Good morning Brickpickers! 

 

I have been gone from LEGO for far too long! I grew up on the Space Coast of Florida and naturally I am a huge space nerd. I was a huge fan of LEGO in the 80s and had just about every space set there was. Naturally, when we took our son to see the LEGO movie, Benny was instantly my favorite character!

 

My son gravitated to LEGO immediately with his first DUPLO sets he got for Christmas in 2012, and then he found Star Wars. He hasn't slowed down since!

 

We have something we both enjoy and can do together. I am super excited to be getting back into this hobby. LEGO is responsible for my love of building and fixing things and played a huge role in my development with creative and technical thinking. I am also sure somehow that experience as a kid gave me the confidence to leave the corporate world 5 years ago and go back to working with my hands. (I'm a solar field technician) 

 

I'm excited to get building with you all!

Welcome dubzero. It sounds like you were heavy into Space while growing up same as me.

Welcome. I'm in Pensacola always great to see more Floridians on here.

Thanks TOK! I loved it. I've seen hundreds of launches IRL. My brother works at the Cape, so if you're ever in need of a rocket scientist...

Just discovered the existence of 10231 - Shuttle Expedition yesterday. I'm going to need to find a way to get my hands on one of those here one of these days! Must own for my personal collection.
