I have heard about it, I think someone mentioned it in an another thread...

I am definately interested in that. Should be no problem building something
that looks nice.

Stratford? Then you definately know St Marys, and maybe know of Woodham
which is on Hwy 23 right in between exeter and St Mary's. So you are about
half an hour away from me.
I used to take Hwy 7 a lot when I went to school in Toronto, but then I
would take the shortcut through Tavistock to bypass Stratford since your
roads are crap! ;)

I actually read that before I read this, and it looks interesting and I
should be able to come out at least one of the days. For multiple days I
would have to find some accomodations and see what else may interfere.
November is a long ways away...
How was this weekend in stratford? We lost power for over 50 hours and
everything was coated in a 1 inch layer of ice... Right now we got snow. Was
going to go to Exeter to shop but turned around after too many whiteouts and
navigating by the tops of trees and hydropoles.

| Howdy all, I've just been reading this thread and I'm surprised at the number of Lego fans in the areas outside of Toronto.
