Winter is coming

Hi all,
First up, I just wanted to apologize for my six month hiatus. I've been blogging about LEGO for nine years now, and from time to time I've just gotten a bit run down and distracted from my family of blogs. However, in the meantime, I'm constantly going through Flickr, Brickshelf, and other sites, and probably every day I bookmark a few more things that I keep meaning to post. I've gotten a couple of nice notes asking where I've been, and I guess it's time to come back. Also, during the year I save up LEGO books to review as people are getting ready for Christmas, and want to get those posted. And so, back to blogging. Hopefully I won't have too many interruptions in the near future. I've certainly got a backlog of great creations to feature.

MSP recently posted this great map of Westeros. I have to admit that I haven't read or watched Game of Thrones, so I don't know the settings, but even I recognize the giant ice wall.

A lot snugger

Birgitte Jonsgard took her wonderful Snugburg and microfied it.

History of the World

Lasse Vestergård built this wonderful History of the World.

Ye Olde Book of Castle

Justin M made this great castle scene. It's part of an opening book, which is really cool. This is his entry in round 2 of the MOColympics.

Happy birthday, Classic-Castle!

In addition to maintaining my little family of LEGO blogs, I'm also actively involved in Classic-Castle.com, the source for all your LEGO Castle needs. Classic-Castle just turned ten years old! In recognition of that, let's feature something appropriately themed. Here is Serpent Shores, built by Siercon and Coral for the most recent Iron Builder.
