Soak It Up

Cliff loves to sunbathe. Unfortunately, the last brand of lotion he used turned his skin kind of orange.

Aging Gracefully (t)

Wapiti Cervus keeps a calendar. Each Spring he collects his dropped antlers which allows him to keep track of his approximate age.

Why umbrellas exist. So you can get out in some weather instead of just plain old sunshine.

Not everything is always open. However, usually, a good chain and truck will take care of the roadblock. Not that I'm condoning trespassing, just saying!

I sure hope things go alright. We had Rudolph over for dinner last night and I think he had a little too much eggnog.

When things are left unattended, they tend to break down. Then again, there are things that are tended too much and break down; like government.

Rock piles on Rancheria Road in Kern County, California almost always have an Oak tree growing close by. Lizards need shade once in a while.

An hour after ingesting wild mushrooms, Theodore began to doubt his choice. Perhaps the ones growing in the manure were not proper salad ingredients.
