WoW ~ That was a Great Open House!


  Congratulations and Thank You to Barry & Buckie for a terrific "Open House".  On what was possibly a bad weather day turned out to be beautiful in Athens, Maine!   We all know that they both worked hard to get ready and it paid off with great results.  Four or Five trains ran without any problems all day long!  The lunch was outstanding, thank you again to all that helped out and made it such a great time.  Maybe it was the big storm that is approaching or that we simply enjoy each others company but it felt extra good today.  We were also pleased to have Nancy Norris from Garden Railway Magazine in attendance.  She is a MGRS member and is visiting 'back home' from her current home in California.  She was very nice to meet and we enjoyed her company.  She commented on what a great turnout we had and said it was better than what she would expect back in California.  So that was nice to hear.  But, we do know that we have great enthusiasm as an organization.  I think it is because we have fun as a group!  So, thanks again to all who made the trip to Athens and a special thank you to Barry & Buckie for being such great hosts.   To see some picture please click here:
