walk v. ride
I haven’t been out making new photos lately – other stuff has taken priority, etc. But luckily I have a gigantic archive of photos that I never got around to editing.

But if you feel the need to go read them yourself, here’s Helpful Hint: there’s a spotlight on them so you don’t even have to race sundown with the short December days and all.
And, finally, here’s a Fun Fact: all of this has been assembled by the town’s mayor.

But if you think WE are surprised, check out Mary; apparently when she got the news it was so shocking that it made her head break open.

PS: Also, this is literally Jesus of Nazareth.

I almost talked myself out of posting this. It’s uncomfortable to look at and even worse to think about. (Plus the spelling errors…)
But of course I realized those are reasons TO post it, so here it is.
(I did find out a few details about this situation and they are pretty much what you’d expect them to be.)
