We are still waiting for the forecasted snow and sleet and ice and freezing rain. Everything is perfectly dry out here. I love the anticipation of waiting for snow!

My pictures tonight are ones that I snuck next door and took in the dark. Our next door neighbor is a single older woman who doesn't drive and REALLY loves the yard art. A LOT. I'll have to see if I can snap more pictures another time. She also waited until we were out of town one time and had a tree service come and cut all the branches off of the tree in our backyard that hung over her backyard. That did not please me.

I HATE this thing. It is out by the side of the road and it's one of the first things I see when I come around the curve towards our house. I think it is SO tacky. Sometimes I think of sneaking out in the night when it's particularly windy and hurling it into the road. I especially like the turd coming out of the dog's rear end. Real klassy.

I am not sure what this is. A sacrificial altar? A landing pad for aliens? It is also by the side of the road so it's easily visible. I especially like the bricks encircling the rock. They add a little touch of something special. Do you see the orb in the picture? Maybe it's a haunted area. Who knows?
