Sooooo….. we were walkin’ in the hood and came upon this giant agave.
So nice, so nice. I photographed it twice.
And of course, I had to get crazy with the 3rd shot.
Now, Dearest Friends and Enablers…
I am off to package up 3 eBay auctions that sold — some of hubby’s model railroad stuff.
Yay, my auctions sold! My auctions sold!!
Then… I have photos to take of 6 more railroad things and get those listed.
Whooohooooooo, Jannie can now hire her bassist and drummer!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Oh yeah, I’m the luckiest person I know!!
Who’s the luckiest person YOU know? And why?

Past the warlock, the blacksmith,
ye olde “Ale & Turkey Drumstick”
and the jousters down the lane
we chanced upon a slumbering sprite in the wood.
Later we floated
back over the corn stubble field
to some internal combustion machine
or another, to sail home into the sunset
with the wind whipping our rigging
in 6/8 time gypsy hip-shaking tambourine.
And 5 additions to this 55 words of fiction for the G-Man…
1. 3 iPhone photos from that Renaissance Fayre — back when my pix were a mere 740px wide. 🙂
2. The boots belonged to the sleeping angel girl’s brother.
3. Fun is good.
4. Love is good.
5. Ale is good.

Okay! 6 things…
I get to go back into the recording studio next week to sing, so…
if my blog-hoppping is sparse until then…
please know that I and the music of the leaves up laughing in the trees are writing lyrics for you.
🙂

I photographed the 3 pecans the same day in the park with the cuties here.
[edit…] btw, the 3 tree picture is 100% totally UNphotoshopped!! All I did was resize. And sharpened just a twinge.

Bra Flinging, Photography | Posted by Jannie on 29 November 2011 @ 5:55 AM
The neighbors still rave about
how she shook her maracas.
How she flung peas into the trees.
Then her blue bra over the roof.
She still had not quite mastered
her Kodak’s indoor light settings…
but, by golly — Thanksgiving 2011,
the day she learned which camera
button to press, and how to run like
heck into position — sweet potatoes
everywhere did a happy fandango.
~~ end of amazingly deep poem for dVerse Open Link Tuesday.
Photos 1 & 2 taken with timer set for 10 seconds.
Hope you had a great Thanksgiving if you celebrated.
And if you ever roast a turkey, I hope you have a helper this cute…
Posted with love by Jannie
And yes, ZenSational Sheila — that IS YOUR basket on our kitchen windowsill!! I keep my tea bags in it.

You are thankful for the smoke of stars
that twirled itself into the ones you love
and whirled itself into the sun that rises
daily to yodel at the blue plumbago.
————————
You are thankful for the rivers of pancake batter
pouring from the Big Dipper into your frying pan,
then thru your veins to the leaves of your hands
tapping out fortune cookie whispers on the wind.
———————–
You are thankful for these miracles of molecules
dog paddling happily from friendship shore to
shore, to alight on sunset beaches where we all
will be dancing and laughing together forever.
You are also thankful for photoshop to prettify your pix…
🙂
for your poetry angels at dVerse — Open Link Tuesday, week 19 now…
and for all your other blogging and Real Life loved ones.
Have a wonderful Thanksgiving, Friends!!
I’ll be back posting here next week.
Jannie
