I’m up the creek now big time.
I thought I got everyone a gift for Christmas,.
but as I was putting the gifts in a bag to take on Christmas to my daughters.
I realized I forgot to get a gift for her young-en.
My youngest grandson now how do I handle this one.
I was sure I got a gift for everyone.
Here it is almost midnight no where to get a gift for the little guy.
Now I feel like a heal.
It’s not fun getting olt.

Mr Kapp, I think your in luck if your going to your Daughters a little later today, I believe you will find that there are quite a few store open this year on Xmas. Or Cash was always my Favorite Xmas Gift and still is the Preferred method for myself. Nick Merry Xmas

Ralph Berg said:Ralph; You know I was setting here racking my little brain over what to do. I remembered that I have an 027 scale trolley almost new and I have extra track for it. I got it on sale for about a hundred bucks. Don't know what it is worth now. He is just 4.maybe a little young for it. What do U think?
David, Time to make the ultimate sacrifice...........and give up one of your trains ;) Ralph
Go for it! Kids are never too young for trains!
Dagnabit, he is going to get a Trolley for Christmas.
get the wrapping paper out Santa.
I got my first Lionel train for Christmas when I was just 4 years old. Of course I never grew up beyond that age so a couple of years later would have been the same thing in a way. hehe!

So, how did the little one react to your gift? ??

A piece of peach pie is in the mail - just barely managed to squeeze the envelope in the tiny mail slot…
Dave,
I’m sure the trolley will be most fitting and appreciated.
Report on Christmas day;
Well it’s the day after Christmas and I wanted to report on the trolley story.
Well he did get the trolley on Christmas alright. Seems like it turned out to be his favorite gift.
That little guys eyes lit up so big n bright, he was happy. Pappy was happy to.
All he wanted was to put the train up and run it.
So the 3 of us put the train track together and and the little guy ran his train most of the day.
Seems like you had paddles for that creek after all…
Cool…you made the little man’s Christmas
And as a result…it made your Christmas
Ralph
I’m glad it was such a great choice.
