CHRISTMAS EVE AT THE SHED

Ah Christmas eve in the gardening shed. Uncle Mac, dressed as the sprightly old Elf...



UMNO. "SPRIGHTLY OLD ELF!"






MUCH BETTER. A FEW MORE PULLS HE'LL BE DOWNRIGHT FESTIVE
 





Sufficiently lubricated he began to hand out presents. Farm Girl got a nice Glock and what Uncle liked to describe as "Evening wear"  


SHE WEARS BOTH RATHER WELL

 
 
 
In one of the most poorly chosen gifts of all time, Jack
 
 
 
 
 
received a nice set of cutlery.
 
 
 

 
 
It would have been the all time gift failure had it not been for Leatherface,
 
 
 
 
 


and his new toy...

 
 
 
Between Jack and Leather, "There go the neighborhood" takes on a whole new meaning.
 
 
Easy to buy for Mallory...
 
 
 
 
 
 

Who wouldn't like a nice port-a-ledge?

 
 
 
 
 
Even Pineapple Girl, (and yes folks, there is a HUGE story here, to be told eventually, maybe)...
 
 
 
 
was not forgotten...
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 Delacroix,
 
 
 
Got a new squirrel rifle!
 
 
 
 
Some biggish rodents roam a few of the time lines Lacey visits.
 
NO problem buying for Aunt Agnes!
 
 
 
 
Half a distillery about does the trick!
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Millie Quackenbush is still among the missing, and no one quite knows why...
 
 
 
There's a story there, too, if we ever find it out. She always seemed like the Nice Old Lady from across the orchard, who makes all the fine baked goodies. Huh! Makes you wonder why this picture is up, doesn't it?
 
Dire and Nero got a side of beef...
 
 
 
Mrs. BobKat got a tree house to keep watch from instead of that uncomfortable garden fence pole...
 
 
 
 
Blinky got a built in plush bed installed between the shed walls!
 
 
 
 
 
Who does that leave? Well our newest recruit save Pineapple Girl, our roving reporter Vida G, who is taking a Hawiian Holiday and thus is not here...
 
 
 
 
But Uncle did not forget her...
 
 
 
 
 
He got her a nice coil of rope. In case, you know, she goes sailing, or something.
 
Ever the optimist, Uncle Mac.
 
Oh, and what did the old buzzard get in return? Besides helping Farm Girl extricate herself from her evening wear? Well all his shed pals are sending him on an ice fishing trip to Wisconsin with 6 of his closest ice fishing buddies.
 
 
 
 
 
Where he will also be taking in the Green Bay - Minnesota game. What more does the old coot require?
 
But most important, to all of our great friends and Garden Shed supporters, thanks so much for staying with us.
 
 
 
 
Have the safest, happiest and merriest of Christmas's!

How about celebrating the New Year inside a shed looks fun for me too for a change.
