George: A belated "Thank you". I think that I might have overextended myself. I had to tear down and pack up the Halloween Garden, plan the Christmas outdoor scene (will start assembling that the day after Thanksgiving), and working on 5 separate paper model projects.
 Oh, yeah, did I mention that I still have a day job? OK, here is the update for this project. I firmed up the plan for one end of the Inn and had to cut it out to see if it would work. It is a sandwich assembly reading from left to right. The left cutout will be the top of the sandwich. Since the middle of the sandwich will be the main structure with glue tabs, I will have to trim the right most piece to make sure that it does not interfere with the fit of the middle piece with it's connecting wall. I have all the parts for the second coach done, except for the stirrup steps. Hope to finish them tomorrow and assemble the coach this weekend. I also have to finish gluing the 3 recessed doors on the final wall of the Guild Hall. Hopefully, I can get the walls up this weekend also. PRAY FOR RAIN!!!

John, the facade built up real nicely! And I do understand over-extension; one of these days, we really need to try and get more than four hours of sleep in a day!

After a long layoff, I am back (groaning will not sway my decision).
I have made a bit of progress. In this series of pics, I have finished the end wall of the Inn. The angled shot shows off the layering best. The upper window has only the frame raised on the surface. The hinges on the door and the shuttered windows are surface raised, as are the shuttered window sills. The door is recessed. I will add a door handle after the building is assembled.

This series has to do with a rear wall of the Inn. The first photo shows the layering pieces before assembly. The woodwork, as in the last series, will be surface mounted. The upper and middle windows will be recessed. The lower windows and the door are shown as sub assemblies in the second photo. I built the recessing frame for the door from scrap. The door also has a wood trim overlay, thus recessing the door panels and windows. The two windows will be bay windows. I just bent the window wings about 30 degrees and then capped the windows (top and bottom) with scrap material. They will be surface mounted. Once again, I will add door handles after assembling the building.

Glad to see you back. I always have a hard time coming back to projects. I hope you and yours are doing well
