We made an early-morning visit to Henry Ford Museum yesterday, one of my favorite places. They've done some decorating for Christmas, it's really nice to go there this time of year.
The special exhibit was a display of iconic architectural structures, made with LEGOs. There was Ford Field (still under construction), Willis (Sears) Tower, the really tall building in Dubai, and Frank Lloyd Wright's "Fallingwater" home.

I love the massive power generators, and in many ways, I like the models of the power generators more than the real things. As soon as I retire, that's what I'm going to do - make some miniature power generators to power a doll house.

And, finally, to wish you a Merry Christmas, here are (left to right) Rigby and Mesko, who sometimes actually sleep like this.
From all of us here at The DEB Log, the journalism and editorial staff, proofreading department, photography lab, circulation department, and phone support center - Merry Christmas!
