Fellow Lego Enthusiasts:

The final brick is in for Castle Chillon on Lake Geneva.  The castle can
be
seen at http://www.end.com/~jynx/castle/chillon.html.

My model was constructed using 30,698 Lego bricks!  The rough breakdown
is
as follows:

    Gray bricks   20,418
        1xn bricks = 11,202
        2xn bricks = 4,557
        Baseplates = 2,869
        Arches = 186
        Slants = 449
        Tiles = 390
        Misc = 747

    Red slants (roofing)   2,609
    Other colors (infrastructure, etc)  7,671

It was my largest castle to date!

        Bob Carney
