Sadly (or maybe not so sadly) I will be in Florida during our first mini
Legofest.[1]  I propose, however, a monthly or bi-monthly meeting to get
together.  A mid-May affair sounds good; I'm toast for June, but July is
good.  We still are up in the air regarding the NMRA national convention
here in St.Paul.  That would be a hoot to circle the wagons there:-)  And
too bad, cuz I just finished my first ribbed heaveyweight Pullman coach that
I wanted to show off, as well as my Hiawatha cars.  Next time!
And Paul, if you want to put a face with my name, try a cross between Robert
Redford, Fabio, and George Hamilton (my FL tan;-)

[1] Is it a "mini Legofest" or a "Lego minifest";-)
