Made me feel quite “Christmasy”. Certainly, very bright and cheerful.

Not something you see everyday – again
In fact, I can’t remember every seeing such a thing. I came across it in the men’s room at Croton Harmon Metro-North Station. Do they really have such a problem with toilet rolls being stolen that they have to lock them up? And, as you can see from the photograph, their scheme has fallen apart: one of the toilet rolls (the one on top) seems to have escaped. I suppose it will only be a matter of time before the criminal hordes will descend on it and whisk it away.

Memento Mori Revisited
Last month I did a post I called “Memento Mori“. If you’re not familiar with the term I’d suggest that you take a look at that post.
Well, here’s another one. When I came home the other day, I noticed this dead raccoon next to my driveway. It was close to the road so I suppose it could have been hit by a car hard enough to knock into my driveway. Or it could have been hit by a car and crawled as far as my driveway. Or it could have died from natural causes. I’ll never know.
I was tired from a day working and I didn’t feel like dealing with it at that moment. So, thinking I’d deal with it the following day I left it where it was.
When I came back to dispose of it, I found that it had gone. I’m guessing that a coyote, fox or maybe a vulture had taken it.

A vehicle
Actually, I wasn’t much interested in the vehicle itself. But blue is my favorite color, and I was attracted to the pastel blue of the vehicle and the contrast with the bright yellow of the lettering

Signs of Hallowe’en
Even down by the Hudson River there are signs that Hallowe’en is fast approaching. Still this rotating windmill makes a pleasant change from the giant skeletons that you seem to see everywhere around here at the moment.
