The Invasion is over

Since late December or early January (I really cant remember) our house has been invaded by the grandparents. first it was the in-laws who left at the end of February only to be replaced the next day by my parents.  So it has been a long time of having house guests.  The upside is that my father is also a model railroader and enjoys research so we spent some time digging through archives while he was here.  The Arizona Historical Societies archives are split between multiple locations and as previously mentioned we visited the Tucson portion of the archives.  On a whim we decided to revisit the Yuma archives and discovered that they had just gotten a bunch of their photos back from being cataloged.  These photos  yielded much information but as is always the case for every question answered at least two new ones were formed.  So now I just have to find time to go look through the non-rail pictures to see what they yield.  As far as projects go I am in the process of reorganizing my garage so that I can use my tools but with the temperatures already climbing into the 90's it will likely be next fall until I can start building phase 1(more on that later).
