| (...) I enjoyed building the mountain, and I'm glad you liked it. But I think I better call it a 'hill' compared to Jeff's mountain. That was just awesome. I am just in awe of that piece of art. We're not worthy! We're not worthy! (...) Yeah us! (...) (23 years ago, 12-Aug-01, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto, lugnet.org.ca.parlugment, lugnet.org.ca.monlug)

| | | | Finally...
|
| Well, I finished my mountain around 1:30am. Then I had to pack everything up. Had to take a couple breaks to look after my crying son. But I'm finally ready for Train2. It's after 3am already, so I hope Jude knows how to drive standard. <grin> Play (...) (23 years ago, 11-Aug-01, to lugnet.org.ca.parlugment)
