Thanks, guys!

Yup, I surely DO need to get the next lay-out going. I've spent a long time thinking and planning, but things always seem to hold up the building phase. This time, it was another hospital vist during the holidays--heart acting up again.
Even though my previous lay-out was relatively small, it could be challenging and time-consuming to "do things right." It could take two guys working together at least a half hour to make a full run over the four cities of the lay-out and do the pick-ups and set-outs. If they wanted to "stretch time," they could add a little more run time between cities by just running laps around the table top. I didn't have a fast clock then, but I intend to get and use a fast clock on the next lay-out so that should make things even better yet!
