Man Frank, I thought my room was bad! how do you find anything in
there???
I've got stuff in bags all over my room right now, and I can't seem to
remember which bag has what it in if it's a misc. bag... I know I need
to sit down and do some serious sorting again very soon! I've got too
many misc. bags and buckets :(

On your first MOC! looking good, any ideas on just how tall it's going
to be yet? I love the underground stream idea, I've had that in my head
for a while just haven't had the chance to build anything with it. Ever
since I did my mountain and I put that hidden alcove in it, I've wanted
to build something like that into a castle structure :) Sounds like
you'd have that chance with the under ground entrance from the stream!
(Now I'm giving away my ideas) :(

Keep us posted on the progress!!

for some pictures of the start of my new castle. It will be a Wolfpack castle
nestled on a clifside by the sea. A large sea cave will have a dock area and
an underground stream, with stairs leading up to the castle. A steep road will
hug the side of the cliff to provide a land entry. A bridge leads from the
base of the road across a river to the future site of a town.

The base is set up to separate into three sections. The river and bridge is
one section, the front cliff face is another, and the rest of the castle will
be on the largest section. The sections are laid out something like this:

I hope I have enough bricks, though one of the purposes of this castle is to
use up some of my BURPS (I've got a copier paper box almost full of dark grey
BURPS, and then the gery BURPS fill the box cover, and there is a small bag of
other colored BURPS).

I'd love for this castle to exist somewhere in Castle World. I haven't made my
Wolpack leader minifig yet, but perhaps I will take a break from castle
construction tomorrow.

Frank
