Hi, As much as I don't like it, I will do no Lego through May. There are certain things on the house I must get done or the feds will take it away. The Lego room will not be under repair, so if anyone wants to brave the mess (since I'll be doing (...) (24 years ago, 29-Mar-01, to lugnet.org.us.bloc, lugnet.loc.us.oh.col)

It is a bit late, but here is what happened at the get-together. Well it didn't really go as planned, but I enjoyed it anyway. Jorge was the only adult to show up.

Found my first Alpha Team set today (in Columbus, OH, at the W. Broad St. TRU). 6773 Alpha Team Helicopter. They had about ten of them on the shelf. It was the only Alpha Team set they had out.
