Musings & Ramblings of Stacy Mizrahi
Pam, Meghan and I are enjoying some time in Ottawa. We did a tour of the Fairmont Château Laurie. Cool side story, we were waiting in the lobby for the tour group and did not see the cast of Lord of the Rings standing just a few feet from us. They were here for a conference. We had to have the rest of the tour group tell us about it later – we felt like idiots!
We did a grand-tour through PA, starting with two days in Hershey and then we drove out to OhioPyle. We got a big cabin in the woods and explored as much as we could. We did a day of whitewater rafting, took a tour of Falling Water, visited a winery and distillery, visited Fort Necessity, went to the depths of Laurel Caverns, watched the 4th of July fireworks at Deep Creek, and man am I tired! We had a pretty active vacation and I’m glad we got a chance to explore so much. I’m happy to be back
Took Meghan out of School and had Justin accompany us to a library on the far end of Howard County to watch the solar eclipse.
Just had a round of fresh snow and the view from the window is spectacular. Also had a good time with snow to kick this year off. Meg and I got a full day at Liberty with no lines at the lift. Gotta love teacher work Mondays.
It took some time for it to come together but I got my Bender costume assembled. The body and head were made from Sakrete tubes. Most of the effort was on the head. The dome was a foam half sphere that I picked up at Michaels. Benders antenna is a plastic landscape nail topped with a ping pong ball. His eyes are foam balls. The pupils are construction tape. I cut holes in the foam balls and ping pong ball and inserted LED balloon lights. The visor was a cardboard box that I cut to shape and hot-glued in place. …
I was having a problem with my iPhone 2020 recording static on the first few seconds of recorded video. Right after I made this video, my daughter breaks her iPhone so she inherited mine. I tried getting another 2020 from eBay. After two unsuccessful purchases ( both had problems I couldn’t resolve) , I broke down and got the iPhone 14 Pro. Its a great phone but wow is it heavy! I feel like I could use it as a weapon if I had to. Such a huge difference from the light weight 2020. And I have to say, that …
I was watching the FSU Miami game in Tallahassee and milking that position of Baltimore Club President for all it was worth. A Warchant photographer captured my tailgate experience with the lovely FSU Cowgirls. Fear not, Pam was actually at the game with me. Meghan was there too, she was in utero and very close to being born. We had tickets on the 50 yard line and I got a chance to show Pam what a game in Tallahassee was like.
James “Jim” Mizrahi passed away July 11 th , 2023 at Hope Hospice in Lehigh Acres Fl.
I’ve talked so much about this that I feel its time to get it down in some sort of official capacity. Our summer vacation is officially over and I had a wonderful time with my family at the two big resorts in the Orlando Area, Disney World and Universal Studios. We had five days in Disney World, two at the Magic Kingdom, one at EPCOT, one at Hollywood and one at Animal Kingdom. We had three days at Universal divided into Universal Studios Florida, Universal’s Islands of Adventure, and Universal’s Volcano Bay. DISNEY WORLD REVIEW In a perfect world, I …
