Got my humor blog going with more of Grumpy Weasel and then comic strip stuff. A sampling, by which I mean the whole population:


And now a sampling, by which I mean a proper subset of the proper subset of pictures I took at Crossroads Village back on Christmas week:

SAM_3960.jpg

Animated illumination of a penguin falling off the igloo. Still don't have my camera on the right settings for this!


SAM_3961.jpg

Finally got my camera on the right settings and got a picture of the people on the other side of the cart in Santa's way. I still like the picture since the negative space of the person adds something to it.


SAM_3964.jpg

Two turtle doves, part of the Twelve Days of Christmas loop. One very tiny good bit from 2020 is that since we could drive through the illuminations we got clear enough pictures of these figures that I don't have to try taking blurry, moving shots of them all. Just enough to show I was on the ride.


SAM_3965.jpg

Toy Soldier not quite ready to be seen by the train! I know, I'm surprised too.


SAM_3966.jpg

Much farther along we have this rainbow illumination and I accidentally caught [personal profile] bunnyhugger's picture of it too.


SAM_3969.jpg

Now I've got my settings right and have this double image of Santa fishing. Also, I don't know, Santa fishing.

Currently Reading: A History of The World's Airlines, R E G Davies. I agree it seems like I've been reading this forever but that's because what with various things I've had like five minutes a day to read this past month. I actually finished a hundred pages for the first time in, like, ever today.
