Come From Away

Photo-A-Day 2.0 #01516

Tonight Allison and I went to PPAC to see the musical, Come From Away. This was a spectacular show. I wasn’t that invested or excited to see it but got tickets because Allison was so excited to see it. I was just going to get tickets so that she and a friend could see it but I am glad that I was the one who went with her. I loved it.

The play is about a small town in Newfoundland called Gather and they used to have the world’s largest airport. On September 11, 2001 that airport went back into use for several days to take flights that were diverted and the town population doubled in size overnight. The play is about how the citizens responded to the emergency and how the displaced passengers and residents made lifelong friendships through such a traumatic event. One of the best plays I’ve ever seen.

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. 

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.
