Good luck, Vic! I'm hoping I might actually get to attend this one. I've always wanted to go to one of the NG conventions, but it's usually a problem for me to get away to the more distant locations.
NNGC 2013-Pasadena-They say deadlines are a good thing
They say deadlines are a good thing, they make you to stay focused and get things done, well I might have one now...
The new Nov/Dec issue of the Gazette notes that the National Narrow Gauge Convention for 2013, will be held in my own hometown of Pasadena, thats only a little over 4 years away.
Now my goal is to try and get my crazy little layout onto the layout tour, why not? Its narrow gauge, has lots of quirky engines and rolling stock, and I'm right in the neighborhood 'round the corner. Its a big order considering its still a Plywood Pacific at the moment. Given what I want to do I'll have my work cut out for me to get it to a point of readiness when the submittal process begins, means I'll need to get a move on. I figure even if I dont make the cut, the motivation to meet the deadline will be a good way to keep me focused and working on it.

You can take everyone to the Rose Bowl flea market!
Huntington Gardens is pretty cool though and the new History of Science exhibit sounds interesting -
