Nice piece, Walt. Hard to find one with the graphics not shredded like a bananna.
Nice photo, too. I see the famous Lavander Tree poking out from the right. Keeping
It Sweet is my Holly Hopper.

Nice... although I tend to prefer Yuengling Lager... Not my image, but still a perfect one at that...

* I like the way you can see the coldness of the brew effecting the air outside air around the bottle of porter snd the glass of beer. It makes the moisture in the air collect and build up and run down the glass and bottle as water. It shows just how cold the beer is. HUMMMMM, Good Stuff !
* I guess that was my beer commercial.

This week I have a "Ye Olde Huff n Puff" flatcar kit that I finished. The company's motto is:
"Next best thing to scratch building". And they aren't kidding.
Essentially, they just gathered the parts for you and you had to do the rest from scratch.
They did cut the body and sides of the kit for you. but you had to literally "scratch"
build the rest of it. I used Tichy Train Group truck frames witt NWSL 33" wheelsets and
Kadee #5 couplers.
