Day 6 of Construction

 

The first 'frost' has arrived at Heather Ridge. All the ground is white...or will soon be white

Actually we are painting the boards white so that when our 'snow cover' is sprinkled the brown on the boards will be easier to hide

In addition to the boards being painted white, we have cut out and placed the pond. We will use a small fountain pump to

recirculate the water down the waterfall.

This picture was taken after all the track was laid for the train

Another view. Most of the town is now laid out. On the next page you will see us drilling holes for light cords. We

have decided to do this inside this year. We have a trick that helps keep the saw dust from being spread all over the display

and will demonstrate that in pictures that follow.

The recreational area above the falls has been painted.

Not a good shot, but a close up of the Christmas Santa Fe Express Locomotive

In this picture you can see the rock work below the church and near the road. Also fence has been positioned in

front of the Nantucket Renovation House along with lighted lawn decorations (candles)

A closer view

The train will go into a tunnel at this location under the top level.
