This months meeting was a madhouse.  I brought a 280 pound unsorted lot of legos
for everyone to sift through and buy the pieces they needed/wanted from me and
somehow it trumped all the other activites we had planned.  plus the meeting
went about 2 hours longer than it was scheduled for.  As reed said, 'it was like
kids in a candy store.'  from my perspective it was really nice of everyone to
do as much work sorting and removing non lego pieces for me.  I think the best
deal of the day was when Neilsons found a rotation sensor for which they paid me
about a dime for since I was selling it strictly by weight.

also there were a lot of people picking out pieces and saying, 'wow I have never
seen this part before', or 'wow this one is like 1960s old'

It was really fun.  Reed showed off his big bens bricks Wheels and his steam
drive that he has added to his little black steam engine and it looks great.
with all the parts he got by the next show he will have a half dozen of them!

Added another member to the roster again this month. Brian, who took every
spacey piece that jason didn't get to first.

we got a couple pics that brian will post shortly.

Thanks to Jordan for hosting the meeting.

(...) The meeting was great fun. 280 lbs of LEGO is a lot of LEGO. I image that we will be sorting LEGO at meetings for months to come. Here are the couple of pictures that I was able to take until I was drawn back to the sorting (4 URLs) Pictured (...) (18 years ago, 1-May-07, to lugnet.org.us.ulug, FTX)
