And that Gibson Marauder! Had to search to remember what it was called, not one of their most popular lines 😉

Fun Fact -
One Maneki-neko folklore concerns an oiran (courtesan) named Usugumo who always carried a cat with her. People rumoured she was bewitched by a demonic cat, so cut off the cat's head and killed it. The cat's severed head bit a giant snake lurking in the toilet, saving Usugumo's life. 😜

Putting the fun back into dysfunction made me laugh 🤣
Family looks a bit NJ WASP trailer park upwardly "mobile" stereotyped, but the clothes are hilarious, if a bit anachronistic.
Oh, wait, that fits the stereotype 😜

In the early '70's a High School friend of mine owned the Red GTO this was based on, 8track stereo included. Many memories of cruising in that beast, could pass anything on the road except a gas station 😜

Fun Fact -
When confronted with more than 2 porta potties always use the ones in the middle, if there are a dozen the middle ones will be an order of magnitude cleaner than the end ones unless the row has access from one end in which case go for the far end. 😉 Based on years of festival experience 😜

Some fall foliage, more later..... 10-13-25

Yellow, green, red fall leaves with green Pine at the end of the row, blown out cloudy blue sky and transmission line right of way on the Right

Green grass in front of brown dried corn field, Autumn trees to either side and cloudy blue sky above.

Looking back to the West mixed foliage on the Right mostly blown out sky above transmission right of way on the Left.
