Good old Engine 733 from Ho-Ho-Kus, New Jersey..... What?.... 733 just happens to be my credit score but yet I still can't buy a new lawn mower because some pig feels we won't be able to make the $83.00 payments for 3 years. Besides I like the name Ho-Ho-Kus and this pic has the added benefit of not being flowers...

Our sweet (except for Monday when she stole 3 baby bunnies from their nest) golden retriever Cappy was feeling left out since Max has been in this blog several times and she has not... so now she has.

In order to preserve history... the famous "Little Boys / Mother & Daddy / Karen Karen" linen shelf has now been immortalized on the Internet... Preserved for generations of curious descendants to theorize on the plight of those poor "little Boys" and the mistreatment they must have suffered....

Probably the strangest tribute to St. Patrick's day can be found in Keller... in front of the Keller ISD bus barn... two full size plastic cows painted green, white, & gold.. hummm

Someone built a race track for sports cars between Decatur and Era on FM 51 called Eagles Canyon Raceway. I stopped by and the the Dallas Porsche Club was having a club race. This is a modified 1997 Boxster.

No matter how bad a day you may be having, there is never a good reason to hang out at a bar named "Out On A Limb"... Sadly not everyone agrees with me as this place always has trucks in front.

It could be the best thing about Popeye's is how good it smells inside... its kind of like walking into Starbucks and how the smell of fresh brewed espresso is at least half the appeal... well at Popeye's the cajun spices smell so good your mouth starts watering as soon as you walk in... Go for the Loaded chicken wrap.. spiced beans and rice with a fried chicken strip rolled in a flour tortilla.... and its just $1.49!!!

I love church signs, these guys in Aurora like to be cleaver.


Come near to God and he will come near to you.
