Hi Everyone,
Just a heads up to let you know that there will be a LEGO Town at the Jack Frost
Festival this coming weekend in Charlottetown, PEI at the Confederation Court
Mall. There will be representatives from NovaLUG (http://novalug.ca) doing
demonstrations and building Lego on site. TLC has sent along bricks for the
public to play with as well as some models and contest with prizes!
For details on the festival:

Hope to see you there!

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!

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.

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.
