Easter weekend





The first is a picture of the Easter card from mom and dad...love the chicken! The red things are from a tree, not sure what it is, but it's sure as heck interesting looking. The last one is of my groundhog friend that lives in the woods by the apartment. I finally got him on film!

Warmer Walk



Took another walk today because it was gorgeous weather. Took a couple pictures of this rock outside the apartment that was split by a tree several years ago, and I thought it looked cool. The third picture is of a sewer/water access port of some type. The shape is like the top of a submarine, at least in my warped mind.










"Captain, I think the submarine should have taken a left in Albuquerque, and why do I smell grass?"

New placemats



I felt the urge to change up my table. We all need a change and some color sometimes. Kohl's had a sale.

Taking a walk







Took a walk because I was in a good mood and it was a somewhat sunny day. Just around my neighborhood. There's something about the empty playground with the forgotten ball that seems somber. The sunset was gorgeous, although my camera doesn't capture it well. The rustic archway was just really interesting.

Here's the monster...temporarily named George until I feel more creative.

Monster - not quite Hunger, but close


This guy isn't done yet, his head is still open. He's based on the orange "Hunger" monster from the latest round of Weight Watchers commercials. He needs eyebrows, and maybe eyelids. I'm not a huge fan of the eyes. I wanted something bigger, but they didn't have any at the store. He's still kind of cute. 24 inches tall. Made out of fur I had bought on sale, longer haired stuff would look more like the monster. We shall see, he wasn't that difficult to make - took an evening for all this. maybe he needs elbows...

Jim Thorpe, PA - Broadway House











I spent the night after the concert in the Broadway House part of the Inn at Jim Thorpe. The picture of me is in front of the Asa Packer mansion which is in the last set of pics.
