Okay, this is a week too late, but…

It’s still fun! According to this article on Wired News, Portland, Oregan hosted BrickFest PDX over the President’s Day weekend. From the description, it was LEGOs as far as the eye could see in all their creative glory. This is the first time I’ve heard of such a festival, but it makes sense. Those of us who are LEGO fanatics would totally go for this kind of thing. (Yes, I’m a LEGO nut. It’s just in remission right now.)
Anyway, several clubs got together to put this on. They had a big “shared” village that every group helped to set up, but they also had individual displays. Some of these looked spectacular. The LEGO roller-coaster has to be seen to be believed. The article on Wired News has pictures.
Hey, it’s Friday. Let your imagination run wild!
