Odds and Ends

I'm feeling lazy today, so here's a few pics of some things I've been up to lately.

My brother Dan and I built a deck in my backyard a couple of weeks ago...nothing too fancy, but it's better than the little slab that's been back there for years.

The finished product...now I just need one of those big-ass umbrella/stand things to provide some shade. I sat out here the other night under the Moonlight...it was very peaceful and relaxing. I like sitting out here, beverage in hand...

...in fact, here are several people, beverages in hand on my deck (insert jokes here).

I also made a trip to the Zoo recently...

...here are the new black leopards, cat-napping. One cracked his eye ever so slightly open to look at me for a split-second, then closed it. I don't like having my naps interrupted, either.

Here's another cat at the Zoo.

Here's the resident tiger, making faces at me.

I hope everyone is having a good weeknd ...I may have some more film reviews posted later, if I get ambitious enough. See you later!
