This is not a "Reminiscing" article, though it seems like one. Possibly it could be added to to make a nice "Reminiscing" piece, but this just struck my fancy today. I originally wrote it for my personal blog, and re-read it this morning. I did some editing and decided to post here. Enjoy.
I had a love affair with Tinker Toys when I was a kid. Well, I guess you could say I still do. I loved creating cityscapes with those toys. When I talk about Tinker Toys, I'm talking about the old, wooden ones, not the supersized plastic pieces of crap being sold today.
