The Neighborhood Mannequin Has Gotten Political
Top photo from September, shot in the Orange Fire Ash Fog. Vote democratic to save the environment, before the rest of the country looks like the burning down west coast.
Bottom photo from March, when the sun was shining and the sky was Blue in California. Mannequin Bunny has since seen the light!
