so this is sort of across the street from the Ceder Lodge (see last post). it was going to be a nice and fancy new hotel. we think the Cedar Lodge may have had something to do with this. all that is left is some cinder blocks from the elevator shaft. it was HUGE! i had the hose ready at our house, just in case, cause those embers were flying everywhere. but no one was hurt (seriously, i think one fireman went to the hospital, but mostly as a precaution).

i really do think one of the ladies of ill repute who make up the clientele at the Cedar Lodge probably got nervous about her business dwindling with the "building up" of the area...you would think she would have been stoked at the influence of business men...

CEDER LODGE

all sorts of unmentionable things happen at this place. it is seedy. but i can see the sign from our lawn (if i walk all the way to the edge and look down the road), and i have been kind of wanting to take a pic of it for a while. so the other night, when i had to go to the 7-11, i grabbed my camera and walked from my car (yup, i drove all 45 seconds down the road, i am telling you...seedy) and took a picture. then ran back to my car.

JAIMEE and the SHOULDER DRAGON

the only non-food item i seriously considered buying (besides a shark in formaldehyde, damn sharks) was one of these little shoulder dragon things that you could make move it's head. it was pretty cool, they were a little scary and awesome.

266. ERIC TOTALLY DIGGIN' THE TURKEY

ERIC LIKES TURKEY, HATES ME FOR TAKING HIS PIC

not really. i could have eaten 12 of those f-ing turkey legs. although i did a good job of eating everything else i saw.

265. Pipe Lady

she kept on blowing on the round thing near her bum. coincidentally, it made fart noises...all the kids seemed to really dig her.

264. REN-VIOLIN

we totally went to the Ren-Fest today. i had never been to one, and i have to tell you, anyplace with so many choices of deep fried food on a stick is just fine in my book.
