Colorado Youngster Constructs Lego Camp in Honor of Family Heritage
In a tribute to his family’s sheep ranching heritage, young Tasos Halandras took to his lego collection to construct a deatailed version of a sheep camp. The 10-year-old boy from Meeker, Colo. explained that he “built a sheep camp for my Papou Gus. He used to herd sheep but now he does not. My family [does] own eight sheep. I enjoyed building this because I can let my imagination run wild and it is part of my family heritage.” Tasos’ grandparents are Gus and Christine Halandras, also of Meeker. His grandmother Christine has either contributed to or written lamb cookbooks. She also has a bed & breakfast and catering service that serves lamb. Tasos’ great grandparents raised quite a few sheep in Meeker.
