Tam-Awan Village
For someone like me who seldom leaves the computer for work and leisure, Tam-Awan village is really something of an exhilarating change. Tam-Awan simply means “to look” and what beauty it was to behold! With its natural splendor and scattering of the Igorot’s art and architecture, the …

Blue Diamond Park Amusements

The Quarrow Fly Rod; 9′ 7wt. 3 Pc.

Legos: Off Road Fire Rescue Set #7942
I like my Lego Off Road Fire Rescue Set #7942 that I recently purchased. It is a nice little set of 131 bricks and comes with one mini figure. The truck itself is probably the weak link of the set mostly because it does not have …

I usually do not review older clubs but I think this one deserves some praise.
