north carolina holidaze wrap-up

I thought I would do a little
post-holiday wrap-up....
Homemade Apple Butter 
left by a kind neighbor
for Mammy.

Yes, we are in the South....
"White" "Lawn Jockey"
at neighbor's "farm"
where my dad just got permission 
to fish.

They have a beautiful small lake....
Wonder if there are any fish in it????







Why yes there are!
MONDOBLOGO can FISH!

My ride when I am down there.
(Thanks Pops!)

Another mode of transportation,
Aunt Lil's horses.

Yet another more agro mode,
John's new rig.
This thing was badass and a blast
to ride in.

Famous cousin alert:
entertains us during
"Dirty Santa"
at Rock House.

Signs to the Cousin's houses.

Cousins Marion and Susan's
new home.
They built this themselves in

Spotted at the local antique mall.

Mom's moss garden in a Donald Judd bucket.

Bec gave this to my Dad for

Sweet Josie.
Still looking good even though she is so sick.
That's "Ball",
 her main toys for years and years.

Sunset oysters and a Sweetwater IPA
on the porch.
As Mammy would say,
"Dee-lissch-ouss!"

Sunset Jessie!

So many choices!
Dali decides on which one of Dad's
treats she will sample first.

Bec builds a Homie Snowman
on the back deck.
