When walking in or out of buildings in the arctic, please look up and watch out for deadly falling icicles! Happy Friday!
When temperatures drop into the subzero range, a little ice is expected, but at Emsworth Lock and Dam on the Ohio River in Pittsburgh, ice and cold temperatures made commercial navigation a little cooler than usual. (U.S. Army Corps of Engineers photo by Don Zeiler)

February 19th 2017. This is my lake, my favorite place to be, to fish, to think. I've come here since as long as I can remember. Here, I've been fishing with grandpa as a little boy, with dad, mom, with my sisters and my cousin and with my friends, and then with my beloved wife (who now holds the record for pike in the family). So this, for me is as much home as it gets. I look forward to taking my son here too, to teach him to fish just like my grandfather and my father did when I was a little boy. 👨👨👧👦🎣🚤
Today is Easter Saturday. This morning was bright and sunny, and just after midday we got heavy sudden snow showers! It has been a strange Springtime with all the unseasonally cold weather. At an rate, I wish you and your loved ones a Happy Easter ..and may the "easter bunny" bring you lots of wonderful treats! For those of you who remember the other reason for this day...may the Lords Peace be unto you!
Both of these male fashion figures are hybrids.
The male figure on the left was assembled using a head from the Blue Box action figure company. The head as been placed on an athletic articulated body from another vendor.
The male figure on the right (leather jacket) was assembled using a resin head sculpt from one vendor placed on an athletic articulated body from another vendor.

When it comes to redressing my models, I have the most fun and creative enjoyment in blending clothing from different times and fashion lines, or in using vintage clothing on unusual doll makeovers. I will also dig through doll clothes bins at antique shops and flea markets for odd pieces that I can use. And, there are also times when a doll will come right out of the box and all I will do is add a coat or change out the shoes and accessories. As for hair, I don’t like fussing with it! I may be one of the few doll owners who will leave the heavily gelled factory-hair on a doll, if I like the hair do. Occasionally, I will clip or trim existing factory hair or leave it alone if I like the hair color blend otherwise, the factory hair comes off and I create a hard-hair sculpture using various acrylic compounds and then custom paint the hair sculpt to suit the project. Lastly, as for face paint, I will “tweak” the eye color, eye brows and cheek blush as needed otherwise, I will leave the factory face paint. So there you have it, my redressing “manifesto”.
So we're having a bit of an issue with our heat atm😅
And with the temperatures being so cold where I am it's nice to have this little space heater & these nice cozy #Puma socks!
Hope you guys enjoy and what kind of socks would you like to see more of?
There were plenty of future mushers watching the ceremonial start of the 2012 Iditarod in downtown Anchorage.

A collection of salvage greens found last evening in my kitchen garden (l-r, t-b). 1) group in the kitchen (big leaves are Richter's sorrel), 2) cilantro and one lonely lettuce (Bronze Arrow=my favorite), 3) arugula/rocket, 4) wild bitter cress (as the experts say, hard to know which variety). . . a TINY plant.
The best wild greens guide, in my opinion, is: L. A. Peterson, "Edible Wild Plants".

Every once in a while a Crow will show up in my backyard looking for something to eat. I don't know why they keep coming back because they almost always leave disappointed with what they find.
Yesterday, this one scrounged around, nibbled on a pumpkin seed, found a peanut, wandered over to the squirrels Goodie Bowl and even turned up his nose at that. I thought the corn would have been something he might have liked, but he wasn't in the mood for corn.
