The worlds smallest outhouse. This is part of the new rural Barbie play set and It's very cute. You even have to dig a little hole under it!!

Winter has arrived early in Mudville this year. Just like last friggin year and the year before that. Can't get travel insurance because of the myocardial infarction I had a few months ago. The top most boughs of the old maple tree are starting to look mighty inviting. Salud!!

So, there I am minding my own business, sitting in my office, doing the NYT crossword when this squirrel jumps up on the window and starts licking the screen. This went on for quite some time....maybe five minutes.....before I went and grabbed the camera to get a shot. The little bugger was not shy in the least and kept right on going. Why would a squirrel lick a window screen with such industry and for so long.....anybody?

It's winter again and time for the slot cars to come out. This year my brother and I set it up in my basement....more room! We have since added one more set to the mix and I will post a pic as soon as can make myself go down to the cellar with a camera!!

I was too busy to post yesterday as I went to church to do some prep work for the afterlife. This took a lot longer than I expected. Apparently I have been slated to go to hell and I'm trying to weasel out on a technicality. The real problem is that you have to represent yourself because I'm sure you can guess where all the lawyers are....that's right.....already in hell!! With apologies to Boss Bob of Walpole Inc.

I call this nifty little art photo " grommet on canvas ", eat your heart out Greenie!!

If you contribute enough money to the war heritage museum they paint one of the panes of glass in the hanger door in your honor!! Kathy's family made a contribution in their late fathers name.....and here it is.

There are over a million seeds in the head of a Bull Rush. As a member of the male species, who is rather fond of spilling seed, this makes me jealous! It was very cold on this wintry day!

I always supply Spike the very best in toys. Here he is with one of his high end towels that I stole from a five star hotel. Try and prise it away from him!!!

This is a Harvard trainer sans engine....it's being rebuilt. This was the secondary training aircraft of choice for the military in WW2. It is said that if you can fly one of these....you can fly almost anything.
