Seeded



While decorating at someone's house yesterday, I came across the most interesting of hand-made ornaments.

Given the political incorrectness of it (but then ... when has that ever stopped me from anything?), I couldn't help but take a quick mental step backward on seeing it.

But someone took the time and effort to create this little guy. And I thought he deserved his due.

To decorate ... or not.

#346 - #353: Whilst In Park City


A bit of catching up to do while on a Christmas vacation. Onward .....


#346: Iced Up To The Crossbar

Bicycles buried in the snow, obviously, on the side of the neighbor's house .....


#347: Snowprints

The new Christmas Eve tradition: Planting your bare ass in a snow bank and leaving impressions.

Not only photographic evidence, but no harm was done to the environment.


Brilliant.


#348: Prime Rib

Christmas dinner included the traditional prime rib.

Cooked to perfection - rare in the middle, medium on the ends .....



#349: Hasta!

Dea, heading down the run at Gorgoza in Park City.

Bon voy Ha-Gee .....



#350: Non-Removal

Taggy The Tagger. He's just grand, Sierra.

(Yes .... I know you don't get it. Click onto "Taggy" for a close-up and you'll figure it out .....)



#351: No Green, Right Side

In and around Park City during the 2002 Olympics, The Powers That Be decided to place colorfully painted moose around town.

In the main square. At the occasional gas station. At Olympic Park. At the library.

They were (and still are) interesting, at the very least. But they are worse for wear, as Sunshine Eye above shows you .....


#352: Beef

"Beef"? Really?

Why ... but of course.

They're "beefing up" the ski runs at Park City Mountain Resort, making more snow, you see. If it weren't for those damned wind creations getting in the way ... spinning ... catching eyes .....


#353: Happy Birthday

Next month, it's the birthdays of them there cream cheeses.

They'll be four years old January 21st.

And, while they're still relatively "young", I'd be willing to bet they're "bleu cheese" colored within their protective wrappings.

I'm not willing to find out

Quick Winter Break


Dear F (STOP) Habitué:

The monkey business will cease on this site!

Temporarily.

Christmas vacation is now in process. I will be "back on the job" in short order. The missing days of photos will appear. Promise.

Until then ..... Merry Christmas, everyone!
