Took my Abram to the beach for a little run.

That's a right smart looking Abrams. :clap: Let's see, a desert backdrop about, say, 10 feet high and 30 feet long would be right for the respect it deserves, don't you think? :problem: Maybe one could be snitched from a Hollywood movie studio. :shifty:

Thank you Barry, and Herr Dr Professor. Not quite so smart now. I launched it to the floor when putting it back on the shelf. It was an Oh :poop: moment. :{

Herr Dr Professor…. Thankfully minor damage only. Broken barrel and some stowage came adrift. And one of the wife’s vases got broke.

Herr Dr Professor. I survived a night of stony silence 🤫. Apparently, though, some stuff for my model railway, and a new barrel with recoil IS NOT a suitable replacement for a vase.
