Happy New Year’s Eve! 🥂
Booked our spring break flights to Amsterdam, with train travel in the middle, then visiting Mazie in Barcelona on her semester abroad and returning from there. ✈️
It seems nearly every platform does a “wrapped” or year-in-review thing now. Only some of them are interesting to me. Sanebox did what these should do by explaining the value I’m getting from the service.
Family game time with Skittles.
This fox is a pretty frequent visitor around the lake.
Starting on my Christmas LEGO project: the Ferrari SF-24. 1,361 pieces in 455 steps.

Tyler and I just opened a Mega Evolutions ETB and he hit with the gold Mega Lucario ex! Best pull he’s ever gotten. 🤩
Airport POAP Rally Website
I was super excited to see POAP create the Airport POAP Rally 2026 collection. Location-based POAPs at 100 airports throughout the world? I think this will be a super fun event to track throughout 2026.
The Airport Rally is much bigger in scope than what I did with the 612 POAP Challenge. That event had 31 locations in Minneapolis (plus 2 hidden ones) that people needed to collect between Memorial Day and Labor Day. I enjoyed the 612 POAP Challenge so much I setup a site for POAP Challenge with the intent to create a challenge or two a year that people could play. I hadn’t considered the “rally” name so I also grabbed poaprally.com in addition to poapchallenge.com.
The Airport Rally is so grand and awesome I decided to setup a site to track it as well! Check out…
This site uses my POAP2RSS service, along with an assist from rssrssrssrss, to pull in claims for all 100 Airports and share them on the blog thanks to micro.blog ability to import RSS feeds and publish as blog posts! Want to know what is happening on the Airport Rally? It will all be shared in near real-time here!
These events will also be syndicated via distributed social media. You can follow @poapchallenge on Mastodon and @poapchallenge.com on Bluesky.
I’m planning on posting updates as Airports are claimed as well. I’m curious about the first airport to be claimed, the first 10, when will 50 of them be claimed, and how long will it take for all 100 to be claimed? Those updates will be shared on the website and also on r/POAP!
