My mom live's pretty close to it now (at least in the winter), she's got
a place on Treasure Island.

I think the point of the pink discussion was more: "Gee wouldn't it be
nifty for (some of) us if TLC did the stereotypical thing and had a pink
bus." I hope TLC will eventually realize that serious builders would
like to see a larger variety of pink parts. I don't care if they're in
sets or in bulk packs or something else, but I'd sure love to be able to
realistically create large creations in pink (don't tell anyone but I've
got a slow effort underway for a couple pink creations, and they aren't
something like a Don Cesar for my town...).
