We in this model railroading hobby are so lucky to have understanding wives,
especially us S scalers who really have nothing to offer, other than our model
railroads. (Unlike train collectors, et al)
Anyway, Bill and Sandie are two of the nicest people you would ever want to
meet in any hobby or at any type convention, or just anywhere in this whole
wide world!.
Especially when you are in Jeff Madden's Van, leaving Baltimore's Inner Harbor
Phillips Seafood restaurant leaving for your hotel and end up getting lost in a
"War Zone," with Blue Flashing lights, video cameras on top of the telephone
poles, cops and ambulances everywhere and you hand Bill and Sandie a map and
both realize they forgot to bring along their glasses! Man you talk about the
blind leading the blind!
WOW! Forty five minutes later, Jeff kept saying we have to hit the interstate
somewhere out here?
Finally, we gathered up enough courage to pull into a fenced in Service Station
and ask directions and the guy said, "What are you doing out here?" We said we
were lost! Obviously! 8>) So, we had to turn and around, go back through all
that chaos, finally found the avenue we missed and went back to the hotel! Oh
yes, forgot to add, we failed to get off at the correct exit, went through the
tunnel twice and then finally got safely back to our Hotel!
We laugh about it now, but back then at 11:00 PM, it wasn't very funny, was it?
Frankly, quite exhausting!
While we were sort of nervously laughing, I thought Jeff remained unusually
cool and collected through it all!
I hired a house cleaner for Mary, it really helped !
Got to go now, it is church time!
LOve you all!
