love to throw out a question!

What is your coolest LEGO Experience? Maybe you built an amazing castle when
you were eight years old. Or perhaps you've had a more recent experience
like watching an FLL robotics competition where you saw kids participating
in the most thrilling event of their lives. Or maybe you finished the
perfect train car and posted it online.

I would love to hear!

I got a few that come to mind, in no particular order:

Favorite moment #1:
NWBrickCon 2002, Saturday afternoon, when doing a bit of running about and
then going into the center hall of the con seeing people.  My God, the
people.  It was easily one of my more proud moments as a LEGO fan.  Seeing
all the people and mostly the kids, oohing and aahing over all the
creations.  I remember saying to myself, "wow."
It was one weekend that will stick with me for a very long time.

Favorite moment #2, when I got this e-mail:

Hello Mark,

We would like to add you to the Lego Mecha Hall of
Fame. Upon seeing you mecha (mechs) made from Lego, we
put your nomination to a vote. You were accepted unanimously by The Founders.

The founders have a special space in my heart, whomever they are.

Favorite moment #3:
Being blown away at x-mas, a few years ago.  When my Father in Law finally
broke the final straw, and stripped any reminants of the "Dark Ages" away,
when he surprised me with the LEGO robotic's set.  That was cool.

Favorite moment #4:
Happened today actually, 12-8-02, when we (Raven and I) expaned our
collection with our first train set.  I'm hoping you train heads are ready
for some mecha/space trains to come, because they are coming....
