The photos I took are on the web:
http://olson.pair.com/gardenslug/nov11/index.html
They are in a kludgy catalog layout with a few credits. Yell at me if I goofed
up any credits. (In particular, whose knights were those? Dan's or Jim's? Who
built the red-and-white station, or the fuel tank?)
Here's what we saw:
Andy Lynch had to leave earliest.
He brought along some castle buildings, an 8" minifig, and a minifig of himself.
Bruce Shaw brought a Technic car, some super aircraft, a ship, and trains.
Jim Roskiewicz brought a Foosball game (bricks, not Soccer sets!) TWO
OUTSTANDING MOSAICS of his daughters, hoppers in 4 colors, a table from a
roundhouse in progress, a trestle bridge, and a rather large and imposing coal
station.
Cletus Romano brought trains, trains, track, and more trains, and at least one
station. Thanks for bringing the trains! He kept saying there were more, too...
The fancy white palace -- was that Cletus or Dan Allen?
I think Dan Allen brought two parties of knights challenging in a wood.. very
exciting.
Erik Olson brought his diner building, a green/white house, a bank facade, and
his tan/chocolate Tudor building.
Chris Weeks brought some great old parts and a lot of new sorted parts, and ran
the trains for us.
Also attending were Bianca Nebab, Matt Karius (whose older daughter played
quietly with my brick pile until the end) and Nicole who built King Leo's
Castle.
The central activity was the train setup, which featured two or more loops and
changed as the day went on.
Pizza score: 2.
Some parts trading went on sporadically, and Technic Box #2 did some business
and will move on now. Even with a hastily constituted Jamabalaya jury nobody was
sure of any part's value. Apparently we are all Technic dummies but we did our
best.
Unfortunately the LUG box mysteriously turned for home and was not on hand.
No spacecraft were present either. (Though Dan Allen had classic spacemen.)
My apologies if I've overlooked or somehow mixed up the who and what.
The next meeting has been postponed til after the holidays--locations and dates
are up for grabs.
-Erik

| Thanks for the pictures, Erik. Jim's coal station looks bigger somehow up close, but it is awesome even in the pictures. I'd love to see pictures of it with minifigures working it. I think PB110019 is Cletus' Bellville Station. I like the windows. (...) (24 years ago, 17-Nov-00, to lugnet.org.us.gardenslug)
