Mom made an overnight visit to us on Tuesday. As a bonus beyond nice socialisation she brought, among other things, all my (and a bunch of my brother's) old Lego.

Heap of Lego on the floor

This is about one third of it.

You know you'd pour it all over the floor too.

One of the things I started to feel like building when we visited her last time and went through the collection was a huge castle. But once we got it over here that's not what I started with.

Not quite anyway. I spent a few happy hours last night and tonight on this:

Lego ship/castle hybrid

Ahoy.

Sole rower of the ship

This guy possibly has one of the tougher jobs a minifigure can get.

Size comparison ship - milk package

Uncharted island ahoy! All hands prepare for boarding!

The next logical step is, I guess, some kind of competition or target for this ... thing. We'll see. There are plenty of pieces left in any case.
