Hotel Bothwell ...

serpent
I am in Sedalia, Missouri and staying at the Hotel Bothwell in historic downtown Sedalia, Missouri. This is one town that rolls up the sidewalks at 5:00pm sharp. I walked around and nothing was open except for two comic book stores (directly across the street from each other.) 

I ran over to Yeager’s Harley Davidson to pick up a pin. They were sold out of them, (It was the generic round pin anyways, oh well, I added their card to the shops I need to call and have the pins shipped to me.) They did give me a free generic black keychain for free, that was nice of them. This is also home of the Missouri State Fair which starts in 3 days. I’m always either to early or too late for these things. 

Oh and I finished Serpent, the first book in the Kurt Austin series by Clive Cussler. A good start to a new and exciting series. Can’t wait to read the next books. After that was finished I started reading Bearing an Hourglass by Piers Anthony, the second book in the Incarnations of Immortality series. This one is about Time and the man character has to live his life in reverse. Very interesting so far.


I took a few pictures around the area.

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...

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.
