On Monday I am heading to Boston for a short (two day) trip. Conveniently enough, our Boston Office (which is actually in Waltham) is fairly close (Trapelo Road) to the Construction Site. I am planing to swing by the Construction Site around the (...) (24 years ago, 27-Jul-00, to lugnet.org.us.nelug)

(...) Well I think we probably just doubled our Train size :-). I havn't had much time to build lately but I am trying to do a car other than a Boxcar for variety. I did add 2 buildings to my town scene fairly recently which will of course be at the (...) (24 years ago, 27-Jul-00, to lugnet.org.us.nelug)

(...) Weird! There's a big chance I might be going to Maine immediately *after* the BBQ (as in, I might have a bag packed in my Jeep while I'm there) to attend the family reunion of my NLSO. I know that has nothing to do with Lego or NELUG, but the (...) (24 years ago, 25-Jul-00, to lugnet.org.us.nelug)

(...) Well I finally got the OK from the NLSO. However, we'll be in Maine From Friday 'til Saturday morning visiting the in-laws, so we won't make it before 4:00 or 5:00pm. If this is OK, and people will still be there, we'd love to stop in, and (...) (24 years ago, 25-Jul-00, to lugnet.org.us.nelug)

(...) As one of those who has rampantly purchased snow blowers, I'm sorry to report that they do not come with bogie plates ... it's gonna be a tiles-and-2x2-tile-with-peg sort of porposition from my corner. I have a whole slieu of wheels and (...) (24 years ago, 25-Jul-00, to lugnet.org.us.nelug)

(...) Well I think there is a reason why the GMLTC is the only group doing a layout like this. They are the only ones with 2.1 million bricks to work with. Personally I don't think we would come remotely close to that many if you took all of our (...) (24 years ago, 24-Jul-00, to lugnet.org.us.nelug)
