A Visitor from out of town...

Totally loved reading this mini story. Very well photographed and put together. Viper trying out their three different flying contraptions was just flying-tastic.

Funny stuff! Nicely photographed!

But I will freely admit to being completely distracted by and in awe of that AMAZING suspended GI Joe boardwalk training facility!

Tell us about that! It must be a permanent installation, and it must have taken ages to construct! But it is SO COOOOL!

Also, is that leather AT logo with the hem stitching on the cover of your comic real, or a digital rendering?

I agree an amusing and well photographed story . I know how long this stuff takes to put together so respect to you . And I have to agree with Dave that out door dio is amazing , and would love to hear the background story of it . Well done , good stuff .

Thanks again as always...one of the things I loved about this site and missed...how kind and complimentary everyone is.
As for the outdoor structures...the platforms around the trees are permanent structures...or should I say semi permanent since the squirrels have been feasting on the uprights. I have to keep maintaining yearly. The bridge is one of two...was going for a vehicle bridge then when realized was too narrow...cut it down the middle and made two. The bridge can be removed and is currently in the basement for the season. I will see if I can find pictures of it before I painted.
It does take a great deal of time and energy to gather the materials, equipment, etc and set up but oh the fun bringing Joes escapades to life...
Thanks again

Oops...forgot to mention that the cool AT symbol was on a pamphlet that came with a joe set...don't remember now which set or where I have it...figures...ugh...getting old.
Must have deleted some of the bridge photos too...this is the only one I could find..

Thanx for the bridge in progress pic! Looks like 8 ft long? Sheet plywood for rigidity with applied planks?

Yes, those fantastic constructions caught my eye too.
Great comic and use of pieces from your collection.

Awesome stuff Angelo, the set up is superb! The bridge is a fantastic build. The Rescue helicopter is the highlight for me though. It's so different from the version I have. If you get a chance, could we see a few shots of the rescue copter?

Thanks...
Rescue chopper currently hanging in arctic display...will take a few pics but can't guarantee they will be all that great...
Thanks again everyone for the positivity

That would be wonderful Angelo, thank you!

I'm not sure how I missed this post, but the tree platforms and bridge are AWESOME!

Great story and photos too.
