Ass You Like It . . .

.
.
Am running now, out to Brittany for a spot of vacation, decompression, breathing slowly. . . so I gotta get my Ass out of here, and head on down the road for a while. But I'll be back. While visiting the Chateau de Chantilly the other day, I saw a nice Ass in a window, and couldn't resist taking a photo of it, because it made me smile while remembering the absolutely unbelievably beautiful Ass that Stickup Artist shared with us recently. So this first Ass is my photo from a Chateau window, a rather high class, perhaps pompous, Ass if ever there was one, living the Chateau life. Stickup Artist's Ass is a more mundane, desert living kind of Ass. Personally, I'll take the desert life over the chateau life any day. But now I really gotta run . . .

The all-time most wonderful ass I think I ever saw however is Stickup Artist's Ass which she posted not long ago, and I'm posting it here without having asked her permission, but I'm hoping, hoping, hoping, that she will laugh with pleasure when she sees that her Ass has travelled all the way to France, and not ask me to kick her Ass off my page here. I reproduce it here as a pure homage to her incredible talents as a graphic artist and photographer, and strongly encourage you all to get your ass over to her place to check out not only her Ass, but her herons, and mountains, and oceans, and moonscapes, and deserts, and signs, and her pure magic. Thank you Stickup for the fabulous voyage you are taking us on. Gotta run now, or my Ass is grass . . . (so again, the below Ass is Stickup Artist's amazing creation)

Dearest Owen,

I'm absolutely laughing my Ass off ! Positively thrilled that at least my Ass has made it to France! Now maybe the rest of me can follow. Thank you so much for the shout out, links, all your amazingly kind words and for reproducing my Ass! I'm truly touched. You really made my day Owen! I'm simply floored. Just think, a Stained Glass Ass!

Enjoy your vacation and Happy Trails My Friend!

Bonnes vacances cher Owen, rapporte-nous tout plein de belles anecdotes que nous sommes déjà impatients de lire en ta compagnie.
Bises et à bientôt !

Enjoy your vacation. Pretty strange that the last thing you leave on your blog before you leave on vacation is a couple asses. huh.

Chantilly is such an equine mecca, sigh.
As a kid there were donkey rides at the beach for sixpence a time. Maybe you will see some long ears in Brittany. Enjoy the respite from the madding crowds.

Makes me just want to make an ass myself, Owen. Have a nice holiday - hope it's not donkey's years before we see you again.

Have a good time at the beach but don't stay away too long. A legion of Ass followers await.

Have a great break from expediting, Owen. You no doubt need it, not to mention deserve it!

I love both your Stained Glass Ass and your pixelated ass from the Stickup Artist. It's nice to see her receiving acknowledgment in Blahglandia for her superlative hand/eye coordination.

Bonne route!

Enjoy your tripping in Brittany - do you get spears with that??
