It's that time of year when we either gather with family and friends or make up an excuse to run full tilt in the other direction.
Here we have our friend Ernie gathering with one or the other. I'm guessing family. Ernie at Christmas; we've seen this before.

Ernie is a favorite "category" of mine only available at one antique store. Every time I go to the store I hope to find a new image of Ernie. Just when I think I've found the last another one pops up. Keeps me going back. And each time I leave the store I fear I will never find another image of Ernie, another moment captured in his life.
Last year I featured 4 posts in a row following Christmas called "One Man's Christmas." You can see part 1
here, 2
here, 3
here, and 4
here. I'd found all of these images on Christmas Eve. Perhaps I need to stop by the store this Christmas Eve to see if Ernie is there celebrating.
There will be more of Ernie this week. Think of it as a buffet of Ernie and that's about as close as I can get to this weeks
Sepia Saturday theme which means I'm not on theme at all.
