in front of my laptop at the @timeshifted's was this bunny. they are after me and this proves it.

this one too, needed it's photo taken. mark and carol have so much amazing art around their house. everywhere you look there is something that catches the eye.

circa 1961 and years of hard labor, this is my father's pride and joy.

these are on display in the room i shared with my brother for 18 years along with our patches for being ranked number one at the end of the year for our ages in the state of illinois.

47 years ago they built shit to go fast.

when i was a kid the whole of this grassy expanse was littered with the rusted frames of these old Fords. this one appears to the last one to be hauled away.

we made a pit stop at this casey's in ladd, il on our way to our destination. inside at the counter was, of course, a cousin that i haven't seen in over 10 years. recently divorced and a proud holder of a bechelor's degree.

the odds of us meeting like this are vegas house odds.

this bear, in some other shots also, drew me to it.

it was positioned in the window to be child height for those walking by the window on the way in.

the nutcrackers take orders from this creepy toddler doll that appears to be in charge of all other elements in the window.

loving you one bear at a time.

buy this bear or else.

i really dug the way that the weathered store window was subtly caught in this shot for an under the glass hue.

the man woke up early, snuck the toaster into the basement with a stash of frozen waffles, pancakes, bagels and cream cheese.

there is nothing quite like the desires of a small child to become a basement sous chef.

when asked about cream cheese on the fork, said chef replied, "dad, it was necessary to taste it with waffles."

bravo, young man.

check the scooter with the large wheels.

now you know what happens to worn out shopping carts when they disappear.

so wear your cinch shirt.

this parade can't begin soon enough.

i am convinced this is what earth will look like 20 years after we are all gone.

we've lived here for four years and i've never had anything fall in this window well before.

today it has been a bunny and now two toads.

next shot i hope to post is stacks of $100's that fell from the sky into the window well. fingers crossed.
