Love, Laughter and Legos A fun-loving couple from Arnold has found the perfect pastime — building LEGO sets together. While some folks spend their free time golfing or fishing, Harvey Foran would rather dive into a pile of bricks and, with the help of his wife Barb, turn them into something amazing. The duo works side by side, sorting bricks and snapping sets together, piece by piece. (They’ve completed over 500 LEGO sets so far!) It’s a hobby that keeps their hands busy, their minds sharp, and their bond stronger than a well-clicked LEGO brick.
