Not the Flying Scotsman

[JBW]

To survive twenty-five years with me one must have a unique sense of humor. Which is just what M'Lady has.

I've been pondering what to use to get around our garden as my legs begin to give me trouble. If we were as rich as some think we are I would put in a miniature railroad. Bridges, tunnels, villages, lakes and mountains would be the order of the day. Rolling around my fantasy world snapping pictures to my hearts content.

Alas, we are no where near that rich. So M'Lady bought me a colorful train set for three year old's and up. I love it. You'll be seeing more of it!

Hopefully with better lighting and a little more subtlety.

You'll be seeing more of it!

I look forward to it.

Wonderful for trying out different ideas - on lighting, etc.

True

Although it crossed my mind whether a purist would consider Jupiter as 'astronomical', it being so close - I mean, it's not like it's "outer space"

From Merriam Webster:



Definition of astronomy
plural astronomies
: the study of objects and matter outside the earth's atmosphere and of their physical and chemical properties

It's not 'deep space' but it is outer space.
