Big Al?

It was crazy hair day at daycare.
Ray sees a certain resemblance to a much more famous image.
Wishful thinking?

...Won't you be my neighbor?

(heh, anyone see what I did with those titles? No, just me? Never mind...)

One of the things I love about this neighborhood is the number of little kids. Recently E and I went back down to the dinosaur park (so named for the dinosaur skeleton E that is the only item is uninterested in, and there were four two-year olds taking over the park. (E is in the red shorts here. The stunning hat is a common fashion statement in this age group.)
However, we don't even have to walk as far as the park- we've got fun kids right in our cul-de-sac.

And, E would point out, their moms stock things like popsicles. And make them share their soccer balls.
You know it's a good neighborhood when the block party includes a two-year-old dance party. (Huh, E has another borrowed ball in this pic. Magpie.)

A beautiful day in the neighborhood...

Have we mentioned our view?
Can I add to the long list of reasons I need to use a better camera than my phone?
Bonus points if you can name the peak (looking a little northwest from our house). Or if you can come remove that streetlight.
The next set was while we were affected by the fires south of us. The light wasn't this sienna-esque, but it was pretty dramatic.




Yeah, the view is pretty good.
