MAN those bring back some sweet memories of my childhood. Back in the mid-late 70s, I would save up 75 cents a week from not paying my cub scout dues, or I'd steal my sister's allowance they earned from doing chores (I never got allowance. It was part of being grounded for not doing my chores). So anyway when I finally had enough saved up I'd go to K Mart and buy model ships like these. I would spend hours working on them, sanding, glueing painting...and soaking the little decals and putting them on. It was tedious work...and to me MUCH more productive than doing homework or chores. Once the glue would dry, my neighbor and I would take them down to the creek where we used to catch catfish and bream and put them in the back seats of cars left unlocked around the neighborhood...and we would float them down the creek and shoot them till they sunk with BB guns...M80s too if we had any left from blowing up frogs, tailpipes and mailboxes. Once with a 12 gauge shotgun..Neighbor lady got a wee bit angry over that...sorry about the glass patio furniture-sheesh.I'm pretty sure I built the Bismark about 12 times. You should see what we did with model airplanes! Reader's Digest Version (Sister's room-String-Ceiling Fan-Hairspray-Lighter-BB Gun-model rocket/surface to air missile-Still grounded for life)

You really hit the mark on building and "enjoying". They were the Legos of my generation.

The rest of my story was fiction drummed up from being snowed in for 3 days...Delirium/cabin fever...
