visions of C-day

A few photos from the holidays in the home state:

[the egg-and-globe collection]
[the dog that has wanted to eat me since his birth]
[the hand-carved wooden carousel at Lark Toys]
[the River at my hometown, very much frozen-over]
[Hallmarkarama]
[that same dog, licking the handle of my car door in an attempt to get into the car--I locked the door]
[not quite a Charlie Brown tree, but it is quite small]
