A Pile of White Bricks

Our life never seems simpler than when we stop at a mound of Lego and start building. My sons and I took that opportunity at the FIRST Championship in Detroit as a break from the intense robotics competitions and innovative artificial intelligence exhibits.

My younger built a beautiful fountain and we both struggled to capture how nicely the light shone through it.

My older got to build with Stray Dog and a teenager who wanted advice on his hovering hot rod.

I chatted with other builders and helped them find pieces as I waited for inspiration. There were already lots of spaceships, buildings, team numbers, and robots, so I tried my hand at a tree.

I’ve only seen these leaf elements in green before and wondered how organic they could look in white. Although fragile, I was pleased to add my creation to the crowded display table.

I also added some of those elements to a satellite.


Have a God blessed day,
