LEGOS Turn 50!

I joined the LEGO club recently. This blog is dedicated to LEGOs because this month LEGOs are turning 50. Please notice my poll to the right.

Do you remember my determination blog? This Christmas I got three LEGO sets. I finished two of them on New Years Eve and the last two days later. Here are the photos of all of them closed and then all of them opened.





I hope my next blog will be of me playing my guitar. Even though I started it before I did this one, it's hard to make. See you at the next blog!

Those are two of the most impressive Lego constructions I've ever seen, Parrish, and I'm enormously proud of you for making them. I'm interested in seeing both the outside and the complicated inside of the gray skyship [is it a skyship?]when I come out there in March. I think they will be fun to play stories with. How many pieces does it have? I send you and your family very much love.

Once, when your Gramp-A-Long was just your age, I really really wanted something called an Erector Set. It is metal girders and screws and bolts and stuff like that. I was so excited when I got it at Christmas that I jumped up and down and fell over the wrappings and sprawled out over the floor while my sisters squealed. Sometime after New Year's Day, I finished building the Sputnik launcher. Do you know what Sputnik is? Anyway, we've come a long way from the Erector set I now have in my bedroom as a decoration to the Star Wars cruiser of Legos you've got today. Don't lose your Legos. You might find you still want them when you are a grampaw. The best part of being a boy is that you can still be a boy even if you are old. Ask your mom if you don't understand that sentence.

I drove by the Lego factory in Enfield, Connecticut this summer. They have huge Lego blocks in the front yard. Next summer I will see if they will let me take a tour.

P, you are amazing. I have been playing with Legos for a long, long, long time and I have never put together a set with as many parts as even one of your sets. Have you considered going into the construction industry? I bet you'd be really good at it.
