Christopher Williams and Jake Armerding at the Lion Club ...

Photo-A-Day #363 04/06/06

Tonight Allison and I went to see Christopher Williams play drums for Jake Armerding. Jake was also joined by Zach Hickman of the Josh Ritter Band.

I must have taken about 100 pictures but without using a flash it was very hard to get one where each guy was in focus. This was the only one. We had the front row, a great thing about seeing a show at a college, college kids hate the front row of everything, like classrooms and such.

The show was a lot of fun and we spoke with Susanne Williams after the show, it was nice to hang out and talk with her. We bought one of Jake’s CD’s, we are all caught up on Christopher’s CD’s.

Today I made a few ticket purchases. We are going to see Catie Curtis at TCAN on May 12, Christopher with Jars of Clay on April 29th and the Legend of Lucy Keyes movie on April 23rd. And Allison got me tickets to see Ellis Paul and Antje Duvekot on April 28th. Lots of Concerts and events coming up.

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.
