| Open House June 2, 2007 Now including 9 new pix from Rob Davis |
| First, I want to thank Karen Darling, webmaster of www.gardenrropenhouse.com and Pete Eggink of Delaware who pushed me to include us South Jersey guys on the schedule for 2007. The turn out was amazing. I alone had close to 100 visitors attend Saturday. (I didn't open on Sunday...it rained) . Secondly, I like to give a special thanks to my neighbor "Ed" who parked his fully restored 1952 Fire Truck in the driveway and gave "Fire Helmets" to everyone.. Just this alone, brought in many locals that have never seen the truck or the trains before. Thanks ED! |

| Last, but not least.."My Special Friend" |
| This is my neighbor ED. Who, is always there to be my "third hand" when I need it. (On the install of my Eaglewings layout, he was my 3rd AND 4th hand at times) Who video tapes "special" events on the WBGRR.. Who owns every tool there is.. AND who owns the fabulous 1952 Fire Truck that was parked in the driveway. He let the kids ring the truck's bell AND gave every kid (no matter how old) a "Fireman's Hat" . As always Ed.. Thank-You Buddy for your help. |
