It's been June since the last time I was here. Where does the time go.

I have been working away on my mine buildings (very slowly), and I am progressing well. I have actually finished building my hoist house and am much happier with the result I got. I am starting on the pit head/tipple structure.

This is just a check in, I will return with more and better detail.

With the left rear corner of the alcove expansion "finished" - including Buck & Loretta's place it's now time to work on the right rear corner.  I've decided that since the Gravel Plant will be in the foreground that I'm just going to leave the rear area forested without many details.  Below are a couple of pictures of the work thus far.
