All of my Friends are Flakes

Frosty in July??  I passed this “cool” guy at The Rock Shoppe on my way home from work one day, and made a point to go back and take a picture of him.  What is better than a snowman on a 104 degree July day in Michigan??  I love it.
First stop before publishing this post was to visit The Rock Shoppe‘s website and I see that they have a song about rocks, by Ann Arbor’s own Dick Siegel.  If you have ever had a kid that collected rocks, be sure to take a listen.  The following lyrics made me laugh out loud:
I got rocks, rocks in my pocket, had em in my pocket since I was a kid
I’m now having flashbacks of requesting my son to empty his pockets of rocks before he came in the house.  This is a good thing.  The flashbacks, I mean.  And the rocks.
I will be sure to keep an eye on this corner lot (Gotfredson and N. Territorial) – if there is a Snowman in July, what should I expect in January?
