Here are my boys dressed up and ready to go! They also wanted their Vader pumpkins in the photo...
For the next challenge I would like to see a good, creative sunrise photo.

Took the dog out to the dog park this morning and snapped a couple photos along the way (in case this doesn't count as "artsy" enough):

Just in case, here's my dog and a sunrise which may be closer than they appear:
New challenge: get a picture of your 4Runner next to a building that's at least 150 years old.

150 year old building??
Easy peasy! There are probably a dozen homes from the early 1800s within walking distance from my house. This one is especially interesting as the plantation dates back to the 1790s, was destroyed by fire killing 8 people including 4 young girls, one of whom was a slave girl they were teaching to read, it was rebuilt over a large geode in the early 1800s, saw action in both the Revolutionary and Civil Wars, has a Revolutionary war-era cemetery on-site, and is reputed to be one of the most haunted structures in America.
The next challenge: You 4Runner next to something in your neck of the woods that is supposed to be haunted or mystical.

The "ghost of Charlie" resides here...

St Mary's Catholic Cemetery, Ferndale, Calif.

Next challenge, your 4R with two campaign signs for opposing candidates for the same race in the same picture. Doesn't have to be national level politics. Local stuff is fine.

Amazing pic
@ MeefZah
Been reading about that cemetery for 10 min or so. According to 1 webpage, there is a vampire buried there! Will check it out next time I'm in the area.
Been to any of the others on this list?

10 California Cemeteries Stalked by Vampires

Thanks.
I have not been to any others on that list. I live about 1/2 mile from St Mary's but that is the first I've heard about a vampire or roaming ghost dogs. I looked at the site, they describe a masoleum in the back where he is supposed to be buried... but there is no masoleum in the back...dunno.
At any rate, there are two similar cemeteries in town - both are on hillsides and feature similar designs.
Here's a few other pics, a few I took today in response to the challenge but I decided to go with the one I posted above.
St Mary's:
Ferndale Cemetery:
From the top:
To totally pimp my shit out, all my images since 2013 are hosted at the site linked in my signature...
I always think of this scene from Joe Dirt coming over the hill and overlooking "Silverton" when I look down on this town from the top of the hill- and HOLY SHIT - I just Googled the filming location and it actually is Ferndale... I thought it looked familiar. Turn it 90 degrees.

Easy this time of year... Directly between Trump and Clinton, and a bunch of locals...
Next challenge; on topic, yours using your second amendment right. Shooting range, gun store or even the hatch open showing some weaponry.

Supporting my local gun shop and not a national chain. Next challenge is a pic of your runner with a National park/Forest sign.

Here's your national park sign! The next challenge is your 4R with an unusual geological formation. It can be a cave entrance, canyon, waterfall or an odd-looking rock... just something interesting.
