Day 185: Happy Independence Day!

Saturday, July 5, 2014

It was  low keyed 4th of July around our house.  Lugnut and Lugwrench are in New Mexico at Lugwrench’s brother’s retirement from the US Navy! The Dailylife Daughter #2 and Toots got painted up and went to the parade, which they said was a lot shorter than normal.  The only aircraft was the Mercy Flight […]

Day 183: Hump Day!

Saturday, July 5, 2014

The 2014 is half over today! While I was on my way down to the River I saw several Pelicans circling.  Unfortunately it was on the other side of the River, just about over Black Eagle Dam.  For such a large, ungainly looking bird, Pelicans are supremely graceful in flight. So without further delay, Pelicans […]

Day 177

Thursday, June 26, 2014

I stopped over at West Bank Park to see if there were any birds hiding there.  Giant Springs has been pretty bare for the last couple of weeks…mostly Bluebirds and Canadian Geese with fairly old goslings…they aren’t that cute yellow anymore!  No birds of note, but I found something…a stick floating in the stream?  Mutant […]
