Just nice enough to work outside today. So, after birding early this morning, and cleaning out the gutter anticipating a major storm, there was time to do a bit of work on the railroad. Although I built my stone mill a few years ago, it never had a proper siding. Even with my redesign, I couldn’t get the track to curve enough to have a siding for the mill. Well, the rain was teasing me all morning, but I did manage to move the mill.
It’s not that I had to move it THAT far, but I did have to move the “mountain” that provided water for the pond. You can just make out a depression where the old pond used to be, just to the right of the daffodils. I also had to elevate the mill - and luckily had some dirt left over. I still need more dirt, but at least I can get to the mill now.
The platform is in for repairs. Raising the mill also provides a little more visual block as well.
