Due to the LLC event we had a small but good turnout last Saturday. I think we had about 10 members. For those who couldn't come you missed one of the all time best meetings. The location was simply stunning! Here are the high points: The location (...) (21 years ago, 5-May-05, to lugnet.org.us.lugola)

(excellent layout, BTW) Now I have to decide what color to make my roads. I am thinking (...) (21 years ago, 5-May-05, to lugnet.org.us.lucny)

(...) For me, it's a matter of color palette control. Look, there are only so many colors in LEGO with which one can build. I am very careful to avoid primary colors in buildings because they are rather unrealistic. So, a building can be tan, dark (...) (21 years ago, 5-May-05, to lugnet.org.us.lucny, FTX)

(...) I noticed roads like this when I got back into LEGO about a year ago, at an NILTC show. They're certainly cool, though I don't agree they look 1000% better. In particular, they come out very square; you couldn't make a nice curve this way, (...) (21 years ago, 4-May-05, to lugnet.org.us.lucny, FTX)

Hi everyone! It was a great weekend at Legoland. It was my son's first time. He's 5 and hasn't really been bitten by the LEGO bug. He loves Star Wars, so I thought this might be a good tie-in. It was! He's eat, sleeping and breathing LEGOs. The ISD (...) (21 years ago, 4-May-05, to lugnet.legoland.california, lugnet.org.us.lugola, lugnet.org.us.sandlug, lugnet.starwars)
