Great Job . Is your son addicted to them now?

These are great training tools for following directions.

My nephews learned A Lot.
Me , I don't Need no Stinking Instruction's

I bought some of the old kits like that several years ago from brickset.

My Nephews would come over and build the new sets and I got addicted.

They grew up before I got them building ones like that in your 1st picture.

I think about 2016 they were to big to come over and play Lego's any more.

I still have several sets.
They are in unopen boxes .

Set 42008, 42009 and 42043 are just a few.
Of course I bought them for my Nephews

Also, I don't know why there is a set in there called the Yellow Submarine.

To me that looks like overkill trailer and tractor for the size of the load , or the picture is deceiving.
But sure is impressive .

Looks like your neighbor was lucky they didn't lose part of the house too.

It's not uncommon for a woman to show up at the emergency room with a mascara brush stuck in their eye.

was printed in the early 1920's i think, describes life on a sailing ship globetrotting around the world.

Re: Random Photos ‘You took’

I framed this old poster. Now I just need a place to hang it and the rest of the junk.

I obviously didn't spring for the non glare glass.
