lol - and Steve was giving Dan Parker grief this weekend for his email prowess, or lack thereof. A li’l case of the pot calling the kettle here, eh Steve? ;)

GATS was a fun show, even though the open freight door during loading froze us. We got to introduce the LEGOHood, a series of row houses based on essentially the same footprint (give or take) that Steve saw. He built the first half dozen, the rest of us chipped in. The detail on some of the houses was incredible (not mine), I wish I’d gotten some more closeups. Ah well, next time.

Also, Bob Kojima’s big Technic bridge was a hit. It was fun to watch it boing up and down when Dave VinZant’s massive TGV roared over it. I was thinking about taking bets on how long until it gave way and crashed into Frank Filz’ coastal scene underneath. But it held.
