Not Off the Grid


Lest anyone think we are not dependent on power ...so many chargers.  Disclaimer: This is not at my home.

Macy's Parade




Drinking to the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade, from my trip to New York a few years back. Not to the parade. That's on my bucket list. Not to see the parade (unless from an apartment like on Miracle on 34th Street) but to watch the balloon's being inflated the night before. Happy Thanksgiving!

Why build a double garage with no driveway in a completely fenced in yard?

Stop!








You know, I think I could have figured this one out on my own.

Sesame Birthday



These cakes are for the birthday of a 25-year-old. And the characters are rings. Imagine the fun that occurred.

Carpet Obstacle Course


We have the added challenge each day of figuring out where our office furniture will be and how to move around as they keep sealing us in our offices.

Visionary?



One of my young charges constructed this town, stating it was the best ever built. Visionary or disaster in the making?

Baptismal Art

A rather unusual painting on the side of the baptism pool. It's hard to see even when the screen is opened during a baptism. I believe it was painted by a church member as I have seen similar paintings in other obscure places.

Window inside and out


The stained glass window above is seen from the outside above. It's the window in the brick (not the stone) on the right side of the bottom photo.

Art in the Garden


A friend of ours is having a holiday sale with other artists. He makes the stones.

Hopscotch








It's good to know that kids still play. However, this person made the squares awfully small for a foot.

Fireworks


I thought this looked like the fountains we used to shoot on the 4th of July that sparkle at the end of the "branches."

Birdhouse Mansion



Although it's nearly impossible to see at the top of this stone post under all the ivy is a birdhouse. Not sure if the birds can find it but it's a birdhouse mansion if they do.

Trying to be artsy.
