Some additions to the site and work progress report

On Tuesday night some members of my Model RR club helped me paint the walls in the Layout room with Zinsser B-I-N Shellac Base Primer-Sealer. MAN that stuff smells! We did most of the room, but ran out of paint. I have to do more. One of the club members suggested removing all the furring strips on the walls and redoing them. This got me thinking that I might go ahead and do this. I am going to measure the ones that are in place now and see how they stand up. I want to have consistently spaced strips and as they are now some are crooked, loose or odd. They are also fastened to the walls with masonry nails instead of screws, which to me is no good. So this may be my next project.I have added a bunch of stuff to the History section. Take a look. I added some documents, notes and maps.
