When I was in Cleveland a few weeks ago for my Grandmother's funeral, my dad and I went over to his parents house to check in and see the amazing progress my Uncle Tom has made in cleaning the place up. Dad and Uncle Tom had a number of toy related items that they let me take home to my kids. I have to say...old toys are so darn cool! I brought back a really cool building set called "Kenner's Girders and Panels Building Set" which is like a lego set for the 60's. It was created during a time of insane development in our country and I am sure kids who were driving around their cities seeing skyscrapers and new roads being built were attracted to the idea of a toy that let them model that out on a smaller scale.
The structure you see in the pictures below were created by Ava and I. They may not last long b/c when I asked Branson if he wanted to play cars with the building he said "no, I want to knock it down." Ouch. Guess he does not like our sense of architectural style...
