Back From the Cape ...

This weekend Allison and I went to the Cape. The first time in about a month. So it was nice to get back down there. I was able to go out kayaking this weekend. It is sad that this was my first time all summer getting the boat out. Oh well, it was a really nice day and my Dad and I took the boats over to Long Pond and paddled almost to the end. The water was a little choppy and it was a little windy but it was really nice to get out on the water.

We had a BBQ today with Mom and Dad, Shelby, Tara, Erik, Renee, Grandma and Grandpa B., Grandpa Rick and Uncles Wayne and Roger and Aunt Cathy, and Sister Bernadette and Fr. Felix, and Jerry. It was nice to see everyone.

I spent most of the day on the beach reading "Lamb:The gospel according to Biff, Christ's Childhood Pal." Yeah I was laughing out loud almost all day. I'm nearly finished. I need to finish quickly since Allison is anxious to read the book too.

Review: Lumibricks Izakaya Building ...

The folks from Lumibricks sent me their latest building set, the Izakaya for free to build and review. Opinions are 100% my own. I've built a few sets from Lumibricks (formerly FunWhole) in the past and they are really fun and interesting. The photo above is of the Izakaya and also The Apartment. they are both part of a Cyberpunk theme called Neoncity. At this time there are also two additional buildings that you can build and add to this whole theme, the Game Stack and the Floating Train Station. The great things about these sets is that they light up. As you build you are also adding lights and wires and ways to illuminate the amazing build. Once you're done building you fire up some power and the lights blaze up. With Neoncity sets you get some incredible Nenon effects light signs and even neon tube lights. That is one of the coolest things about these sets is how the lights are incorporated into the build. Some very innovative bricks were made in order to thread the wiring...

2025 Family Ornament ...

Photo-A-Day 2.0 #02515 We put our tree up the other day and I had already bought the 2025 Hallmark Keepsake ornament for our yearly family photo ornament. I love these ornaments on the tree. We have them from 2005 to now.

Christmas Tree Is Up ...

Photo-A-Day 2.0 #02510 Yesterday we put up the trees and today we decided to decorate the tree after dinner. Our tree is now mostly our family photo ornaments. We have a bunch of ornaments but with over 20 years of family photo ornaments it look like the predominant ornament type that we'll see. We did get a 2025 Hallmark one as well and I have to select this year's photo.
