Everyone is doing fantastic.

 

And there is Bill's birthday present, right there.

If that isn't the greatest news. We were all worried about you, Toshi.

Welcome back to you and your able assistant.

 

 

Well now, "Happy Birthday Bill"!  The Toshi household started on a rocky foot this year but we will endeavor.  Thank you sir for the welcome back.  Ezra and Mrs. Toshi are now enjoying nap time while I clean up the bench.

Your friend's, Toshi & Ezra!

Toshi,

The B-24 is coming along nicely. You and Ezra make a great team. Glad to hear that everyone is doing OK. I've missed seing your posts on the forum.

Stay safe

My friend, 

It's great to be moving forward once again.  Ezra is into video games and games on my phone.  Oh, the irony!  I have tried to pursuade him and entice him with collecting philatelic "Stamps" items.  Although fun, he always manages back to games.  

Today he really enjoyed AB once again with Papa.   Thank you so very much for your kind words and encouragement!

 

Your friends, Toshi & Ezra.

To my fellow FSM Forum Members,

 

          I having been in and out of the hospital with having Ezra getting a scare with COVID19 was an interesting summer.  Luckily Ezra tested negative and I'm doing holistic healing!  Everyone is doing fantastic.   Today Ezra and I decided to do some AB.  It's been six months since even touching this kit and we plan on finishing it before Ezra leaves either Friday or Saturday.  He's getting so big, Ezra is now four years old.

Due to such an economic shortage we've both try to use what we have in materials.  AB the B-24 with Vallejo silver chrome, we will do some weathering and place this kit on the globe stand.  At least that's our game plan.  My son also picked up a Academy 1/72 B-17F   "Memphis Belle" so that'll be our next project.  Please see the photos below.

Yes, I am taking it slowly. Thank you for the kind words of Ezra.

So when will the junior paint master get there so you two can start spraying?

 

He just, left Streetsboro heading out to Columbus to be with his mom.  He will be back here in a couple weeks.

To my fellow forum members,

          Here is where the next excitement starts.  AB!  Ezra wanted to spray as soon as the box was open.  So I think when he sees these photos he will know what time it is.  AB.

Your friend, Toshi

I was starting to get concerned, as I was keeping an eye on your post in the ready room, and it had been a while since the last post.  I am so relieved to hear you are home and on the Mend!

 

Keep on keepin' on!

 

Thank You so very much, Justinryan215.

Progress on the B-24 but it's even better to hear you're up and about!!! Hope you keep on the mend! 

 

It's the healing power from family that made my hospital staycation possible!  FSM members, and the Miura family tradition have kept me focused.

 Hey dude, it's good to hear from you. I have built that kit as gifts too many times to count. It seemed for a while I was surrounded by retired Bomber crews! You sir, are a bomber too. Keep throwing bombs at those Bugs. You ,Mrs Tosh and Ezra are always great to hear from!

As much as I can!

So you are back home then. Outstanding!

Stop falling on your head, please.

Thank you for giving us an update. Have definitely been thinking of you since your last post from the hospital. Do keep that amazing postitive attitude of yours going. I hope for all those around you that it is contagious. What a gift.

 

Almost at death since my accident 5/5/2010!  I'm just rabid for FSM family, peace and prosperity.  Good health in mind, body, and spirit as the saying goes is priceless.
