Thanks for the kind comments everyone, it's good to hear from you guys. While we all encounter various trials and tribulations it is still nice to have a hobby and friends to distract us from life's bumps for awhile.
I am currently working in Lancaster, Ohio just S.E. of Columbus and I'll be here through the end of the year.
I already found a good LHS, The Smoke Stack Hobby Shop. They have all the supplies you could want and will order it if the don't! Hobby Lobby has a store within walking distance from the hotel too!
As I said I haven't done much Short Track for a while but have been building. I'll be posting some of the Non-ST stuff and a few of my older ST builds soon.
Thanks again!
PS Notice how I spaced my sentences so John2 could read it easier, lol.
