Didn’t Get What You Wanted For Christmas?

Fear not. The local movie store has you covered…

The small print says: See store for details. (Two times. They really want you to go in so you can fall in love with all those adorable little smiles and pleading eyes.)

I have to admit I am immensely tempted to run in and ask for two. Do you think I can choose their ages? 3-year-olds are a total blast with their creativity and goofiness. Boy or girl, it doesn’t matter. I’m quite curious where they got this stock pile of kids and what do they do with them when the store closes. And of course, I am pretty darn curious about how the store employee will react when I ask for my free kids. I’m fairly certain I will not receive two kids as requested, but instead, an unimpressed stare with maybe a few blinks thrown in for good measure.

Oh, well. The sign has kept me cracked up for hours. I guess that will have to do.

Just in case you are thinking the dirty player Jean might be pulling one over on you, here is a shot with more of the accompanying windows so you can see I didn’t just grab the sign out of context (Not that I would ever do such a thing):

Hey, I’m Back!

I have returned! 5000kms later and surprisingly few bug bites seeing as I went north of 60 on this latest family adventure. Here are a few highlights, photo style. Woot, woot!

The wildlife (bison shown here–sorry, they kind of blend in. We also saw plenty of bears, moose, deer, mountain goats and a few porpoises too):

However, didn’t see any of these:

The carnage that ensued as we battled our mighty Yaris across the last frontier:

Tenting near a glacier:

Strange and Unusual (Lots of that! But here is a small sample. How about thousands of signs in a signpost forest?):

Or…Really, a cinnamon bun as big as a child’s head!:

And lastly a nice shot of the mountains in the middle of pretty much freaking nowhere:

Hope everyone is having a wonderful summer!
