Fun Fruit TP

Welcome to

THEMATIC PHOTOGRAPHIC

our theme is

Electrical and Infrastructure
(or apple-play)

Batteries included.

"I  am somewhat exhausted; I wonder how a battery feels when 

it pours electricity into a non-conductor."

Arthur Conan Doyle

Electric apples have the capacity to move on their own.

"Enthusiasm is the electricity of life. How do you get it?
You act enthusiastic until you make it a habit."
Gordon Parks

My electric apple checking out,
What plug-in hybrids can't live without.

Life source for my Chevy Volt

They sparkle and shine with every step.

"Allowed to be free to roam

their imagination takes over the universe

and the rest of the world misses out

when they don't see through their eyes

every now and then."

Me

Here's to more lively adventures

with free thinkers.

Thanks for stopping by and take good care of you!

Big Bird Says

WHOA!
Stop, time out!

Hear this bullies-

Don't mess with my
Sesame Street friends.


"Some sweet talkin' bird comes along, singing a song,
don't mess around, now we've got to be strong."

"Like bones to the human body,
the axle to the wheel,
the wing to the bird,
and the air to the wing,
so is liberty the essence of life.
Whatever is done without it is imperfect."
Jose Marti


Wheels and Tires is Carmi's theme
 this week for THEMATIC PHOTOGRAPHIC

Time out for

Wheels on the edge!

"There are no walls at the edge of this universe,
absence of gravity is the limit of space existence."
Toba Beta

When reality hurts 
for whatever reason
remember
"Arrogance is a creature.
It does not have senses.
It has only a sharp tongue and the pointing finger."
Toba Beta

Then truly it's time for a 
Yummy TIME OUT dessert just for you!

Indulge, enjoy BE HAPPY and maybe share some too!

Thanks for stopping by and take good care of you.

The Nature of Critters

About my secret well of happiness, 
it pretty much begins with 
CRITTERS

There's really only one thing that brings me down.
I know it's utterly ridiculous yet,
Who is minding our world affairs?

Who is, protecting our hearty fields of grain 
and sweet flowing waters, 
and ......
(okay, I remember this is our happy place)


See why critters are so dear?

Adorning, serious eyes, holding a world of wisdom in those eyes.

SATURDAY'S CRITTERS

"An animal's eyes have the power to speak a great language."
Martin Buber

Sniff, sniff, are you a real bunny? Sniff, sniff.

Yep. Really real.

Just kidding. I know she's stuffed, all the more fun Mommy.


"You can judge a man's true character 
by the way he treats his fellow animals."
Paul McCartney

My mother always said, beware the person who doesn't
 like animals, or children, 
and especially those who don't drink coffee.

"A bird without wings and a man without art

are both condemned to wander in low places;

they can never soar up to those

unrivaled heights."

Mehmet Murat ildan

When there's a choice to play dress-up, always play!

Lose your stillness and you will fail
 in everything you do."

Lieh-tzu

Love all critters.
Two legged, four legged, three legged, no legged.

And if ever you're confronted with anyone being,
Absurdist, bullyish, childish, devilish and utterly ridiculous just

Hold your head high
 and carry on!

"If you look at the monkeys

you can learn many things about the men;

if you look at the men

you can learn many things about the madness."

Mehmet Murat ildan

Rusty's not so sure why Oliver is getting all the attention, 

Don't they remember dogs rule and cats drool?

Children need critters.
Critters feed a person's soul.

Always feel like the prize ring in a tug o'war rope
and you'll always be a winner.

Enjoy your day, in everything you do-
we're headed for some earthiness,
(on a mission to gather some nature photos
 as incredible as our dear writer friend, Mac)

thank goodness there's sunshine outside!
No matter,
Take good care of you- 

Retail - TP

I didn't need to shop for ideas for Carmi's theme of "retail" this week which by the way has more than one direct meaning. You just need to let your imagination flow.  

Retail, can travel well beyond the fork in the road.

Here are my goods for

RETAIL

THEMATIC PHOTOGRAPHIC

If I were to follow along the less traveled road 
of the latest fashion design, this would be it.

Stylish. Unique. Exciting.

The following are uniquely approved.

"If men liked shopping, they'd call it research."

Cynthia Nelms

Picky mom approved.

"In order to be irreplaceable, one must be different."
Coco Chanel

Everyone can be a little green. After all, the best is fresh.

New ideas at work.

Natural. Safe. Fun. Organic. 

Girl, I heard you're getting married.

Explore. Nurture. Inspire. 

"You live but only once, you might as well be amusing."
Coco Chanel

"The flower that blooms in adversity is the rarest and most beautiful of all."
Walt Disney Company 

Ravishing. Feathered. 

I've shared other works similar to this before,
 but this is from their third display.

This year at the Galleria in Edina, they brought local designers
from the Twin Cities.

I can't wait to see what they bring for us next year. 
I hope you enjoyed their creations.
Thanks for stopping by 
and take good care of you.

Saturday Critters Do not be so

Don't be so serious

If you can't laugh at yourself, 

call me, I'll laugh at you.

Well the weathermen were spot on
it's snowing here!


Of course our Snowgirl Misty
is very pleased!


Best thing ever, licking the snow off her face!

Fresh falling snow, a simple joy of winter,

for dogs!

Welcome to

SATURDAY'S CRITTERS

We all need someone to watch over us.
Yep, that's our kitty cat.

See all our snow was gone again.

Dash blends well in our present grass, don't you think?

When you chase a cat up a tree you can expect to get scratched if you're a dog, but if you're a human expect an elf to appear.  True story!

There must be an Oz in Alabama.

"Don't listen to them, I do have a heart, I really, really do.
You see it right?"


"What promise of a new day 
does one have to ignore 
to laugh so early in the morning?
Leot Felton


Sometimes, if you ask no questions, you'll never know the answer!

Whirlybird or critter?

Enjoy what's left of your weekend and
take good care of you.

Thoughts On Imitating

Before I head out to work,
my I share a few thoughts?


"Children have never been very good at listening to their elders,

but they have never failed to imitate them."

James Baldwin

Never get caught up in just making a living.

There's a whole lot of life to squeeze out of the tube of life,

before it's empty.

Me

Take time to share your walk.
Learn things.
Laugh.

"Unhappy the land that is in need of heroes."

Bertolt Brecht

Waiting for a birdie.

"Children are superheroes in disguise."

Parties are dress-up time for everyone.

Yep that's me, a few years ago.

"Be yourself because an original

 is worth more than just a copy."

S. Kassem

By all means dress-up your scarecrows.

Take time with your critters!

Enjoy your day 

and take good care of you.
