I want to apologize for the lack of posts. Life is busy most viewers may or may not know I have a one year old son and a daughter on the way in January so planning for that has taken over a lot of my time.
However; PennLUG has many things in store for the general public. Firstly our annual America on Wheel’s planning is underway and this year’s layout should be amazing! If you missed it last year absolutely come out this year. – http://www.americaonwheels.org
Also coming next year is Philly Brickfest and rest assured we’ve got some BIG plans for that as it’s in our backyard and we’re super excited. Make sure you get your tickets! – http://phillybrickfest.com
