Dad’s Birthday 2024

Photo-A-Day 2.0 #01980

This morning I finished work and drove to Cape Cod to my parent’s house to visit with them for my Dad’s birthday. He had a classic car show that afternoon so I took a short nap and then headed over to the Falmouth Harbor bandshell to see the show. The weather turned fairly quickly after I had arrived so I got one pass around the show to see all the cars and then I ran home to get my Dad’s van so that I could bring it back and help pack up all the stuff to bring to the storage locker that the car club has.

One of the more interesting cars was this one. I guess it does drag races or something, looks fast. I’m not sure what the whole powered by water thing means but that is interesting. We cleaned up from the show and then went home and Dad opened some of his birthday gifts. We got him the shirt in the photo above. I thought it was appropriate. I do love an interesting shirt. You’ll see later this week.

Tonight we went over to the Coonamessett for dinner. I got the pork belly and scallops and it was excellent. We went home and enjoyed some cake and ice cream and I stayed the night on the Cape.

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.
