  Re: SCLTC Layout at BricksWest 2002
 
(...) Greg, Thank you for the very kind words. I had a lot of fun building most of the park. The playground came together after a couple of rebuilds. It wasn't designed as a copy of a real-life structure, but a sense of realism was the most (...)

(...) wow, Wow, WOW! Thanks for posting these pictures Ray. What a great layout. I'm still digesting the whole gallery but I wanted to immediately respond with a rave of appreciation for the scenes set in the park. The playground is just incredible (...)

  SCLTC Layout at BricksWest 2002
 
For those of you unable to attend the Inaugural BricksWest, I've posted a variety of pics from the event on my BrickShelf page (URL) currently have some of the pics of the SCLTC Layout that was up in the LEGOLAND Park. I will be adding more pics (...)

  My Last Plea for BricksWest Help
 
Like everyone else here, I *really* wanna go to BricksWest. But after spending two months out of work last fall (and then taking a 10% pay cut), and just getting through the Xmas season, money is very tight. I just can't go to BricksWest unless I (...)

  Beg, Borrow or Buy BURPs!!
 
Hi, Having expanded THE MOUNTAIN from 2 to 3 baseplates, we used about 50 BURPS so far and it is almost (~80%) done. Of course, we are out of burps now as well. So...if you all could spare just one (plastic) BURP each, we would sure appreciate it. (...) (22 years ago, 7-Feb-02, to lugnet.org.us.baylug, lugnet.loc.us.ca.sf)

  Rideshare and Roommates wanted for BricksWest
 
If I'm to attend BricksWest I will need to cut the costs. Would anyone from the Bay Area who's driving down like to carpool with me? I'll pay my share of the gas money and drive as much of the trip as you want. Also, once we're down there, I'm (...) (22 years ago, 4-Feb-02, to lugnet.org.us.baylug, lugnet.loc.us.ca.sf)
 
  Re: BayLUG newspaper article in Santa Rosa Press-Democrat
 
I called the Santa Rosa Press-Democrat and ordered two individual papers. It costs $8.60 to mail them because of special handling. Hey Paul, maybe this paper will have your paragraph in it that was dropped from the San Jose Mercury News print (...) (22 years ago, 31-Jan-02, to lugnet.loc.us.ca.sf, lugnet.org.us.baylug)
 
  BayLUG newspaper article in Santa Rosa Press-Democrat
 
At our last meeting, a reporter from the San Jose Mercury News interviewed a bunch of us (including me) and a photographer took pictures, and a very nice article appeared in the next day's (Sunday) paper. The local Fremont newspaper, the Argus, also (...) (22 years ago, 31-Jan-02, to lugnet.mediawatch, lugnet.loc.us.ca.sf, lugnet.org.us.baylug)
 
  RE: BayLUG January pics now on my website (and Brickshelf too)
 
Thanks, we like it too. Its about 16 studs in diameter. Stole the roof idea from the pic of another one I found online, but don't remember where. Building the curved tank with brown log 1x2s and 1x cylinders was a bit of a challenge. Height designed (...) (22 years ago, 31-Jan-02, to lugnet.loc.us.ca.sf, lugnet.org.us.baylug)

  Re: Snow on them thar hills!
 
(...) None that I can see. It was very clear and I could see the hills easily, but the only white stuff I saw was buildings. My parents claim they had snow in their field yesterday morning. They live about 3 miles up the road from me, but they might (...) (22 years ago, 29-Jan-02, to lugnet.loc.us.ca.sf, lugnet.loc.us.ca.sac, lugnet.off-topic.fun)
 
  Re: Snow on them thar hills!
 
(...) Check this morning, it's much clearer! The hills directly across from me are barish, but the moon is about to set behind them so it still looks cool. But the hills to the north toward Lake Berryessa are WHITE. You must be seeing some snow (...) (22 years ago, 29-Jan-02, to lugnet.loc.us.ca.sf, lugnet.loc.us.ca.sac, lugnet.off-topic.fun)

(...) SoCal has snow, too. Just a few miles from me, the glorious San Gabriel mountains are covered in a blanket of snow. Okay, several thousand feet up, but good old Mt. San Antonio (Mt. Baldy) is just gorgeous this morning. Bruce (22 years ago, 28-Jan-02, to lugnet.loc.us.ca.sf, lugnet.loc.us.ca.sac, lugnet.off-topic.fun)
