The next few days promise to be a tad bit hectic (but, family filled) around here, so, I doubt I will get another chance to say, "Merry Christmas, and a prosperous new year. May you find light, life and joy, in a way you never have in the past." Thank you all for your visits, comments, faves, and flickr friendship over the past year. It's been a ride, and, then some.
The cover of an "Inside Out"-inspired holiday card from Pixar Animation Studios. The inside of the card reads, "Sweet emotions in this season of Joy. Happy Holidays!" One of the best holiday cards I've seen all year!
More luck with the rape fields tonight! I love the curly plants at the front, right on the edge of the field.
Another light graffiti with Lauren. Totally 100% inadvertent... We were just making random lines. But this is definitely one of my favorites. SOOC
Press L to view in lightbox!! so worth it :)
Our family Merry Christmas began last week with relatives arriving. Will be doing some traveling with them too! Thought I could keep up with everyone, but I am already way behind, and it looks like it will be the New Year before I will be back commenting regularly on your streams. It's always such a pleasure to view your beautiful and creative images - will be hard not to peek in now and then.
Especially want to wish you peace and joy with all those you love and hold near and dear - and a Blessed New Year!
There it is, disappearing into the centre!...

Chuck Negron, formerly of Three Dog Night, became a founding member of the group in 1967. While Chuck was with Three Dog Night they had a phenomenal 18 consecutive top 20 hits, 21 top 40 hits, 8 top 10 hits and 4 number one hits – not to mention 5 top 10 albums and 11 top 20 albums. Some of their hits include “One” (Is the Loneliest Number), “Lady Samantha,” “Old Fashioned Love Song,” “Eli’s Coming,” and “Pieces of April.” Negron and Three Dog Night had the whole world singing “Joy to the World.” Few bands were as popular in concert. They pioneered stadium extravaganzas, prompting Rolling Stone Magazine in its 1972 cover story to exclaim “More Gold Than The Stones!” “Bigger Crowds Than Credence!” “Fatter Purses Than Elvis!” Some of their opening acts were the likes of Rod Stewart, Aerosmith, ELO and co-headliner billing with Led Zeppelin. Three Dog Night called it quits in 1976. Chuck is now 72 years young! www.negron.com/

Band Name Origin: A band member's girlfriend suggested the name after reading a magazine article about indigenous Australians, in which it was explained that on cold nights they would customarily sleep in a hole in the ground whilst embracing a dingo, a native species of wild dog. On colder nights they would sleep with two dogs and if the night were freezing, it was a "three dog night". en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Three_Dog_Night
"Don't miss this show - it's magical!"

what else could i name a bullfrog? Now i have 3 dog night boouncing around in my head.
Joy to the World
.... Was a good friend of mine
I never understood a single word he said
But I helped him a-drink his wine
And he always had some mighty fine wine....
This is the only frog I could find at the marsh which was full of them last summer??
Jeremiah was a bullfrog
Was a good friend of mine
I never understood a single word he said
But I helped him a-drink his wine
And he always had some mighty fine wine
From "Three Dog Night"

Feel free to sing along now :)
I've had the golden bullfrog for ~30 years. He was given to me by a dear colleague/friend who is now deceased, so I could never part with him... though I had to dig him out of the deep recesses of a lower kitchen cabinet and give him a bath. At first I poured a glass of "mighty fine wine" just for the frog, but after reading the lyrics again, decided that he would want me to pour one for myself too.
The pressure to create and post an image every day for the 365-2013 group is stretching my creative limits !
2018 Work Duty: Chaperoning the kids in our program on the Polar Express Train Ride. The kids are encouraged to wear their favorite pajamas and experience a whimsical ride on the Polar Express where they will enjoy hot chocolate and yummy cookies, as they ride along with many of the beloved story’s characters such as the Train Conductor, the Dancing Waiters, and even a ghostly Hobo. Once we reached the North Pole, Santa Claus made his way on board to give each passenger a silver sleigh bell, the “first gift of Christmas”. The train ride consisted of 7 separate cars pulled by vintage locomotives. It was quite enjoyable. The kids loved it.
Shadow from my most prized and loved thing in the whole world! (Apart from my family and my health that is!)

It's been a beautiful sunny day here today with butterflies about. So, I set up the camera on a tripod, popped a reflector on a stand to keep the wind off and bring some extra light in, and sat and waited for butterflies. Not one! Still, the wallflowers do look lovely, with or without butterflies!
This was one of my favourite toys in my early childhood. Unfortunately, I liked it so much that by the time I was a bit older, I decided to disassemble it in order to liberate the little men to make puppets out of them.
It never went back together after that, bits got very broken and bits went missing :(
Finally, today, after many years of yearning I have been reunited with my Big Mouth Singers in full working order - hurrah!
To celebrate, I shall fire it up and perform a delicate little ditty...
Joy to the World!
(Celebration Instrumental by Mannheim Steamroller)

JOY TO THE WORLD!
Joy to the world! The Lord is come. Let earth receive her king. Let every heart
Prepare him room And heaven and nature sing And heaven and nature sing
And heaven, and heaven and nature sing
Joy to the world! The savior reigns Let men their songs employ While fields and flood
Rocks, hills, and plains Repeat the sounding joy Repeat the sounding joy
Repeat, repeat the sounding joy
No more let sins And sorrows grow Nor thorns infest the ground
He comes to make His blessings flow Far as the curse is found
Far as the curse is found Far as, far as the curse is found
He rules the world With Truth and Grace And makes the nations prove
The glories of His righteousness And wonders of his love And wonders of his love
And wonders, and wonders of his love
TO ALL WHO CELEBRATE CHRISTMAS: "MERRY CHRISTMAS" TO YOU TODAY!
Hope you have had great day with friends and family! So nice to be together!
I saw more Classic cars than you could imagine at the 21st annual NSRA Nostalgia Nationals, and photographed most of them. But this unassuming little beauty was one of my favourites.

Oh, so that's where the footpath should have started!
Dora and I got a little lost on our walk today, but she got to have a go at chasing at Muntjac deer, so she didn't care!
Wishes that all your dreams come true in 2007!
Happy "Joy to the World" Feathery Friday! Please be sure to add your beautiful holiday bird to the bragging thread!
