Photo-A-Day 2.0 #02561 Today was the first snow of the year. We got enough to have to shovel but not enough to pull out the snowblower. I ended up going out during my break and shoveling off the snow from our neighbor and then I had Andy shovel the rest around our house. Then got some sleep.

Photo-A-Day 2.0 #02560 With a day off tomorrow andy has been preparing for a D&D session with friends. One thing that andy has done to prepare is to create several Wanted posters for the campaign. Andy had purchased some special paper for one of their new hobbies, Wax seals. Andy has been using the papers for letters but tonight they made some cool wanted posters. Andy found some files of characters to point and on the distressed papers and then used paint to mark up the posters and add Wanted to the top of each one. I thought that was pretty slick.

Photo-A-Day 2.0 #02559 A while back I bought some different off brand LEGO like sets from TEMU. This three headed dragon was in a blind box and I had no clue that I had ordered it because it was a while ago. So it was fun to see this and build it tonight. Took me several hours but since we had nothing going on at work tonight I had the time. Thi was where I was at 11:58pm.  Finished Dragon

Photo-A-Day 2.0 #02558 I popped in on Eva before heading to work tonight and she was working on her costume for tomorrow's Steampunk Festival. She's volunteering at the event and has put together a rather cool outfit. She needed my steampunk goggles to finish it off so I grabbed them for her. I hope it is a super fun day tomorrow.

Photo-A-Day 2.0 #02557 LEGO has release two Back To The Future Delorean sets. This one above is the latest set and it is at a much better price point. I picked it up and also made sure to grad the light kit from Briksmax so that I could have it lit up for display. I'm trying to figure out a rig to display it on the wall in the over mode and also keep the battery pack attached to the bottom. The battery pack is huge so hiding it will be interesting.

Photo-A-Day 2.0 #02556 Today was a good comic book day because I had two of my favorites ready to pick up. The ongoing G.I. JOE and Transformers comics were great. I also get G.I. JOE: A Real American Hero which continues the story from the 80's, it is good but not my favorite. The great thing about the other two was some major reveals. Both had jaw dropping final panels. I did not see one of the twists coming at all and the other was insane. I'm loving these series and I also continue my reread of the Classic Transformers comics including many of the UK ones I have never read before.
