I realized that. I was guilty of not responding, so I figured starting a
new one was a good way to go. It helped to heal my guilt :)

Yucky indeed! Too bad that this area (roads) of LEGO isn't fully compatable.
I missed the fact that I have 2 drive way plates, from the hospital set. 1
in use in KFC.
In other news, since it looks like we will most likely go grey, I'll start
putting floors in my buildings, so that they aren't attached to the
baseplates any longer.
In the building survey, most everything in this folder is available:

I've been working up some TD layouts, trying to leave ample room, and having
mediocre results. Trains aren't my strong suit. I think the best way is to
have a meeting and try stuff in the ABS and have a copy of TD there to
transcribe to.

I've been thinking, has anyone (besides Wayne) talked to local toy
shops/major retailers about doing a display at a shop? TRU comes to mind as
being very receptive to AFOLs in the past, via sculpture.
If everyone could pick one shop in their area, I'm sure we could cover a
lot of ground.
Possible meeting dates??:
Saturday May 11
Saturday May 18
Saturday May 25
