    Legos!

    S'Knot (who isn't "small" anymore) found some Legos as he was packing up his room. He was giddy, and played with them for a while!

    I just found this Lego vid, looks like fun: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r8yHPoxU-Bs

    Great video -- I notice it was posted by an Edmonton city councilman. Clever way to express a vision for a city with many challenges!

    Apparently Don has an extensive Lego collection, and a neighbor kid helped him build a city for the pictures!

    I miss my Legos. DBF is still a Lego fiend--at least, when it comes to the more complex Star Wars sets.

    We have decided we should never reproduce--because of Legos. Both our mothers have expressed the desire to buy the hypothetical child the largest buckets of Legos possible and then sit back and let us enjoy the result. We'd be doomed.
    At least I don't leave slime trails.

    My husband and I have a bunch of Legos. Heck I've bought some of the ones they made for the Ferrari F1 team.

    My partner and I played with legos on our first date. We built vehicles and raced while coming up with ridiculous stories about them. He's a keeper.

    I love her blog, too! I thought life in Edmonton would be like what she writes about. But we made the mistake of letting our realtor guide which neighborhoods to focus on. Financially we made a good choice, but in terms of bike-ability, I didn't feel very safe going outside certain arterial boundaries. Far too car-oriented, where we were. Appearances deceived us. oh well.

    This reminded me of this comic -- it's not Legos - but it is cute
