Photo-A-Day #1243

This weekend I picked up my box of LEGO from the Cape. Inside I found all sorts of pieces. When I got home I added the 30 minimen to the mix.

Tonight I wasn’t doing well for photograph ideas so I dumped out the contents onto the living room table and began building a few things.

I found three precursors to the miniman in my collection. Just check out how far this guy has gone in 30 years.

I think I will work on something for the miniman contest from Gizmodo. In the end I made a few vehicles including a “hot rod” and an airplane.

Three more days till vacation. I can’t wait. Three more demos to do and then two weeks of fun in the sun.

I looked for the Praying Mantis from yesterday and today I found 6 of them, all huge and all over the yard. I also found another molted shell of a Praying Mantis. Yesterday I said it was a dead one but it wasn’t it was a molted shell and it comes off in one whole piece. What remains is so delicate. I will try and photograph one tomorrow.
