Don Campbell next to the 1/12th scale O&K Terex RH-400 Primed model.

O&K Terex RH-400 – Todays picture shows me next to the massive one of a kind model. Today I will finish building the last parts for it.
2009 ALPENFEST / ALPINEFEST / ALPINEMESS/ OR ALPINESTRESS , whateve you may call it, Gaylords annual summer festival will begin tomorrow morning as it always does with the worlds largest coffee break downtown.
Deb and I saw the first carnival rides parked on the side street this morning as we went on our morning walk.
We usually don’t go to it until Thurs. , Friday and Sat. night to watch the singers on the entertainment stage.
GOOD NEWS TODAY – My mom had knee surgery this morning and we just got the call everything went smooth. So we are very thankful for that good news.
We will head downstate to see her.
SUMMER IS ALMOST OVER – One thing is for sure when the Alpinefest is here , everyone knows after it is done , it is our first reminder summer is almost over and the cold north wind cools things down not too long after that. In fact, last night some areas got down to the high 30’s and that is cool for July.
Alaska Trip- Nicole and Bill will be starting to think about packing for their trip to Alaska . They love those cruise ships vacations.
Liebherr T-282 Mining Truck- is my next large model project I will start building in Aug. It will also be built in 1/12th scale to match this shovel model.
Have a great Monday !!!!!!!!!!!!!
