Autumn is a lovely season–so many bright colors! I had fun with some new(ish) bright yellow leaves to create a bright autumn waterwheel scene!

Lighthouses are fascinating–they’re so tall, and solitary–they inspire you with a feeling of confidence and safety. I don’t know if that’s why my mom loves lighthouses, or if there’s some other reason, but I know she has not-so-secretly wanted a LEGO lighthouse for a long time. So I finally built her one!

An abandoned gas station – something I’ve always wanted to build! Seriously, I have. I pass quite a few abandoned stations on my way to the grocery store every two weeks. Granted, they don’t have quite as much random stuff lying around…
Build Log: Seaside Fort
I’ve been meaning to build an 18th century fort for over a year now. Finally got my life together and did it.

Read on for a walk through four days of building!
