Gourds Everywhere

Gourds gourds everywhere. 

Colorful, plentiful, decorative, and some edible.

Pumpkin pie is an example! ;-)

Fox Tails Rainbow

Wow, check out these colorful real fox tails. 

Ok, they're colored but still from fox. 

I asked the lady where the rest of the foxes where.

She pointed to the face masks in the tray (again real skinned faces from the foxes). 

Then she pointed me to the inside of the store, and said the rest of the foxes are in there.  ;-)

Awesome Designer Jeans

Love these jeans by Philipp Plein.

I eagle, lion, and pseudo military patches. 

The paint: red, white, blue, and yellow. 

Standout Pants, probably great with a leather bomber jacket.  ;-)

Beautiful Building Architecture

Such beautiful pillars on this building in Miami.

Colorful, vibrant, energetic!

Wow, I think I'd like to see a whole building like just like this. ;-)

Tie Dye Crocs

Thought these Tie Dye Crocs (center) were standout!

The swirl pattern and rainbow colors is pretty awesome. 

Footwear design that lights up your life!  ;-)

Flowers On Perfume

Wow!  What a beautiful flower cap on this perfume bottle.

I'd buy this just for the bottle; who cares what the perfume smells like. 

Seriously, this is some genius creative design!

Beautifully done!  ;-)

Amusement Park Painting

Wow, couldn't believe that someone actually threw away this awesome painting of an amusement park. 

It was literally just sitting at the top of the garbage! 

The merry-go-round, the ferris wheel, the flume, the hot air ballon, the children and even the man selling the cotton candy. 

This is way to nice, colorful, and happy to be in the trash. 

One man's trash is another man's treasure. 

I hope this was rescued and put back up on a wall somewhere that it can be enjoyed by everyone.  ;-)

Long Rolling Train

This long train was just mesmerizing.

I didn't get the beginning of it. 

And I didn't get the end of it. 

I think it may just have been infinitely long!  ;-)

Colorful City Living Wall Mural

Great colorful city living wall mural. 

This is a snippet from a larger mural at a local kosher eatery.  

Houses, people, cars, water, flowers, and trees. 

Happy pappy and nicely done!  ;-)

Pop-Up Toy Fun

Musical pop-up toy for the newest member of the family. 

Some toys are classic; I think every kid over the last 50 years has had one like this. 

Love how colorful and happy they make these kid's toys with the up again, down again animals in a pop box.

Monkey, lion, pig, and elephant. 

Hey, I'm remembering that I'm just a kid at heart too! :-)

WTF Is It?

Art but what the heck:

Do these thingamajigs represent people standing tall and with arms raised high?

Are you supposed to hang things off of it like jewelry?

Can you place on it reminder notes or small pictures using push pins?

Then again maybe it's a toy for a child or even a pet?

In the end, all I can say is WFT is it?

Perhaps that's what the meaning of art is!  ;-)

All American Hummer

Hummer is a large mother car. 

Based on military Humvee, so rules the road. 

They should've never gotten rid of these. 

Big and rugged like you'd expect in America. 

This one has the red, white, and blue colors to prove it!  ;-)

Beautiful Japanese Balloon

Pretty amazing Japanese balloon.

Asian landscape of mountains, trees, and with cranes flying overhead. 

Red, yellow, and black tones make for a striking look. 

When this floats overhead, there is no missing its origins. ;-)

Tower of Jelly Beans

Something about colorful Jelly Beans just makes us happy.

Candy sweet, bursting mix of flavors, and oh so chewy.

Need a handful, probably more!  ;-)

These Looks Good

Red one.

Blue one.

Yellow one.

Orange one.

Looks so refreshing. 

Especially on the rocks or even better like an icy. 

Want to try a little (or a lot) of each!  ;-)

Beautiful Japanese Print

Thought this was a really beautiful Japanese print of this woman in a flowered blue kimono. 

Her pink eyeshadow and lipstick as well as the red dangles in her hair really standout. 

She looks mysterious and at the same time familiar. 

Asia brought to the U.S. and it's intriguing to say the least. ;-)

Nice Peacock Vase

Nice vase. 

Reminds me of a peacocks feathers. 

Not sure who would pay $60,000 for this though.

Does it lay eggs?  ;-)

Fun and Good Exercise

Man, does that look fun!

Also, I understand you can get some pretty good exercise paddleboarding.

My only concern would be sharks.

Don't bright colors and strong motion attract them?  

You've got to be brave, but not stupid. ;-)

Door To Fantasyland

Wow, check out this door. 

It looks like out of some kid's book where the character disappears into some complete fantasyland. 

Maybe this could be the entrance for the movie, Willie Wonka and The Chocolate Factory (although it doesn't look very chocolatey). 

And if you're high as a kite, this will fit right into your psychedelic visions for yourself. 

Wherever this door takes you, it's gotta be good (if not a little nauseous too).

The Centerpiece

Nice store display. 

The centerpiece carries the weight here. 

Beautiful colors and design. 

Draws the shoppers into the store to buy, buy, buy. 

She rises above the others and stands out among the crowd.

Even if she's just a mannequin, she's doing a great job!  ;-)
