Luckily for me, MB has not dressed me up like a Pilgrim or a Thanksgiving turkey or other food item to snap a photo of me.

But Christmas is coming soon. Dogs and cats, I implore you to watch out for humans bearing red stocking caps, antlers, or jingle bells. They may be preparing to use you as a prop for the annual Christmas card photograph.

Watching the destruction

Touille still looks

This past Sunday was a beautiful sunny day. MB brought me with her on a photo-taking expedition. We drove by Busch Stadium which is being torn down so that the new Busch Stadium (visible in the right side of the photo) can take its place.

You can see me in the car looking at all the hustle and bustle of activity. Mostly knocking down and moving of rubble was happening on Sunday. The construction part of the operation might only happen on weekdays.

There were many humans looking at the scene, but I was the only dog around. Perhaps other dogs came by later, but I remained in the vehicle so was unable to leave them any dog messages.
