Lone Ranger Legos

I have just finished putting together the last set that I received as a Christmas gift.
The set that are shown are all I have been able to buy.
The Stagecoach 79108.
Colby City Showdown 79109.
Constitution Train Chase 79111.







 
The following pictures are of those I arranged as Christmas decorations. I like Lego trains so I added one to the scene. I also like The Walking Dead TV show. See if you can locate any Zombies here.





 
There are so many sets that I am behind on buying.
 
Once I have the cats gone from my Lego area I can more sets back together. They like to play with them and move the figures around the house while we are a sleep.

Lego Christmas Gifts


First of all my family and I celebrate Christmas. God sent Jesus to earth to be our Lord and Savior. We give each other gives. If you do not celebrate Christmas, you can still get information concerning whatever information I post here.

I have gotten a few set this year including Disney’s “The Lone Ranger Constitution Train Chase” set, Lego City “Museum Break-in” set, and the Lego Creator “3in1 Family House”. These three are nice sets that I will enjoy building. I have to get some shelves together to put them on. Right now I have a few sitting on some selves that my wife’s cats can get on top of and when they get on top they stretch down to a lower lever and do a King Kong arm swing on them and their claws grab stuff. I was going to post another set of the Lone Ranger called “Stagecoach Escape” but it was late when I went off to bed, that I put it up but the cats wanted to see it ASAP. When I checked on it the next day, they had torn off two of the wheels and hid the safe from my on the floor under the desk. I think they even scared away the horses. Once I have The Lone Range sets all together I will post more of each picture sets.
I enjoy putting these set together along with any other sets. But I have limited space to put then to display so I break them down and put them in big boxes with all the other sets. This year I plan to rebuild each of my sets and upload pictures here so everyone else can see them. If anyone ever has any questions please ask or comment.

A fresh new start 2012

It is a fresh new start even if it is at the end of September. I just received my first blogging check from Google. I have been "trying" to blog for close to two years now. There have finally been enough views and clicks to this for them to write me a check. So when that happened I felt that I had to start again and blog.
My wife calls it "found money" so I can do and spend it on anything I wanted. So think I'm getting a couple of new sets of Lego. The new haunted house set and one other set. I will post pictures and a review of the set right here in time for Christmas shopping.
Also before the end of the year, my wife and I are going to be building and blogging a house on wheels. A tiny house. We are currently looking for the right size trailer. After that major purchase, we will start designing and building. I can't wait for that one.
Please check back for all these and a lot more.

More lights

My sister and dad passed through on their way to Florida yesterday so after a great dinner at J Peters in down town Anderson, I had to set up the light display of what I had so far to find out what they think about it. The presentation still has only 5 channels showing. I found an old lit reindeer up in the attic so I plugged it in to number 7. It was not LED so the light lights looked a little yellow. I thought about putting new LED lights on it but it would cost me too much money so I decided to leave it alone. My sister ask me if she could video record it. I told her she could but it wasn't going to looks good as it will be in another couple of weeks. But she wanted to anyway. So from this point on there will be no other kind of Christmas lights. Unless I find a few more reindeer. next post I will try to add some pictures maybe a video.

It is getting to look a lot like Christmas

As some people have seen over the Internet and YouTube, more and more people are setting up syncrinized Chirstams light on their house. Well this year I have set out to do the same. Last month I bought from Light-O-Rama from my first 16 channel light box. It was easy to plug in and set up. The software was downloaded from their website.

I have set up to put just the LED mini lights. So far I have only used the ones that are being sold at Target stores. They are the Target brand lights. 60 strand lights for just under $8. So far I have 36 strands plus the 6 strands of white icicle lights. I have built wooden frames for the windows and doors to attach lights on. To date I only have 2,500 LED lights.

The music I have chosen is small at this time. I did not start on it soon enough and have not been able to put time in to getting more songs added. So as the time gets closer to Christmas I should add more songs to the play list. I'll post pictures and of course videos when closer to December.
