| Our first Spouse Operation Session At one recent operating session a member happen to bring his 
				wife and she seemed to have a good time running a train.  
				So we decided to expand on this idea and formally hold a 
				"Spouses Invitational".  We had surprising good turnout 
				(more than shown in the photos) and the wives all enjoyed 
				sharing with their husbands the fun of "playing with trains".  
				So much so, that we will be doing it again!

				 Men could operate too, even if his 
				significant other couldn't make it.

				 Here is Mike operating Port Keechi 
				Yard.
 He took a break and bar-b-que'd up chicken for a crowd that had 
				worked up an appetite.
