The day the mountain crumbled

The Frank Slide

90 million tons of limestone rock slid down Turtle Mountain within 90 seconds.

I may or may not have purchased this wallet for the vintage aspect alone. Yeah. . . it's purdy, ain't it. 

Santa is dead drunk or just dead. Here's your proof.

I hope you enjoy October's efforts.
