DID ALGY AND PETER HEED THE CALL?! WHAT HAPPENED! OH NO! (Telegraph, London, 1923 Jan 2, front page personals)

I love old newspapers so much. This was on the front of the Telegraph of London, January 2, 1923. Front page.

Just handed draft adventure to Luke Gygax and Skeeter Green for the GaryCon adventure 2025 - all being well - an official Chaosium Call of Cthulhu adventure. More nervous than I have been on any map I have ever done (although giving maps to Lynne Hardy and Mike Mason ranks RIGHT UP THERE)

Trifle and scotch eggs for my tg dinner contribution.

Eyes wired up. Started to repair where wiring was threaded/wove. Onto painting.

Wiring for the brazier in place

The remains of the famous Roman legionary shield uncovered at Dura-Europos (left), a city in Mesopotamia, alongside a reconstruction (right). Known as the “Dura shield,” it is celebrated as one of the most significant roman army discoveries, being the only surviving example of its kind.

First snow at the new house. I'm no fool: I know this gets a lot deeper over here in Wisconsin.

Testing wiring for flickering fire

Holes drilled and primer applied. I had to do the primer now because I didn't want to do it once the jeweled eyes were in. I'm ready to get the leds positioned and wires threaded. They will go through the front and down through the bottom and under the base where there will be an on off switch.

Trying to size two jeweled eyes led to a veritable avalanche of rhinestones. Help

I think I bought too many rhinestones. I need TWO for eyes on the ernie Gygax piece in doing for him, and some how ended up with a zillion of different sizes.

Playing with leds

Weighing up eye sizes on the ernie gygax statue piece and prepping the leds.
