     2008!

Let's start talking now about what we want to do for Maker Faire.

I'm sure we're already in agreement there should be a train layout.
But let's also not forget about the other factions besides
town/trains...

Space-heads - do you want to organize a moonbase?  Just display some spaceships?
Castle, anyone?
Sculptures?  Vignettes?  Dioramas?  Microscale?
