The Santa saga continues. Another Santa has fallen! He’s more of a Christmas gnome, but is not looking good for him.

Santa must have gone back to the North Pole to get ready for Xmas. Or he finally gave up completely. Either way he’s been replaced by a Xmas Sloth. And my excellent photography makes him look like he’s getting beamed up to the Enterprise!

Santa has never felt more relatable. I feel you, my man. I feel you.

Finally some fall colors on my morning walk today!
A tree in my neighborhood is finally changing colors. Still mostly green but there are swaths of gold and orange too. Yay fall!

Things that look like other things on my morning walks. I swear that swing looks just like Yoda and now I found a tree that has what appears to be a Scotty dog growing out of its base.

Visited my brother yesterday at the gorgeous house he built mostly with his own two hands. Did I take pictures of the wrap around porch or the awesome wood beams with very cool lighting or my brother and sister-in-law or the amazing lunch she made? Nope. Here are the only two pics I took.

I walk Kodi past this park every morning. And ever morning I can’t help but think that this swing looks like Yoda is hanging out in the park.
Swing set at the neighborhood park. The Accessible swing looks a bit like Yoda from a distance.

My son was working out of town and happened to stop at a Circle K and was thoughtful enough to grab me a Purple Thunder, franchise exclusive. He is enabling my Mountain Dew project. Verdict is: It’s ok. But it’s no Code Red. (I thought Axl would make a very cute background)

Good morning from Kodi and Axl. Not sure what is so interesting in the neighbor’s yard. But it’s got their attention!
My two pups standing on the stairs of the deck in early morning sun looking very interested in something. I have no clue what.
