Lego Land Fun

Ol' Rich in his Champion car drives through
Lego Main Street
to announce its opening!
Of course chicken goes
everywhere with Ol' Rich!


 The Band plays music before the parade comes along....


Meanwhile at Santa's house.....

Santa: My dear, could you give me a quick hair trim before the parade and opening of Main Street?

Mrs. C: Oh yes of course I can. Just let me finish my wine first!



Well....

Santa:  Woman, #!@@#$%&##@ what have you done!

Mrs C; [sipping the last of her wine] Oh honey, don't worry, it's a great look! Besides, you wear a hat!




They start getting ready for the parade. Santa decides to take the Big Red Truck as he doesn't want anyone to know yet that Rudolph is still missing.

Batman is on the loose looking for the Rudolph who he thinks has gone over to the
Dark Side.


Perhaps a snowmobile wasn't the best idea since the snow in the area was really melting fast....

Ufff Wham Bam Pow!

[I can't repeat what he really said...]


Meanwhile back at Main Street, the parade goes on. 





Where is Rudolph? It appears he has gone on a quest or some such thing....


More on Rudolph soon......

Wow, I cannot believe that we have no snow and rain is predicted for this weekend. Looks like an non white Christmas is coming!

Sunday Distractions

 I was trying to daydream
but my mind kept wandering.

Steven Wright


I listened to an interview of Steven Wright who apparently is a standup comedian. He wrote a book called Harold that is about a 7 year old in the 1960's. Harold has a meandering mind and wonders about things while he is in school. 

The description of Harold's mind reminds me of myself in grade school. The window of the classroom held so many secrets and it was like a continuous movie of my thoughts and imaginations. Certainly nothing in the classroom interested me.

I may just have to read Harold.

I do day dream too. I sometimes just sit quietly in the meadow or on the porch and look at nothing letting the sounds that surround me take my serious thoughts away and I am left with a brain that amuses itself. I don't have to make myself do it.

It just wanders on its own.


Maybe that's why playing has become such a relaxing thing for me to do.

After all gardening in this weather is HOT work!


The rain we got yesterday was soaked into the dry ground and still, some plants needed watering.


After all was said and done, the guys hopped into their antique cars. Farmer Bob wanted to show off his new collectable car and Grandpa wanted to take his chicken for a drive....


The girls were happy to get them out of their hair for awhile.
