I will indeed have time to do some LEGO shopping this weekend, and I
will make time next week to get any purchases made to either the Red
Cross or Operation Toybox for distribution.
If anyone thinks we (I) should go ahead with this, let me know, and
especially give me ideas as to what to buy (I think buying Freestyle and
DUPLO buckets is the best bet). If anyone in NC would like to help, let
me know.
