Good Morning!


 The weather in Coopville is supposed to be warm and sunny this week. Hubby and I have a lot of work to to outside. Will be taking the week off to try to get it all done while the weather cooperates - will post pics of our efforts next week!

 

Please remember to honor our military.  They are not forgotten and NEVER will be.

May God bless them all.

Pre - War Märklin locomotive - Abandoned model train - Restoration

This is a R-910 abandoned model train produced by Märklin between 1938 and 1955. I bought it at a flea market. Each part was pretty much seized. The engine was totally blocked and I thought I couldn't bring it back to life... I spent one entire day trying to fix it. The front and rear counterweights were originally riveted then I had to make threads to fix them again. I found some pictures of old labels on the internet. Please watch till the end to see this Pre-war rusty locomotive in action !

A good place to....

Added more peppers:


Hubby cut the lawn again:




Now that's a LOT of weeding!




Woody has been busy again - look at all the wood chips!




Next week, if the weather is sunny, we will power wash the deck and get it painted!

Remember these??

Our allowance was a quarter each week when I was a kid. My brother would take me to the candy store so I could get a new comic book. The store had racks and racks of them. It was sooo hard to choose which one to buy!

 

 















 

 Wish I had kept some of them!
