Hey, guys....
Hope I'm not intruding, but Happy holidays to all of you-- like others, I'm sure I've saved a bunch of $ by keeping up with posts on this forum, and really appreciate the comaraderie that I see & feel here.

Eddie, your son, Peyton (?) -- what's that funny-looking hat on his head? It sure doesn't look like the hats I see around here...:D

My kids are grown (daughter 32, son 28), but son (Doug) has come to visit from Las Vegas and daughter (Wendy) lives with us, along with her son, Jason (7 now). Re-cycled Doug's old HO gauge train set (new transformer) for Jason for Christmas; he's been involved with it now for 3 days, now has bridge/underpass, tunnel (empty cereal box), with his planes forming the "airport."

Eddie, be careful what you give your kids to play with-- Doug started out with old computers, learning how to soup them up as I did cars-- now, he makes a lot more money than I do, for sure! One of the few in his field, I suspect, that has hardware as well as software experience. (Musta spent too much time with the ol' man tearin' stuff apart....) Daughter went & enlisted in the Navy's Nuke Program.... imagine that!

Kids are sure interesting-- I'm having a great time watching how Jason turns out. Best to all you & your families in the new year.

Good Afternoon Irving,
I feel the same way, we have a great group on here, very close to family ! We all share very similiar interests for the most part ! Occassionally we do get some arguments in some threads, which I tend to steer away from but they are far and few between for the number of posters that we have !

We have two boys, and the youngest son Doug is 25, the oldest is Dan at 27. The oldest is a computer science major, and you can guess who I go to when having computer problems ! ;)

BTW, Happy New Year ! :) Jason looks to be having some serious fun with his train set !

Don't ever think you are intruding. If any of us were worried about people intruding on our conversations we would keep our conversations in private messages or e-mails. TBN is a great site and I have a lot of friends on here which is why I like to share pics so often on here and I love seeing pics from others also. So you are always welcome to join in to our discussions as the more people sharing the better this site is.

I hope you have a great New Year. Just be careful, before you know it Jason is going to be having you expand the HO train set and that is an expensive hobby now. I always wanted to get into trains but I couldn't dedicate any amount of space for a train layout so I collected model tractors, construction equipment and tractor trailers. Things that fit on shelves;)

Boys or girls?

Boys, one is about 6'3" and around 230 goes to the gym about four days a week. The other guy is 6'3" about 210 and he also goes to the gym regularly.

Both are into fly-fishing, hunting, and most outdoor stuff. We have had some pretty nice fly-fishing trips and plan many more over the coming years.

Well, let's see if I can post a picture of my two little girls on their new roller skates Christmas morning. Of course this was Christmas morning, 1971!:D

Robert-
Your daughter looks like my 4year old cousin, Ava.

Eddie-
Your daughter looks like my other cousin, which is another coincidence, her name is Peyton. Put a blond wig on her, they'd be twins!

I was six years old on Christmas morning, 1971. Wish I could remember what I got from Santa that year. Guess my memory is failing me. :D
