[Highland Park] lego star wars ATAT set for sale
by Meg Reilly 09 Mar '12

09 Mar '12

I got my son this set last Christmas. It's pretty awesome...over 1100 pieces, a battery pack so the completed ATAT (all terrain armored transport) can move around, etc. The problem is that the legos are not separated into bag 1, 2, etc. so finding the pieces is somewhat tedious and beyond my son's (and my) patience level. The box is open but complete, and I have somewhat sorted the pieces. It would be a good match for an older child or adult, or a really patient younger child. I paid $125 for the set, and will sell for $75.

[Highland Park] advice needed: local nonprofit looking for vans
by Meg Reilly 09 Mar '12

09 Mar '12

Hi neighbors, I'm helping Gwen's Girls, a nonprofit agency that helps at risk girls, acquire a couple of 7 passenger mini-vans. We would need them to be free or cheap, and in reasonably good condition. Does anyone have suggestions about where I might look? I've called some dealerships, and am planning to research auto auctions. Also if you have a van to donate, please let me know. The blue book value of your donation will be tax deductible. Thanks! Meg
