Taco Cat

I don't know about you but dressing a cat up in a Halloween costume is the very last thing I would ever do.  Cats are usually uncooperative and decidedly have their own minds as to what they will tolerate from us humans.

This cat is about as happy as a sour pickle and who could blame him.  Would you want to be a taco?

I had to add one last thing from halloween - cute bottoms up.

Photo shop or not but only the person knows who made them sit in paint -  I cannot see anyone this age holding still for a paint job and you wouldn't want them without a diaper too long either.

Art Work of a Sort

Bridge art? I can see a sheep in a pen, a cow, a tractor and I think a bucket of potatoes but I haven't the foggiest what the top piece of machinery is supposed to be.

The best art work was during the Olympics in Salt Lake City.

Arches National Park painted on a van with the capitol of Utah in the hole.

The torch was carried through out little town.

Skier covered the entire side of a building downtown Salt Lake City.

Ice skater on the side of a building across from the LDS temple - the temple is the one with the Angel Moroni in Gold on one of the spires.

Chihuly and his magic glass works- the sun and the moon.

Giant glass tulips.

Halloween Folk Dance Party

Clever, clever - wearing a clothes line for a costume. Nothing better to dance by than live music and singing.  This is a typical Balkan dance from that part of Europe.

Jesus Said

As I have loved you, one love another
This new commandment, love one another
By this shall men know
Ye are my disciples,
If ye have love
One to another.

Song written by Luacine Clark Fox, 2002

From the Bible: John 13:34-35

Victorian Photos

This photo is one of my favorites - you can just imagine how people would feel in this day and age with two toddlers holding rifles. I am sure that the Heath twins were given unloaded rifles and little Max, he carried the flag - sorta.

I would love to know what colors they were wearing but color photos had not been invented as yet but they did use an artist to colorized photos.

This was Merlin, Edwin and Dee Heath in sepia - no one was ever allowed to smile. I actually detect a frown on Dee.  What was he thinking? "How the duce did I ever get roped into this?"

Helen Edwards - how stately she looks.  At this young age, she was a school teacher. I knew her when she was 75 years old - she was my great aunt who lived next door to me and I thought she was snoopy.  She was a genealogist and how I now admire her for all the work she did on our family lines. I was right, genealogists are snoopy!

Halloween Party

Annual Halloween Party - pot luck and International Folk Dancing.  There is nothing like old folk dancers. Ages range from 10 years, 21 years to 40 years on up to 80 years old. We always dance to live music.

Halloween Day - visit to the Hospital and to my Chiropractor.

 She turned blurry but the costume is worth it.

He actually looks a lot like Shawn the snowboarder who was in the Olympics but this one is my chiropractor.  He was worried that I might put him on Facebook but no one will know him anyway.
