When I showed my wife all of the photos you posted of everything you’ve done her response was another person who should seek out help and then she laughed her head off. She thought it was wonderful, but she said to me what is it with you men and model building?  My last big project was the RMS Titanic so she’s always amazed by the detail and now she knows I’m not alone.

That's a very interesting observation on her part. I never thought that obsessive attention to detail could be a male characteristic, particularly as it seems to serve no real useful purpose. Perhaps it is a male desire to exert a high level of control over something, to compensate for the little control we have over the world overall!

Nice model, by the way. 🙂

Thank you very much and yes it is as Jackie Gleason would say “I am the King of my castle, as long as my wife is not around”.

After a hiatus of several months for grandparent duties and a trip to Japan, I'm back making some slow process on the Old San Juan street scene. Somehow it seems like each new structure I undertake is more complicated than the last. This is going to be a loose rendition of the Capilla de Cristo adjacent to the Parque de Las Palomas in Old San Juan. 20240618_104251

Next building finished: the Pablo Casals Museum in Old San Juan.. For those of you not familiar with him, he was a Spanish cello player who was already world famous when he left Spain after Franco came to power. He eventually came to Puerto Rico, married a Puerto Rican woman, and made the island his home. The museum contains pictures as well as videos and recordings of his performances.
