This week: Luke Skywalker, my favorite Jedi & who I wanted to be, as a kid.

Star Wars Escape From Death Star board game. Most of the cover has an image of a Tie Fighter shooting at an X-Wing, while the right quarter of the box cover has eight images of the characters Luke Skywalker, Princess Leia, Han Solo, Chewbacca, Darth Vader, a Stormtrooper, R2-D2, and C-3PO.

The Escape From Death Star game board, which has multiple circles radiating out from the lower right corner, designated the trash compactor, all lines moving toward the upper left corner, which has the Millennium Falcon and myriad Tie Fighters. All of this is overlaid on an image of the quarter of the Death Star with its laser cannon. Beside the gameboard is the spinner, with R2 on it, and playing cards.

Another angle of the Escape From Death Star game board, plus spinner and playing cards.

It's Star Wars Sunday!

Who says you can't domesticate an AT-AT to lay on their backs for belly rubs?

Who's a good little AT-AT?

I'm just about to start bag four of the AT-AT Lego build.

I'm always torn between enjoying the build and not wanting it to end.

Me, 1978, hoping Dad can capture the moment the Death Star cannon "explodes." It is less dramatic than I see in my mind. #StarWarsSunday
