I'm in Kansas ...

I guess I titled this post that way so that on Friday I could post, I’m not in Kansas anymore, but that would be a very lame joke. Okay so I haven’t posted a real post in a while. I’ve been keeping up with the Photo-A-Day project and yesterday I posted a number of photos of downtown Fort Worth, mostly of buildings that I saw there because we only had about 1 hour to walk around so we really didn’t see much.

This morning I got up at 5:00am and headed to the airport for my flight to Kansas. I got to Wichita and headed to the hotel, it was very early so I could only get into a smoking room at that time of the morning, but I talked to the front desk person and she said I could come back and get a non-smoking room later. So I got upstairs and showered and shaved real quick and got on the road for a 2 hour drive to Salina, Kansas. And luckily for me I took everything with me, under the impression that I would return to a non-smoking room, you know one that didn’t stink like ass. Anyway when I got to Salina I found that everyone else was staying in Salina, so I called back to work and had my reservations switched. Thank goodness since I wasn’t looking forward to another 2 hour drive tonight and tomorrow morning.

So I’m now in a Fairfield Inn in Salina. And when I walked in I was at the reception desk and I turned to my left and saw the pool, I had a deja vu moment. The Fairfield Inn in Fresno California is exactly the same with the exact same layout with the pool and whirlpool set up exactly the same. It was weird. And with all the motels and hotels I’ve stayed at this is the first time that has happened to me.

There is a teaser trailer up for the Chronicles of Narnia. Looks good.

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.
