hey, where'd the new tag go? I thought I did this yesterday?


Oh well, the NEW TAG is;

wait, where'd the picture go? Oh crap, I must have deleted it from the camera before downloading it? Man, I'm having a dumb-ass day. I'll get one as soon as possible, but in the meantime........

Your bike with, something with a Christmas theme! My picture was in front of the Christmas shop in Grapevine, but anything will do! Christmas tree farm, some idiot that has left his decorations up all year, a house that still has a christmas wreath on the door, etc.

I'll try to get over and take the pic again, but Monday and Tuesday are my busiest days, and I won't get off until around 9:00 tonight, so pretend I did this right and get out there and find


Something Christmas Themed!

OK, here's the shot! I got up early this morning and had breakfast, so to speak, at Starbucks and reshot the Christmas store.


The TAG is, anything Christmas themed. A Christmas store, a Christmas tree farm, a Christmas wreath left on a door, the nutty neighbor down the street that leaves his decorations up all year, a Christmas themed amusement park/ride, a car that has a Christmas is the reason for the season bumper sticker, even you in that tacky Christmas sweater your Mother in Law got you, that you have to dig out and wear when she comes to visit for the holidays.

So, anything Christmas!

I love the sign. Personally I have seen a lot of Clowns @ Christmas.

Not claiming the tag!

Each year I try to keep an eye out for the earliest example of christmas commercialism.

In Australia, without Thanksgiving or Halloween to get in the way, the very first xmas advertising generally appears about the start of September (yes, the first stirrings of Spring!).

But this year, I took this photo on Sunday July 15 at about 5pm:

Mince pies in christmas packaging, 5 months and 10 days before christmas!

Better check the expiration date on them. They may be leftovers from last year!

Good point! but my question for CDCSlim is "couldn't you get the bike into the store for the tag?"

Ok, cool. I thought it was maybe something more specific.
I have an idea for a tag, but I'll be on a wee tour tomorrow. I'll probably pass by something that would fit, but I'll not be able to post it up until the afternoon.
Let's see.
