JUNE 2008
A quiet group for Derek's last meeting before he leaves to Kansas-stan. Kunie and Robert each surprised the other with their NBM engraved bricks, both sets from Tommy Armstrong oddly enough.
Friend and friend.
Father and son.
Boyfriend and girlfriend.
Robert Gurskey shows his work for the upcoming NBM event.
Nick Kappatos stares down a rocket launcher.
You know it's good when it hardly resembles LEGO at all!
Magnus et al try to comprehend rules of a new game.
Not twins; just the same shirt.

MAY 2008
This month witnessed the building excitement of our upcoming National Building Museum event in June. Several AFOLs were constructing specifically for that.
AFOLs can read too.

MARCH 2008
We tried out yet another library. The Dolley Madison Library put us even closer to Tysons Corner LEGO store than previously. The space was sizable and roomy, with plenty of tables.
Mike Crafts' linen Lego panels really transformed the room!
Everyone busy at their own tables.
Kunie and Tony looking over the 1st print issue of BrickJournal magazine. Yay!
Marian Hardy inspecting John Rudy's work.
Kunie's colorful Sudoku game was hit with the men. Many spent a long time struggling with it.
Leni Perales building the Eifel Tower with Gustavo Perez-Bonany.
Todd's Battleship game.
Rich's excellent little Starship Enterprise (despite that it includes a few clone pieces! Ack!)
John Rudy's street scene.
Derek's table bustling with sorting activities.

Two dudes and a table full of LEGO. What more do you want?

Meeting
Once you know the date and place of our next meeting, simply show up!
Due to new location restrictions, the meeting time and location change each month. Consult the calendar for details. We no longer have full-day meetings from 10-5pm like we once did.
Show up any time during our meeting. Leave any time you like. Simple, eh?
