Trip to Potsdam ...

Potsdam

Photo-A-Day #180 10/05/05

Today I drove from North Attleboro, MA to Potsdam, NY. It was a long ride but very enjoyable because of the leaves turning colors on the trees and the lack of traffic on the road. I was also listening to the Chronicles of Narnia and finished The Magician’s Nephew and three of the four CD’s for The Lion, The Witch, and The Wardrobe. I had read these books back in high school and loved them very much. Neil and Andrea lent the CD’s to Allison and I a while back and Allison has already listened to the first two books. I should be well on my way through book four by the drive home on Friday.

So On my ride up I stopped at many different areas to take pictures. I had lunch in Lake Placid at Jack Frost’s and finally arrived in Potsdam to stay at the Clarkson Inn. If you would like to see the other pictures check them out at my Flickr account. I opened that account the other day. More photos More places to put them.

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.
