That is Priceless by Steve Melcher for September 05, 2019

Girls Gone Log Rolling Wild!

What do you call a group of wood nymphs?

“We are lumberjacks and we’re ok…” except for the splinters.

Long before pirates introduced walking the plank Miss Behavens Finishing School invented walking the log.

Was this lakeside bLOGging site the first attempt at creating Tumblr?

Sorority initiations after the all-night party.

Wanna see my eyes light up? Pull my tail. My pony tail, that is!!!

They’re female mathematicians practicing their log rhythms…

The one thing you don’t want in this group is a splinter faction…

“Oh, Hermione dear, have you logged in yet?” Ah, thereby hangs a tail!

Ahhhh, the playful girls of summer! How long they frolic where it’s bucolic! The joy they feel is hyperbolic! But like trees and seasons, all must fall; the wheel must turn: it’s parabolic!

“What’s more fun than playing with some wood in the morning?”

“Seven Brides for Seven Brides”, the all-nude, all-singing, all-dancing Broadway hit.

Sometimes I really wonder what the h..l were some original painting stories .

When they said there would be, BIG WOOD, I was expecting something else !

How pole dancing got its start….

This is as easy as falling off….

Dude in orange, from a prison road crew thinking, “I’ve gone to heaven.”

Summer Camp in Maine…..just before the girls learned about black flies, mosquitos, and poison ivy!

Ok, that’s not what you expect to see at a construction site.

If she pushes me off this log one more time, I’m hiding her clothes in the poison ivy.

Spartan gymnastics try outs were very competitive.

It seems like a jolly affair/ and it is – while Summer is there/ but the onslaught of Winter/ is far worse than a splinter/ when one hasn’t a thing to wear.

sue (orange dress, center) was much too shy to participate in the logger girls gone wild video…

And they still say Jenny was cheating even though she had nothing to hide.

“Clothing is so unnecessary! We would never bother with it were it not for the unfortunate reaction of the boys who might see us like this. Except for Saison. He would not be effected in the least. He’s strange, peculiar, odd… ummm, what’s that other synonym I’m looking for?”

White House Secretarial Pool Try-Outs. Only the “very best” candidates need apply.

Lucky man that Hugo.

Laundry day at the girls’ school…everything is in the laundry!

Record number of comments today, for some reason.

Somebody’s great yard sale find. Will be taken to the traveling Antiques Show. ( Grandma made him keep that filthy painting in the garage. )

Some have said, and written, that the best way to get on the cover of Hef’s magazine was to get under the covers of Hef’s bed.

GREATEST moment in phallic portraiture.

Practicing for the first annual Lumberjill World Championship.

These girls appear to be of questionable age. I suspect that currently the mere possession of this pic can get you a jail term and permanent label as a predator…

The artist found painting this scene extremely stressful and had to take several breaks while it was under creation.

I once met the Women’s Log Rolling World Champion at a timber carnival in Albany, OR. She wasn’t dressed like that, though.

OK, looks like we’ve got this part down. Let’s move the logs to the water and see how we do.

Preppin’ fer the woodchopper’s’ ball.

Miss Porter’s Finishing School For The Very Rich prided itself in teaching its young ladies proper posture and sophisticated stride in an open, uninhibited atmosphere.Years later, society matrons fondly recalled “walking the logs” with their classmates.

The untold history of the founding of the Girl Scouts.

Koyaanisqatsi

you gals don’t have to play on those poles, the men will be along soon.

It’s rare that you can see the moon so clearly during the day

No matter how much they practiced, rolling on the logs was never as popular as rolling in the hay.

God bless you, Mr. Hefner. God bless you.

I expected to see that the artist is Czech ‘cause I’m enjoying czeching out this painting…

“Look at those two weirdos down at the end - all dressed up and nowhere to go.”

Girl on her knees: “Honestly, Ophelia, you shouldn’t lay like that. It’s unladylike.”

Ah the good old days before I was born. Dammit!~

Yeah, the log-rolling competition was brutal.
