Whenever it rained, there was an area in my yard that filled up with water like a small pond. My brother and I would both build a handful of small boats (rafts, really) out of LEGO, step back about 30 feet, and rain down dirt clods on the vessels. Whoever had more of his own ships floating at the end won. I cringe now thinking about it, but I know we had a good time doing it. I wouldn't be surprised if there are still some LEGO pieces buried in the soil back there.

I ordered 2, LEGO series 20 mini figures off of amazon. Only one showed up, and it came packaged up in a hot dog bag ??‍♂️ Currently working with customer service to resolve the missing item.

Went to our very first Monster Jam on Sunday. Surprisingly, we all had a blast. My 7yo son got to high five Tom Meents, driver of Max-D Fire. Right after, he said, "I'm never washing this hand!" It was too cute. My wife somehow fell in love with Bakugan's driver. And even my 12 yo tween daughter had fun too. She was hooting and hollering. All in all, a good day of family fun.

Yes, childhood memories from NYC (Brooklyn) - Back in the 70's, we threw many toys off of rooftops, placed others in the streets waiting for the cars to crush them (fun times). Although we also threw darts in the air, towards each other (I caught the last one, in my leg, it just sat there dangling). Looking back - Perhaps not very smart, but at least we quickly learned to stop doing that.

Metallica....lol...Great machine that the game play is as much fun today as it was when I bought it.

You can come play horseshoes at our house... we often have it set up during the summer. Timber Toss is also good, esp when adult beverages are being enjoyed.

I have very found memories of Lawn Darts. I don't even see horse shoes being thrown anymore either. Now adults are just throwing bean bags at one another. This is the problem today, too many safety features everywhere. lol

$10B from Bezos to 'help' with climate change. That's about $2.5b per degree. (Remove AMZ fee rant here). I seem to have the opposite problem as the pics in the posts. Lol on the nail polish in the giant box. I'm returning a set from AMZ for the 3rd time today because they keep sending me the same set in bubble mailers. https://www.msn.com/en-us/money/companies/shoppers-slam-amazon-for-unnecessary-packaging-as-jeff-bezos-pledges-dollar10-billion-to-fight-climate-change/ar-BB107m7i

I did that as a kid. But the competition was to see whose LEGO car survived the other guy's LEGO car. I won. I broke my friend's LEGO... lol.

Also the 10199 winter toy shop

I picked up a bulk lot of Harry Potter sets - including 10217 - so this was my Sunday build. I love this set, always a pleasure to build. This one is in very nice condition too.

Totally forgot I had already built the pond! So here’s a pic of the two of them together.

From@MusiKyle, I bought all the parts of a second Pirate Roller Coaster (he kept the tracks). Win-win for both of us - he wanted another set of tracks; I wanted everything but the tracks. So he cracked one open for the both of us. So thanks for a smooth and quick transaction. I’m looking forward to building out my pirate coaster some more. And I look forward to seeing what he does with that extra track.

begging to be your new bp avatar.... cmon you know you want to.

Finally get to be 'that guy' to post a great find!
