I don't like blank spaces so I have to post something in my new blog!

I really don't have anything weighty to discuss as it pertains to the world of LEGO right now.  Unlike some of my fellow compadres, I don't have a great debate to start up or anything like that. 

I did order the new Holiday Train yesterday from S@H.  We want to use it for an upcoming holiday-themed show, but none of us own it yet.  I felt it was a great excuse to finally pick it up!  I, of course, bought the version with the track, motor, regulator, etc.  I might as well get all of the useful items, too!  Besides, it shows TLC that us train people really want more trains if we continue to buy them.

I also bought a few of the new Designer Mosaic sets that include clear baseplates.  I am really excited about receiving those!!  I am in the midst of building a new city park and I think those baseplates could come in handy for the fountain I am working on.

That's about it for now!  I'll keep everyone posted.  It is nice having an actual LEGO blog!!  I usually post my LEGO-related babble in my LiveJournal, which tends to bore my friends there to tears.
