Dreams can come true!

[BrickBarn]

I'm Chris!  I have the great pleasure of owning a shop (Brick Barn) on the tiny island of Prince Edward in Canada.  In my shop I have a Lego Collection.  It began innocently enough one day in 1985 when I received my first Lego set 6061 Siege Tower.  Then I received some town sets, and some classic space and then more town.  Oh, and then there was that whole Pirates thing in 1989!

I loved Lego.  I loved creating whole realms with it.  Minutes became hours.  Hours became days.  Homework was forgotten.  But then one day, I was told I had to leave home (gasp) and get a job and  a career and make money to pay my own way through life.  So I did.  Lego was forgotten for a time.  It was the dark days (years).  

Then I opened my eyes one day and saw Lego had released 10030!  Drool.  So I bought it.  Built it.  And suddenly I remembered the good ol days.  One purchase lead to another and another.  Before I knew it, I had 600 sets, 350,000 bricks all neatly sorted into 100 25L tubs and 400 2L bins.

So I built a shop.  I quit my job.  Quit my career.  And I went to work spreading the joy of creative building to a new generation of collectors!

So with this time to truly enjoy building Lego projects again, I hope to share some of my MOCs here and elsewhere.  I look forward to this new journey.
