Down in Nags Head, NC today. Beautiful, warm winter day. Took a walk and found this cool little place. Had to make it the photo of the day. Plus, bonus Gnomes! OK HW

Today's image is another very old sculpture that I did when I was 18, maybe 19. It is my version of "Blackenstein" rendered in Sculpey and painted with acrylics. Oh yeah, he's also only an inch and a half tall...

My buddy Ralf Schulze has decided to join me on the post-a-day challenge! (Ralf's Blog - Aardvark Farms) I've known Ralf for twenty three years, maybe more. We met through our underground comix and have stayed in touch on and off through the years. The photo is of a bronze sculpture that Ralf did a long time ago. It now lives in my home office, keeping company with some my tiki mugs. Ralf is still doing some cool comix art and recently has also been expanding into the world of animation and video (Ralf's Youtube Channel). Check out his stuff.

Got out for a walk tonight and finished on the beach. I hit 59 miles for the month so far. I need to average 58 miles per month to hit my goal for this year of 700 miles. A good day it was.

On the commute home, I found myself behind this fantastically painted car. Only managed one quick picture before I lost him in the traffic. Have never seen this car before, but hope I come across it again sometime so I can get a better shot of it. I love car art, especially home-made car art. This looks professionally done, but you never know. Looks like they spent all their dough on the paint job and had nothing left to fix the ragtop.

The Packers beat Da Bears, and they're going on to the SuperBowl! A total team effort and the perfect subject for my photo of the day!

Go Pack Go!

I love the cold weather. Got out and hiked seven miles. One of the things I love about cold weather is getting a good fire going. Now if we could have a little snow please...
