Sun-day-ditty.

So it started off like this. My friend Ryan, my 3 dogs and I hopped into the truck and headed East. We made a pit stop so the pups could have a potty break. I pulled off and headed down this dirt road and look what we drove up on. UGH! A dead horse! I really hope it didn't die of starvation or abuse. We actually saw SO many dead animals. The horse, a javelina head in the middle of the road, a skunk, a dead bullfrog at the motel and on the way home I saw a dead dog in the middle of the road. I guess the song of the day would be "Sunday Bloody Sunday". I'm posting these in 3 diff blocks.

I love these old Honda's. Sid used to have one in high school that he'd call the brown potato.

We stopped at a little yard sale when we pulled into Superior. Oh my goodness-the lady that lived there with a man, don't know the relation, she was like a scene out of a scary movie. I don't think she had brushed her teeth in 40 years. I asked Ryan if he'd make out with her for $10,000-he said "maybe" The man also had either A) a tumor B) a baby or C) a basketball stuffed under his shirt. They were both super nice. She even gave me a jug of water for my dogs. You'll see him when you scroll down.

He let us explore this little trailer he had for sale. $1,800. It needed to be gutted and restored.

He said this was an old medical dummy.

This old motel when you enter Superior was pretty cool. There was a lot of junk still left inside.

ewwwww.. dead frog!

I love the red carpet.

We also stopped for a junk food lunch. Ryan bought these delicious *ahem* GNARLY super greasy chicken fingers. They were so greasy they sparkled in the sun.

the dogs are in my truck wishing they cold get some of my hot dog.

The pretty purple flowers matched the color of this house.

Randoms

I went to an estate sale in Tempe Saturday and the front yard was covered wtih these flowers. This lady came out and asked why I was taking pictures of such ugly flowers.. totally blew my mind.. HOW are THESE UGLY?! Crazy people. I also went thrifting galore and scored some pretty good stuff. YIPPEE.

I also saw this rad small RV outside of a house near the estate sale. It wasn't much taller than I am and i'm 5'6. I looked it up and it's a Vixen. More info here I have this crazy idea in my head -when we have to move out of our awesome rental house I will buy an RV and live in that with my dogs. That way I am paying rent but it's really just a loan that i'm paying off instead of making somebody else rich. Then I can move my house every other week instead of being stuck in one place. OOH sounds so good.

1sts...

1st photo taken with my new fancy camera. I bought it for myself as an early (month and 3 days early) b-day present. If you click on the picture you can see a larger version.The Vans on the floor almost didn't make it. I had just got them from a friend, the boys picked me up from the airport and had their dogs with. We made a sidestop at The Roosevelt for the Sunday night special and when we got back into the car, the dogs had eaten the box and about 1/2" off the back of the one shoe, ate the handle on my vintage suitcase, ate my makeup bag, contact lens case and my makeup brushes. GRRRRRR.. They paid me for the damage tho, so that was nice. The bookshelf on the far left has some kind of bug problem. These lil bugs (maybe termites) are eating lil holes and then leaving a small pile of sawdust below. I found some of the bugs dead on the shelves-YUCK! I took everything off of it and sprayed it with bug spray. I also moved the shelf over to act as a door for my bedroom since we don't have bedroom doors. It's a pain in the ass taking records in and out of something. I have them in alphabetical order, but for some reason when I put them all back in the shelf I get them all messed up again-DUH. OH and if you are wondering why I have so many air fresheners laying around my house, it's because my dog's fart SO much and so bad that I'd prob die w/o any. I swear my dog's can fart as loud as a certain girl I know in LA!!!! Now that's LOUD.

So far I'm REALLY happy with the camera. Takes amazing pics. Now I just have to figure out all the fancy settings. Sunday is day trip time for me now to take pics. Amanda told me about an old movie theatre in Superior, let's hope it's still there. Check the pic she sent me here
