I just thought I would mention that while I have taken a break from building, I am still displaying my stuff as a member of the Michigan Lego Train Club:
November 25th train show in Saline:

The dark brown and tan skyscraper in the foreground is Spencer's replica of New York's American International Building in lower Manhattan which due to the smaller scale and selective compression is shorter than the Dave Stott Building when if at the same scale it would be more than twice as high!
December 13-16 display at Detroit's Max M Fisher Music Center for DSO Home for the Holidays concerts:

My replica of the Detroit Public Library (main branch) is the large white building in the foreground.
A snowstorm hit Detroit yesterday morning dumping about 10 inches of snow. Since that was the last day of the display; I had to drive back home from Orchestra Hall in a 2 wheel drive Cherokee packed with fragile Lego buildings on snow covered roads - not fun!
