We are proud to announce that NovaLUG finally got off the ground and "on
track" on October 19th!

Congratulations!

Loved all the monorails! Also the incline with slanted car, and the 4.5v
display items. Clever battery box disguise!

I am taken by how much action you managed to pack into a small layout. I'm
also impressed (and pleased) that you were able to coordinate everything as
well as you did just by email. Track Designer is a great tool for this, it
lets you iterate plans. We often generate jpgs and mark up who has what area
for the next layout to help planning.

Great start! Here's hoping for many more show reports from NovaLUG!

Hi,

I'm pleased to annonce our FIRST participation at a Train Show.
It is in Truro, NS this comming saturday. We will launch a new
LUG called --- Novalug --- (for Nova Scotia LUG). We'll have a
modest layout only 90x60 inches, but that's a start!
We hope to have pics from this day.

If you want to know more about it, send me an e-mail

Best regards to all, Jean-Marc (and Gail and Lawrence)

Congratulations on your new LUG.
Hope the show goes well, and looking forward to the pictures.
Play well.

Seriously, I could go for a road trip.
If anyone in  rtlToronto wants to talk about this, I'm game.

It's only 1600 km :)

Take turns driving, that's 16 hours.  We leave Friday, there Saturday, and
drive home Sunday.  Excellent.

If rtl wants to think about it, I'm willing.

Florencville, NB.

Hi Andrew,
Are you sure you exchanged messages with me?  Because (sorry!) I don't
remember it at all.  I did once explain the basic local geography to someone
whose ancestors were from this area in loc.ca.nb.  Anyway, yes, I am in
Florenceville, and salutations to a fellow maritime lego nut.

Jean-Marc - How's it going?  Did you ever manage to get your Lego shipped over
from Europe?
I don't think I can commit to March 10 right now, but I'll definitely try to
make it.

I really want to meet all of you there and have our first official MARLUG
(Maritime Lego User Group) meeting.  Please reply to this message and send
me some more names if you're aware of more AFOL's in the Maritimes.  If you
can't make it but would still be interested in participating in future
activities, let me know and I'll keep you informed.  Thanks in advance for
your cooperation!

Best regards,

Jean-Marc (Lugnet member #98)

Hi Jean-Marc,

Getting together sounds great, but I'm working on a tight budget and Lego
related stuff has been cut way back lately.  I won't be making it to a meeting
this year, but I will keep future events in mind.  I think I'm the only AFOL
from PEI who has posted on Lugnet.  I had a brief exchange of messages with
Jeff Jardine sometime last year.  If I remember correctly, he's in
Florencville, NB.
