Had my first glimpse of the Lobster Trap tree last night so I had to stop and grab a few shots to add to the GMG collection thus far. Beauty from every angle. You can just feel the “community” in that amazing piece of art! Just what I needed to get into the spirit of the holidays! Thanks to those who give so much to make this happen each year! 

About this fence…. I’m sure there is a really simple reason for this fence, but I can’t figure it out. I remember the fence going up at the Blackburn Circle rotary last year too but, while I meant to throw the question out there to GMG Nation, I never did.
So, here it goes…. Why the fence? Who is in the know? Does it have anything to do with the snow? Even if you don’t KNOW the answer, I’d welcome all guesses….as maybe it’ll make me feel better for not being able to figure it out myself.

It’s pot-luck and byob



Like many families, we have an elf. Our Elf used to come back to visit the boys on Thanksgiving night and keep his watchful little (creepy) eyes on them each day….and then report to Santa each night for the next 30 days, give or take, until Christmas. It didn’t take me long to realize that 30 days of remembering to move the darn elf was way too much….never mind actually getting creative. So, this year he came back later…and I’m already over it. I’ve managed to get semi creative 1/2 the nights and then simply lamely move him to a new spot other nights. I’d post photos, but I’m too over it to even bother taking pics anymore. That being said, however, I did get a good laugh when I came across photos of Jingle the Elf’s arrival back to Rockport last year.
Last year, he came back to town the night after I found a pair one of the boy’s underwear hanging from a hook in the middle of their bedroom ceiling. Punks.
This is how Jingle felt about that…..never mind how I felt.
