"The Operator"
unoading logs at Big Pine saw mill just south of Smirgley Junction
"Smirgley Junction" Stock Yards
Loading Sheep
Building our "Cabin" on Smiley Hill Road
Down Town at night in Smirley Junction
Downtown on a school day
Wolf's  Construction Company is excacating for a new building
Our neighbor Joe is hauling the dirt away
The little chapel at the bottom of the hill
Working on the electrical turnouts
The engine that Mark and Deanna  gave me
Getting ready to load a cattle car
Fixing the caboose after the train wreck
Cattle buyers making selecting fat cattle-oops one  cow went belly up!
Pickups all lined up on sale day at Weldy brothers sale barn

                                                         Taking a much needed break
                                  A late afternoon purchase at Doug's corner drug store
              The first locomotive Garen I and Garen II purchased (red and white--bottom center)
                 Early picture when we were  constructing the Big Pine Lumber Company
                                                    Big round bales of hay like the ones on Uncle Doc's farm
                                                       The Garen L Wolf  and Father Farm
                                                               A look at the school yard
                                                                The result of smoking in bed!
                    I see the ladder but where is the fireman?  Oh, mabye he is inside putting the fire out!
                      Who on earth was dumb enough to put a horse in the cow pen?
 

 

                                                                A close up of our first locomotice
                                                       The red house in the French Quarter
The grandsons have their own trains on the lower level.

               Caiden is in deep thought considering the construction of his HO gague train layout.
                Caiden is inspecting the railroad bridge over the river on the way to Smiley Hill Villege.
                                This is  the only lumber yard in the tiny villege of Smiley Hill.
