I'll be doing a small (5' x 6') LEGO town/train display at Scott Manor house in
Bedford from Monday July 17 through Sunday July 23.  My display will be open to
the public daily from 1 pm to 4 pm, and Tuesday from 1 until 8 pm.

I've been busy trying to build some Bedford themed stuff, including the Scott
Manor House, Chickenburger, Esquire Restaurant, Battered Fish, and the large
100+ year old rhodie by Prince Edward Estates.

Superstore is tax free today, Saturday June 17.  The one on Joe Howe in Halifax
also has about 1/3 of their LEGO with yellow shelf tags, mostly about 20% off.
This included some 2017 sets as well as some older Star Wars, Nexo Knights,
Friends and City sets.

Not all Superstores have a toy section.

I'll have a 6' by 14' layout at the VIA station in Halifax this Saturday, April
29th, 9 am to 4 pm.  Admission is free, but parking can be problematic,

There will be first responders (fire, ambulance), a VIA train, and other layouts
and booths, including Operation Lifesaver.  It is a cool event for kids and rail
fans.

I'd hoped to do another display at the Halifax Central Library this summer, but
the only space they offered me is very near the coffee shop on the main level.
As I have a sensitivity to coffee odours (throat swells shut after awhile), this
wasn't acceptable.

Saw a news item on CTV news channel last night, about the PM and some toy drive
in Toronto.  When asked what he got for his kids, he said "lots of toys, lots of
LEGO, no video games this year".  Apparently his mother used to buy him a LEGO
set every year for Christmas, even as an adult, and it was his best present each
year.
