More Legos!!!
I recently got some more Lego's. I am always excited for more Legos.
Here is my castle. I have always wanted one but they are usually quite expensive. This one was on sale for $50.00. So I snatched it up pretty quick. The castle has a skeleton, ghost, catapults, a dog, trap door, and the it also houses the local wizard. He is in the top part.
This is the back of it. The Kings chair swivels. The guy in the bottom is a blacksmith/jail man. There is a skeleton in still in chains in the basement. He is not very tidy.
Here is my Boeing 787. It is an officially licensed product. It is pretty big. Good thing I just put up more shelves in my room.
Here is a comparison between the two. Sorry about the bad photo.
Now I can't wait until the other sets arrive!

RC Boating
This is a few pictures from when a few of us went boating. It was a nice Saturday morning in the shade. It did start getting hot after noon but we were about ready to go at that point. It was a pleasant time. There were no major incidents. Just a few bumps. It was just a very pleasant time with friends.
The captain got to take his sail boat out for a spin when the wind wasn't too bad. But unfortunately the wind died off promptly after setting sail.
You can see how nice and calm the water is.
It was nice that the nitro powered boat was up and running. There is just something about hearing the roar of the engine. The electrics are so quiet.
The geese came and played for a bit. They weren't too afraid of the boats. We didn't have much running at the time. They just came and ate. The ducks on the other hand aren't too fond of the boats. They usually swim off pretty fast.
They don't even like to swim around my duck. It is too bad. The ducks are pretty good swimmers and can go quite fast. Faster than my duck can.
Of course the little boats had to get out and play a game of tag. This is one tag that happened.
This one is a near miss. It was pretty close though.
