Mars-Curious

I’ve kept my Lego lust in check for decades now, but I could not resist the lure of the amazing Curiosity rover model.

In rationalizing my order, I figured that I could keep it in my office as a nice conversation piece slash distraction and that the girls would enjoy assembling the kit with me.

The model was challenging enough that we had to spread out the work over several hour-long sessions, but the girls did almost all of the assembly on their own, and the result was great.

After an initial mission to map the northeastern corner of the dining room table, Curiosity is now in my office, attempting to find water or signs of intelligence. (So far, it’s only detected coffee and me.)
