In the vain of other really stupid post.....A while back I had posted a picture of a neighbor making the best of a bad situation. This is the latest in her evolution.

As a reminder guys....get out there and get you honey something for valentines day. A few of her others along the way.....

    Wow. Creative in a crazy type of way.

    Here, lock this log chain around the trunk, I'll hook it to my Chevy, and hold my beer.

    Why hasn't she removed it?

    Interesting lady really. There is a wooded trail that runs through our neighborhood. She had taken all sorts of natural surroundings...and created artistic things from downed trees, stumps etc. A bit eccentric, but really talented. Just a very artsy lady.

    The best one she did with the one in front of her house was a Thanksgiving Turkey. For some reason, I didn't snap a picture of it, but wished I had. Oh and the New Years one had a sign asking folks to make a new years wish on the rocks.....the same ones she has painted red, in the valentines one. They somehow show through the paint.

    That is great.  I do wonder why it was not yet removed yet. It does not look overly complicated or large.  Then again with all the HOA rules around and or if it is a township responsibility, it could be messy.

  • That's right you guys....better be planning for the big Valentines Day.  Like my husband....don't be grabbing a card on the way home and expecting us to be all dolled up for you. You are going to need to put some effort into it this year.

    I may decorate a stump for Valentine's day. Makes about as much sense as anything else for the 14th.

    White Castle. A valentine's tradition. Yes it's even candle lit! Workers are dressed in tuxedos and even had an employee bust out his guitar and serenade everyone last year! Fun times. Thanks for the reminder of the card. ;)

    They talk when passing. Too many creative minds for me. Me thinks that lady is smokeing something....and not on a BGE.

    Thanks Robin, a great reminder. I totally out kicked my coverage, when My Beautiful Wife agreed to marry me. I always do my best, and will try again this year to make it wonderful.

    I'll take the stump lady over the beach people.....

    Just find some redneck in a jacked up Chevy and tell him " I bet that Chevy you've got won't pull out that stump". Problem solved.

    The local news was showing some gifts for "your single friend" for this VD.  One was a sweater (XXL) that had a pic of an order of fries and below it, "Fries, not Guys".

    How you know that Easter is just around the corner. 
    No....she didn't pee on it either.
    A slight breach of etiquette sailing right by St Patrick's day, but that is interesting. I'll assume being on that side of the sidewalk it's the town's problem.

    You should chop off a hunk and smoke a ham in your egg. I don't know how you'd explain the final product...

    I know you all have been wondering what next on the ol tree stump decor. Here is your summer update to the neighbors stump. Thinking she could use a little trim.
