My phone sees the sky way cooler than my eyeballs do.
I guess the Northern Lights? As seen from south central Nebraska.

315/365. A petroglyph guy.
A round figure with huge, crazy eyes and giant open mouth with jagged teeth. It has teddy bear ears and a nappy, curly beard. It is wearing red cowboy boots. Standing on its head is a little guy holding his arms up; he has yellow gloves and boots. The main figure has a bone and mushroom sticking out from behind its back.

We've had a couple of freezes now; I think my garden is done. I thought I'd bore everyone with photos of some of what it has produced, in chronological order!

May 19th:
Seven radishes in a sink.

313/365. Pretty, pretty dance! Pretty, pretty, pretty dance!
A derelict cousin of The Prince from the Katamari video games. He has an open and slightly crushed beer can as headgear, a stained and too-small undershirt, stained briefs, and stained athletic socks. He is pushing a bowling ball and appears either hungover or still a little drunk.

Y'all want some bawled orsters?
8oz cans of Pampa Boiled Oysters in a discount grocery store. A 3"x5" lined index card with "Orsters cans 2 For 100" written on it is taped to the shelf.

A triggerfish looking at the viewer. It has human arms and legs, standing with hands on the "hips". Decorative text reads: "seems awfully fishy".

A yellow alien quadruped with one eye, horns, and a little tail stands in a pastel landscape. The land is a sea green and the sky is a pale purplish pink. There are two purple lumpy cactus-like plants with sparse blue foliage.

Facebook thought I needed to see an ad for this shirt. I hadn't heard the epithet before, but it's a really funny thing to picture.
A red t-shirt with white text reading "IOWA EATS CORN THE LONG WAY" and an image of an ear of corn.

309/365. That's going to be it for the fingering, I think.
An anthropomorphic sandwich made from regular store-bought sliced bread. It is wearing red Converse low-tops. Poking out from between the bread are some slices of tomato, leaves of lettuce, a slice of cheese, and several human fingers. Text below reads "finger sandwich".

303/365. Trick or treat!
A demon standing in front of an open door holding a jack-o-lantern bucket. He is wearing a boxy t-shirt with a football and the word "sports" and shorts. He is also wearing a cheap plastic mask of a smiling human child.

Simple cartoons of Glinda the Good, the Wicked Witch of the West, and an anthropomorphic sandwich. Captions under each read, "good", "bad", and "sand".

A drawing of a desiccated but animated mummy. It's a bust view; clawing hands are just visible in the bottom corners.

A Nosferatu sort of vampire. He has a big head with bulgy red eyes, pointy ears, and long, thin fingers that he is holding outward for some reason. His two front fangs are bunny-style rather than in the canine orientation.

299/365.
A grotesque cartoon of Frankenstein's Monster. He has lots of patchwork scars, stitches, and staples all over his head. He has one small, sleepy eye and one very large, very alert eyeball popping from the socket. His hands are raised, but in a semi-relaxed position. His mouth is open exposing gnarled gums and an array of chipped and misaligned teeth. He seems pretty happy, despite his circumstances.

A cartoon of Chucky from Child's Play. He is holding a knife and vaguely resembles an old Campbell's Soup Kid.
