@wm3798,

Rising Sun was only a brief stay immediately after law school.  Mom’s from Tunis Mills (outside Easton) and Dad’s from Church Hill.  I spent a good chunk of my summers in my youth in Tunis Mills.  Baseball Hall of Famer, Jimmie Foxx (you heard of him?) is from Sudlersville.  I still have a lot of family in Talbot and Queen Anne’s Counties.  My heritage is 100% Eastern Shore, you carpetbagger.   ;)

Dang!  I've been outed!  I should have remembered that Jimmie Foxx guy.  I drove by his house the other day!

Ah, but do you have family in actual Tunis? Not some wanna be suburb?  I do (via the wife.)
Failing to prepare is preparing to fail.

@davefoxx Awesome! Welcome to the dark side. In all seriousness though, awesome DS 4-4-1000. Where did you pick it up from?

Actual Tunis, as in Tunisia?  No.  But that's cool that you do, even if only by marriage.

@pjm20,

It's an HO scale DS 4-4-1000 by Bowser.  I purchased it from Lombard Hobbies.

Thanks,
