"Brooklyn Brown House"

March 7, 2023

Today I started my first attempt with 3D printed buildings! I've been looking for a long time to find a solution with many "Brooklyn Brown Houses". I would like to build a complete street block with it and need about 40-50 buildings. That will be expensive… Or not? I was able to purchase the 3D model for a building on the Internet. To save costs, I removed the "rear building" and only printed the facade at a local 3D printing service provider. Now you can see three facades next to each other here. I am very pleased. Have now ordered the next 20 facades.

Day off

The President flew from Capitol Hill to Hyannis Port for a few hours. He wants to be inspired at the Kennedy Compound. The Kennedy Compound consists of three houses on six acres (2.4 hectares) of waterfront property on Cape Cod along Nantucket Sound in Hyannis Port, Massachusetts. It was once the home of Joseph P. Kennedy, an American businessman, investor, politician, and U.S. ambassador to the United Kingdom; his wife, Rose; and their children, including U.S. President John F. Kennedy and U.S. Senators Robert F. Kennedy and Edward M. Kennedy.

Alert!

February 12, 2023

Unknown flying object alert above Capitol Hill. An F-14 secures the airspace. It looks like a big balloon. There is no danger to the residents of Capitol Hill.

There were numerous complaints because the plane flew very low above Pennsylvania Ave. Perhaps not the most modern aircraft, but LT Pete 'Maverick' Mitchell is in the cockpit. And he knows what to do...

The object was shot down over the water. Investigations into origin of the object are ongoing.

Revell airplane model.
