(...) Mmmmm - Rachael and I have been toying with the idea of a California vacation later this year. A trip to Legoland seemed like a sure thing before, but if there were a Brickfest to attend it would definitely be a sure thing. Been too busy (...) (23 years ago, 14-Jul-01, to lugnet.events)

(...) Yeah...that's kinda' what I figured. Two events COULD be held concurrently...that MIGHT be cool (or could hurt either ones attendance..I dunno'...) More thoughts: -I see this as an event sponsored by more than one LUG, encompassing the entire (...) (23 years ago, 14-Jul-01, to lugnet.events)

(...) This will probably have to be the case. I suppose we will have to create a Brickfest Northwest for those of us who are unable to go all the way to Southern California. I had a lot of fun going to LLC in April, but it's much too far to drive, (...) (23 years ago, 14-Jul-01, to lugnet.events)

Kevin & All, (...) Definate possibility. That is too bad, I would have loved seeing either the 6399 or 6990 monorail come back. Those would have been ideal. Well, I hope maybe they can pull our the straight monorail mold and maybe make a 10 pack or (...) (23 years ago, 14-Jul-01, to lugnet.events.brickfest, lugnet.trains)

Hey all, I have been kicking this idea around myself, especially since the mech builders who didn't make it to BrickFest were so jazzed about attending BrickFest next year. I even solicited a few e-mail responses about it. Here are some of my ideas: (...) (23 years ago, 14-Jul-01, to lugnet.events)
