Hello from Southern Illinois

[Plasticated Guy]

Hello, everyone. The name is Mike aka Plasticated Guy. I come from the country town of Cobden and I'm pleased to be a part of this forum. I was on the Scale Auto forum until it shut down. I usually build 1/24 and 1/25 scale, but I'll go for larger or smaller scale if the subject matter grabs my interest.. My other interests include walking/hiking and I enjoy watching vintage NASCAR, ARCA, and currently Superstar Racing Experience. I shall look forward to sharing my projects on here.

My work took me to Cobden. It's nice there, and Alto Pass, Pomona, and the winerys. Lots of places that a truck the size of what I was in didn't need to be. Lol. There are some wild and wooly places in that area.

Hi, Carl, and thanks. A.J., I was a volunteer firefighter for 4 years with Alto Pass. Those hairy areas would be worse when I would get a call in the middle of the night. ?

But the back roads are great for walking. I do one mile and it feels like two.
