I moved to Massachusetts and I am enjoying my LEGO life as a member of
NELUG. I've been wicked (in the eastern half of the state that means
extremely) lucky lately. Being in NELUG has given me a chance to do
things that I never would have imagined. It more than makes up for being
lonely (in a LEGO sense) in New Orleans for a few years.

I really thought about removing the NoLTC from my web pages, but eh...
if you can have RobRail (that is you, right?) I can have NoLTC. After
all, I should be able to come up with something to fit the acronym.

Very cool Robin. I am amazed at all of the people who are going
vertical. It seems like a great many sky scrapers are going up these
days. I like the attention to detail that you put into the city, the
raised sidewalks with storm drains, the signals and street signs, etc.

Sincerely,
Chris

Thanks Mr. NoLTC... We are still working on the details; we hopefully will have
the real Tampa street names on the signal lights soon. And yet more details in
the works with items like planters, benches, newspaper boxes, bus stops, etc.

BTW are you still living in the New Orleans area or did you move and find a LUG
or LTC? I can’t remember...

Excellent stuff! I love to roof top swimming pools.

Is there a close up of the garbage truck in the lower left corner of this shot anywhere?
