday afternoon., as so on. Looks like 4 cars spotted on the connector track so is shaping up to be a busy 2 weeks. Will have my work cut out keeping up with what is what. Already have reviewed planned work in FIDO.
Here we see the 4 cars in what will be their final placement as the Friends sessions C & D get ready to start. The woodshop is open and will be a gathering place until the cook car gets open Monday.

In the last photo of the vent, that poor thing has been used for target practice for years. I didn't crawl out to it when we were putting in the chimney liner, but there were dozens of holes in it. It will be fun to see what they can do with that thing.
