Star Wars Revisited

Star Wars has certainly stood the test of time. I vividly remember going to the Barracks Road movie theater to see the original release in 1977, and having to leave in the middle because Molly got too scared. Dad did such a great Jabba the Hut impression at the dinner table!

I even remember seeing the re-release in theaters when I lived in Washington, D.C., sometime in the late 1990's.

Here in the 21st century, Anson had Star Wars bedding until he got "too old" for it.

Something I suspect he'll never grow out of is his love of Legos. Check out his latest creation, the Millennium Falcon, captained by Han Solo.




Here's good old Han Solo at the controls.


 A Star Wars scene isn't complete without a light saber fight.


Note Princess Leia, Luke Skywalker, and Chewbacca watching the action.

That is an impressive lego structure! I actually remember leaving Star Wars as well. Must be one of my first memories since I was about 2.
