That Rasputin is a flamin' monster, but you have captured him beautifully!!!

Thanks, Sirius_one. A dangerous character for sure, and one doesn't want to take him lightly, even as a leaf. But a good leaf-blower and he'll be on his way to Cleveland!

Thanks for the kind comments and your visit, they're always much appreciated! Have a Happy Halloween!

I suspect that it would be wise to avoid the dark woods this close to Halloween. However, if you do that who will keep us up to date on the latest developments? Your bravery and perseverance are appreciated.

What in the world will I do if this shows up at our door Halloween night!!!
He's down there but could easily come up here.
This is scary and there's no security to combat this.
You're a brave man Randy confronting this creature!

Thanks, Val. But even a single Rasputin is one too many, lol. Still, it would be one interesting tree, wouldn't it? LOL

Thanks, Carol. Those woods are always iffy, but especially around Halloween, one needs to be extra-cautious with characters like this hanging around. Of course, Rasputin wouldn't have stood a chance against the Martian when it comes to being devious. After all, Rasputin was just a mad monk, whereas the Martian is the Minister of Mayhem!

But if I do go into the woods next weekend, you can bet it will be with a leaf-blower in hand! LOL

Thanks for your kind words and visit, they're always much appreciated!

Thanks, Pierre. If this character shows up Trick-or-Treating at your door, after you give him his candy bar, repeat three times the words, "Gort--Klaatu barada nicto." That should fix him! Or at least give you time to run for your leaf-blower, which, if you're smart, you'll keep by the door. Just in case.

LOL

Thanks for the laugh and your visit, always enjoy and appreciate them!

When I ponder I get in trouble because my brain is ensconced in jello...( I love using these big words you teach me!! )...remember, many tried to kill Rasputin...( I think for suspected dalliances with their wives or something!! )...and he kept coming back!! Beware my friend!!...good shot of him!

Thanks, Bob. Nothing wrong with jello--there's always room for it, lol. Rasputin was quite the character. From all accounts, he was filthy, both literally and figuratively, and one has to wonder about the taste of Russian ladies at that point. There's such a thing as carrying 'fashionable' too far, lol. But then, I don't pretend to understood women, Russian or otherwise.

Thanks for your fun comments and visit, they're always much appreciated!

Thanks, Bob. I find there are always 'shady' characters hanging around here in the fall. I just happened to spot 'Rasputin' here a day or two before he fell from the tree, lol. Can't imagine how many other 'visitors' I've missed over the years. So many leaves, so little time... ; )

Thanks for your kind comment and visit, it's always very much appreciated!
