Happy Thanksgiving!

Just wanted to wish everyone a happy and healthy Thanksgiving.  I know I have plenty to be thankful for – most of all my family.  And this year’s Thanksgiving is a bit more special – it’s also my daughter Katina’s 9th birthday!

On the blog side of things – I know it’s been a while since I posted something, and that doesn’t mean I haven’t been out shooting.  Actually, it’s just the opposite.  I should be putting up a few new posts in the next couple weeks – some usual stuff, and some different.  But the biggest thing I’ve been working on is a project for a magazine, part of it documenting the Valley Railroad’s transformation of the former Knox & Kane Chinese SY into one resembling a New Haven J-1.  Here’s a couple photos of the final result.

Just after coming out of the shop for the first time:

And just before being turned by P&W NR-2 on the Old Saybrook wye:

That’s it for now – stay tuned for many more.

Hope you all have a happy Thanksgiving!

Thanks!
