Most advertising campaigns make me roll my eyes


...but this campaign caught my eye.
Clever.
Right on.

Stencil Chair

This chair is broken.

Every time I go to throw it out, I stop and put it back down. A few weeks later I see it and think, "Wasn't I going to throw that out?" and I start towards the trash again, only to stop and put it back down. It has inched it's way across the yard, closer and closer to the trash cans, but something always stopped me.

Now I know why I can't throw it out - what a great stencil. On what . . . I'm not so sure. But at least it's safe for now.

Baby Pine Cones


Tucked inside the branches of Christmas trees
growing in Bruce's Garden.
Cool.

For Jeanie:


Where are My Shoes?

I wondered where my tennis shoes were.
For two days I wondered.

Painting

In my paintings lately, I have been using a lot of images with clothing. I love painting fabric. I love the shadows on his pant leg. This, I think, may be my next painting.

Reminds me of a hitching post

Charlie Brown Tree

I can't believe I missed another day of posting yesterday. Especially when I had photos waiting. Harumph!



We went to pick out our tree. So many to choose from, all growing straight and tall, smelling so fresh and full of sap. We have a high ceiling in our living room and can fit a big one. We have 50 years of collecting ornaments, so we need a big one.

And still, this one . . . this Charlie Brown tree . . . this was the one I wanted to take home.

Bird

This bird somehow got in the mall and was making the best of it hanging out near a pretzel vendor.
