Happy Thanksgiving! I had fun taking pictures on a walk this afternoon. :3

To everyone celebrating Thanksgiving today, Happy Thanksgiving! If your outside of the US, I hope that you still had a lovely Thors-day.
Scottie has been cooking a turky and has other foods in mind for sides. Still not dinnertime though! I'm going to call my sister in a little bit to wish her a Happy Thanksgiving too. I hope she's having a good day. :3

I decided to take a walk this afternoon since the sun was out, and I brought Venus and Abbey along to take pictures with! I would have taken more pictures, except that the cold drained my batteries quickly and so they died. Luckily the batteries only died near the end of my walk, so I didn't really lose many picture taking opportunities. I thought it might be a problem though because it was so cold.

I think this is my most favorite picture of all the ones I took during my walk. :3

See, there are still green things even in the snow!
Well yes...


But these aren't real plants...
Shhhhhh....

There were some neat, very large ornaments hanging on the eaves of a doctors office. I took a picture of one and I'm reflected in it, so it was an unintentional self portrait. It's sort of neat. xD
I'm bundled up in a lot of layers. Scottie says I should wear a jacket that I'm not swimming in but I can put so many layers under this one ehehehe xD


Then I continued my walk! I went on a walk to where I was taking grad student courses. That's in the opposite direction from work so I don't head that way terribly often, but I really like the trail between the school and the library.

I was amused because at one point when I was walking I saw two moose, but they were too far away to take pictures of and by the time I was there they were gone. Which I very much prefer to the other times when I'm like "CRAP there is a moose in my path please don't trample me".

Then I got to the trail and took more pictures of the ghouls!

All the snow...

I like it up here!


I guess I will join you then.
In the middle of taking pictures near this lake (not that you can tell really) is when the batteries died.

This will be the first Thanksgiving (and soon, my birthday) that I won't feel obligated to call my mother. Which is actually a good thing, because I inevitably just ended up stressed out while talking to her.

It’s not that I don’t enjoy our little chats. It’s just that... I don’t.

This post makes me happy - your dolls look so lovely and I love that you take them out with you on photo shoots and I think the snow looks so beautiful.

Happy Thanksgiving!

I would love to see a moose in the wild, but yes, I would understand the fear of being trampled. Hope you had a good Thanksgiving. x

I see moose everywhere so it's a pretty common occurence now! xD Moose aren't the safest to be around though, so I tend to be cautious. lol I hope that you get to see one someday! :3

I had a very nice Thanksgiving, thank you! :3

Lovely photos! Moose? Cool, I've never seen any in the wild. My mom has though, they were right next to the street she was driving on and she had to call the radio so they'd tell people to be careful.

Moose are such a common occurance to me now! They were all over when I lived in Wyoming, and they're very common here in Alaska too! I see them all the time.
Where I grew up, in Michigan, I used to see deer everywhere. That's apparently been replaced by moose! I saw a lot of deer in Wyoming (mule deer instead of whitetail though) along with moose, but I just realized that besides seeing moose everywhere I don't see much else, at least not in the city.

Aww, I love Abbey and Venus together! These are lovely photos. :)
