A Little Inter-Species Camping

Our friend the squirrel has driven through some rough

country to find the perfect camping spot.

He and his friend set up camp.

If only he could get rid of the stupid chin strap!

Sweet little sleeping bag. Looks like Carl has to sleep on the ground.

Carl takes a load off while waiting for dinner to cook.

Gotta watch out for nature.

And what happens when you forget to

put away the food when you're done? Visitors!

Lit by the last rays of the sun and the dying campfire,

the friends lie down for a good night's rest.

My son and I went to Target to check out MiWorld toys. I was ready to buy several but found I was not that excited by the ones they had there. However, they had Li'l Woodzeez by Battat. They are sets with woodland creatures much like Calico Critters. We liked the little squirrel and the camping set. It was the start of this scene. The set is comprised of the items pictured below.

The "Privy"ledge of Having a Private Privy

When you live in the middle of nowhere you are "privy"ledged

to have a privy with a a window wall. SOME outhouse!

This little bathroom has everything...running water and humorous posters,

a flush toilet,

reading material,

first-aid kit,

MC5 poster,

Yikes! "Who" is that peeking in!

Just when a girl needs some private reading time.

Big teaser...he's The Doctor and he lives here!

I am on a roll with minis now. I woke up this morning with a great idea and Labor Day is the perfect day to goof around. I had to make another cabinet for my cool sink...took me forever to get it just the right size. My husband had the idea of making someone peek around the corner and I picked Doctor Who. Again I used something I had never used before...the toilet.

Ahhh...to be in Hawaii with too many clothes on!

Beautiful black sand beach, cool cabana, lotsa drinks and...too many clothes!! Who goes to Hawaii with boots on? Who goes to Hawaii and sits on the beach in a suit? Who brings a warm jacket? I do see that they have towels in their bags and maybe swimsuits. Could be they just misjudged the weather after arriving from Michigan.

Yum...blue drinks.

I had used this Ikea laptable before in a scene but got the idea to put it up the right way. Instant cabana! And my sister and her family had brought me back black sand from Hawaii. Perfect time to make good use of it. This is the scene in progress.
