GOOD TUESDAY MORNING TO STEVE,VICKY, NORMA, MEGAN, SHARON, DANA, GLO,AND RED
It is beginning to look alot like Christmas......Jingle bells, jingle bells, jingle all the way...Chestnuts roasting on an open fire.......I'm dreaming of a late white Christmas.....O the weather outside is frightful.......I think that about does it to let you know that it is snowing here on the Outer Banks of NC this morning. Just started about 30 minutes ago. :)

carolinabeachmom said...

What a way to celebrate our Inauguration Day! I sure hope DC doesn't get any of it. Been up watching all the friendly people gathered together as one enjoying the day so far.

carolinabeachmom said...

SHARON glad to hear that you are doing better, and getting on.

STEVE please open the blinds on our eagle nest. I have to go back to school tomorrow and want to have a peek at them today. Thanks

DANA I bet you are right that Liberty and Belle flew to DC for the big doings today and shut their blinds to keep the cold out of the nest.:)

carolinabeachmom said...

Gee, I am smeling bacon cooking in the kitchen. My hubby must be up. Better go and see if he wants me to bake a coffee cake for breakfast to go with it. BB

normabyrd said...

normabyrd said...

WOW!----I have SUNSHINE on my shoulders---now!!!

hedgie said...

Good morning, eagle lovers!
Norma (our politico supreme), I bet you are glued to the TV today, aren't you? Don't think they could pay me to be in that mob!
Candy, are you off because of snow, or because of it being Inauguration day?
It was 11° here at 7am....brrrr..snuggled back under the covers for an hour, but not much improvement--hate having to hustle to get the fire built back up!!
Wish our cam was up!

normabyrd said...

HELEN---Any news from PAULA?

hedgie said...

Has anyone heard from Loretta? Don't think she was on at all yesterday, and she hasn't read an email I sent her yesterday morning. Oh, Loretta!!!! Hope everything is ok with you!

hedgie said...

Newspaper article said that there may have been two jaguars involved in the incident at Catoctin. It said the lady was taken to Shock Trauma, but didn't give an update on her condition.

Mits said...

NO, NORMA..

Mema Jo said...

Good Morning on this very historic day!
The Momster across the pond sent us a beautiful card for today. I am glad to see the BWE waiting for me.
No word from Paula and I really didn't see anything in today's or yesterday's paper. You who have your Christmas address list should be able to send cards
I'll let you know the minute I hear from her and you do the same. Prayers for Paula to be strong for her family and have peace in her heart.

Mema Jo said...

Not too many cams up/running this morning. Must all be on a holiday!

normabyrd said...

MORNIN' HEDGIE!---Just turn your TV pm & stay in BED!!----ho!---
I know I sound like a kid----but I am always amazed watching the Secret Serice. et al!!----Remember----LBJ got out of the car (with the SS screaming) & walked---shaking hands with everyone!!

hedgie said...

Glo has more beauties posted!!

floralgirl said...

Hello again:)
The Obamas just arrived at the white house for their meeting with the Bushes.
I shouldv'e gotten sponsors, only the lack of funds kept me from DC-I would've loved to be there. The excitiemnt, the history, I love being down on the mall, been there many times for big events, alas, I am glued to the tv....
Jo, can you send me Paula's address, I never got the Xmas list , I cannot get the Momsters mail to come to my inbox anymore...

normabyrd said...

Thanks HELEN & JO!!----

normabyrd said...

JO!---I have been so concerned about PAULA----I remember all too well----You have to grow up in a hurry---but she does have a brother!!!

floralgirl said...

Here is the DC cam Earthcam Capitol cam

Mits said...

Megan normally that cam is always stationary, but since yesterday they have be panning it from Capitol to Union Station

normabyrd said...

MEGAN---Wish you had called!---ho!
Seriously---I would loved to have gone!!

Mits said...

somehow I knew this would happen...

Person Struck by Gallery Place Metro Train

Metro said a person was struck by a train at the Gallery Place Metro Station. Metro said the person is alive and trapped between the crawl space and the first rail. Gallery Place Red Line traffic is stopped

Mits said...

I love the Metro it is fabulous here, but it can get very crowded, and confusing...

floralgirl said...

Thanks, Helen:)
Yeah, I've been watching that cam since late last nite, watching C-span on tv also.
Pileated woodpecker is outside my window, I'd get a pic, but I don't want to scare him away.

floralgirl said...

Oh, that's awful, with such large criowds, it's easy to see how someone could fall or get pushed down there.

Mits said...

Megan , hubby has it on NBC....maybe C-Span is the way to go.....

Eagle-Eyed's Sissy said...

Hello all, been lurking around this morning!! Excitement is in the air for sure. Something like that was almost bound to happen in DC. Lucky if that is the only thing that happens (bet the one who is stuck doesn't feel lucky though). We had a big ole red-tailed hawk out here this morning, red-bellied woodpecker amongst the other usual beautiful birds.

Mema Jo said...

Whoa! Another multivehicle crash on Interstate 81 north of Chambersburg this morning. Two people are confirmed dead.
At 9:13 a.m. both northbound lanes of I-81 are closed and one southbound lane is open, police said.

Prayers for those that died & those that were injured! Weather is the
contributing factor - People need to slow it down..

normabyrd said...

MEGAN---I hope the bird isn't 'tapping' on you window?----Aren't they beautiful--but noisy!! ho!

floralgirl said...

C-Span is pretty good, no breaking away for commercials, and they are really showing the crowds in DC.

Mema Jo said...

Thanks for that link, Megan.
You should have mail.

floralgirl said...

He isn't tapping on my house, Norma, just on a tree right outside it. He is gorgeous. Hubby saw a big red fox this morning, just after daylight, of couse I walked out two minutes too late...

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

We have a first cousin that lives in Chambersburg.

hedgie said...

Norma, I don't recall the specifics, but remember something about "witches birds" that tap on windows, signifying a pending death within....there was a Nancy Drew book that featured it when I was a kid..it made a big impression on me, and my mean little sister rode my a.. about it and made it into a big joke. So, one night, with the help of my ever-lovin' daddy, I snuck outside and using his belt buckle, I tapped on her bedroom window!!! Scared her pretty "good'!!

normabyrd said...

OH HEDGIE!!---You are "mean"!!---ho!---I had a younger sister too!---She used to get away with MURDER!!--ho!----That's so funny!----Oh how I loved those NANCY DREW books!!----

Mema Jo said...

I have been able to find out from Paula's work place that Paula's mom has been cremated and a Memorial Service will be set up. The family is waiting for her son to return from Jamaica.

With this info I pray all of us can now
relax our worries for our special gal!
WE LOVE YOU PAULA & Prayers and positive thoughts are coming at you and your family!

normabyrd said...

I have CH 7---ABC---no commercials
--FRONT DOOR OF WHITE HOUSE OPEN---here they come---

Mema Jo said...

Do you see any Sec Svc men up on the roof of the capitol? The cam seems to have a good zoom... I pray they get the injured person off the Metro tracks...

ceil said...

Good cold morning all. It is cold. I thought it was going to warm up. Hope it does by Saturday or there could be ice on the bay.
Thanks Jo regarding Paula's mom. Just mailed a card to her.
Lynn the zoo keeper is still in critical condition according to the Baltimore news.
We had to go out last night and it was icy and trucks and cars did not slow down.

Eagle-Eyed's Sissy said...

Thanks, Mema Jo, for the info on Paula!! Prayers and love sent her way.

normabyrd said...

Thanks JO!---PAULA has certainly handled things well!!----My thoughts & prayers are with her & her family---

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

Wonder what is up with our cam??

Mits said...

it went down early last evening Sharon, right after the last visit.....I hope they did not bump into the cam while they where in the top branches...the cam view changed yesterday, think the gorilla tape might be slipping

Mema Jo said...

I am trying to get myself ready for a 2:00 appointment plus stay glued to the CHN 7 TV.

I'll check in here a little later

Mits said...

our cam is up with an EAGLE IN IT

Mits said...

SHE'S EATING

ceil said...

We have a new president. God bless him.

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

We officially have our 44th president!!

ceil said...

Eagle in nest to just in time to welcome the new president. GOD BLESS AMERICA

ceil said...

For a few minutes Biden was president because it was a few minutes after noon.

ceil said...

One eagle still in our nest.
Two at BWO. They really do like that platform.

Mits said...

long lunch for our eagle Ceil...

Eagle-Eyed's Sissy said...

Well, that was a very impressive speech. He can certainly make speeches better than his predecessor.

Eagle-Eyed's Sissy said...

The wind is about to blow our eagle's hat off!!

Mits said...

well, we shall see, actions speak louder than words

Eagle-Eyed's Sissy said...

Right Mits, the proof is in the puddin'! But I am hopeful!

floralgirl said...

Well, I will remain optomistic, cause actions do speak luoder than words, and I have not cared for the actions of the last 8 years.....
Sorry, I'm fired up....

Mema Jo said...

So glad I'm checking back in! Noisy up there in the nest.. I grabbed a sandwich and tuned in to the Eagles' lunch. Fantastic!

Our 44th gave a very dramatic speech - His words were really powerful and meaningful! I was very impressed

Mema Jo said...

Time for me to get ready to go for the 2:00 - just the foot Dr.

I shall return
Keep your eyes on that eagle!!!

BBL

Eagle-Eyed's Sissy said...

I am with ya Megan!! I am so very hopeful for the first time in years and years!! No more GWB!!!

floralgirl said...

Yeah, sorry, no politics, I know, but how can ya not talk about it today. I have lost a lot of hope and I need some change(literally...lol...) onward and upward for the USA!!
Off to school to pick up kid who was working on a drama project this am...bbl...

Eagle-Eyed's Sissy said...

I recorded it on a DVD for Mattie to have, definitely history in the making.

deb said...

I am finally home. We got into Omaha at 11:30 last night and it was drizzling, so we decided not to drive home. Coming back to winter after a week in the 80's is not my idea of fun!

deb said...

An eagle, what a nice coming home surprise!

Eagle-Eyed's Sissy said...

Ok, so it didn't record to DVD but I did record it on the DVR as well, so maybe I can get that onto a disc.

ceil said...

Welcome back Deb. You were missed. Know the feeling. Wanting to go to Florida.

Mits said...

welcome home Deb, we really missed you....

Mits said...

speaking as a person who lives close to places that terrorists want to destroy, I hope that I feel as safe the next 4 years, as I have the last 8 years...JMHO:)

Mits said...

Deb you sure had recording breaking temps out there....how did the wedding go.....BTW Big Rig Steve blew a transmission and is off line, truck has to be towed to Kansas to be fixed

Mits said...

EAGLE BACK IN NEST

Mits said...

finishing the leftovers

Mits said...

LIB JUST LANDED

Mits said...

she wants to eat and he wants to work

Mits said...

bless her she just sneezed

deb said...

I am off to pick up the dogs. BBL

deb said...

Or maybe not, I had to turn the cams back on!

Mits said...

she is not sharing that big old fish

deb said...

Is your video freezing up every once in a while?

hedgie said...

Had to laugh when Jo talked about eating her lunch with the eagles....she must have a strong stomach like me!!!
Welcome home, Deb! Hope you had a great time...are you ready to grab the dogs and go back to the warmth??

Mits said...

yes freezing up big time

Mits said...

Belle needs to come up for air...

Eagle-Eyed's Sissy said...

Belle is not sharing her lunch with Lib, is she?

deb said...

Yes, Lynn. It was in the 80's all week, we couldn't have asked for better weather.

Eagle-Eyed's Sissy said...

This little dog is so funny. If we sneeze or cough or clap our hands or anything like that, he barks his head off!!

hedgie said...

Mits, you have mail!

hedgie said...

Oh, Sissy, Cinnamon doxie does the same thing if it startles her--like when she's dozing!

hedgie said...

She is beginning to get hard of hearing, tho', so it's not as bad as it used to be. She used to be SO attracted to animal sounds on TV, and would actually watch the screen as long as there was an animal making noise...but not much anymore.

hedgie said...

One gone...?Belle?

deb said...

I like the new Lake Washington Live Cam. It was nice to see one eagle in the nest for a bit when I found the cam.

Eagle-Eyed's Sissy said...

Deb, it really is good to have you back. I bet it really was hard leaving that beautiful weather though.

Lynn, he does it no matter what he is doing or we are doing.

Eagle-Eyed's Sissy said...

Snowing here again!

deb said...

We have two eagles again.

normabyrd said...

DEB!---So HAPPY!! -- YOU ARE HOME!---REALLY---REALLY HAVE MISSED YOU!---But I am glad you got to enjoy the warm weather & spend time with your friends!!!

Mits said...

LYNN, back at ya...

Mits said...

looks like food all gone

Mits said...

poof.........

normabyrd said...

MEGAN---& SISSY---I think it's wonderful that we have this new President!----Never thought this day would ever happen!!---It is going to be rough---but will be interesting!! He is so intelligent!!

deb said...

Now, I am really off to get the dogs. I am downloading my pictures, but will have to wait for my sister to send pictures from the wedding festivities to have any people pictures.

Mits said...

will look forward to them, Deb

hedgie said...

Looking forward to your pics, Deb!

normabyrd said...

WHOA DEB!----I bet your dogs will be so excited to see you---they will never calm down!----

normabyrd said...

Hope JO gets good news from Dr.---Wonderful -- she seems to be feeling so much better!---(and that is such a good thing)

Mema Jo said...

Back from the foot DR "Dancing Feet"
Hope Wanda checks in soon about her knee!
I think her Dr appointment was also today


WELCOME HOME DEB

Ordered some eagles in the nest for you


I am wondering what you meant about the new Lake WA cam... How long have you been gone!!!
Anxious to see your pics & even more so to see the wedding people!

wvgal_dana said...

Deb welcome home...

Thanks Jo for update on Paula's Mother. Prayers to a special lady and her family.

This is a very historical day in US History. We all must pray for our NEW PRESIDENT. Report on Ted Kennedy is he is ok. The long of the day and cold tired him out and helped caused the seizure. Senator Byrd was taken out due to being upset about his friend Senator Kennedy.

Prayers for those involved in different traffic accidents. Plus the metro accident.

Mema Jo said...

BWE in nest

Mema Jo said...

Puppy cam is up/running

Our military being represented going past.

Mema Jo said...

Phone call from gd setting up a time tomorrow for the shoe store visit - all 3 little ones! We still go down here to
Stride Rite - love their service and how they fit those little feet!

Dana Ed like the Steelers game? lol
I bet that perked him up!

wvgal_dana said...

Thanks for asking Jo. Yes he was thrilled needless to say. He was already feeling better but that put the icing on the cake.

wvgal_dana said...

President and wife are out walking.

Mema Jo said...

BWE resting in the nest... Remember that their eggs come before ours.....

Mema Jo said...

Going in to the TV

BBL

wvgal_dana said...

They just put the President and First Lady back into the car.

wvgal_dana said...

We have to keep an eye on BWE to see if she stays in nest overnight.

wvgal_dana said...

eagle gone at BWE
1 still BWO

Costume Lady said...

Good Afternoon...
Back from the doctor...Have a new knee! Doctor had to try three times to get needle in right spot. He said I have a lot of "stuff" in the way of the needle (a bone), doesn't everyone?? It is so numb, I can't tell if it is better or not. I'll let you know tomorrow. LOL

Thanks, Jo, for update on Paula's Mom.

Dana, glad Ed is feeling better. Did he have the same "Bug" that has been going around?

WELCOME HOME, DEB! You know we want photos.

T-Bird said...

good evening everyone

T-Bird said...

glad to see the camera is up

movin said...



**GREAT DAY**

**EVERYONE**


It's really been a great, awesome Inauguration, don't you think!!

So many historical resonances, and the force of the new President's message and the general feeling of joy and brotherhood in the crowds...

It all reminds me of a combination of JFK's Inauguration and Martin Luther King's "I have a dream" speech. What a great, historic day!


C(°Ù¿°)D

Jim

Costume Lady said...

Hi Thelma! Glad you got on here...you seem to bring our 2 Mountaineers to the nest:)

T-Bird said...

hello Jim and Wanda

Costume Lady said...

Yes, Jim, it was an impressive Inaugration. Obama seems to want to do all the things he promised us when he was running for President. I pray that he is successful. I haven't had time to view all that we recorded, but did hear his address to the nation. 20 minutes seemed short, sweet and to the point.

T-Bird said...

well, so far no magic Wanda :)

Costume Lady said...

They came yesterday at 5:16...flew away and returned at 5:30pm.

Costume Lady said...

Lib and Belle, I'm going to fix supper, you can come on into the nest now...you little teasers:)

T-Bird said...

That's right Wanda. We have been patient long enough!

T-Bird said...

I wonder if they feel our spirits?

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

There is no doubt in my mind that they feel our spirits!

T-Bird said...

that's exciting stuff

T-Bird said...

here we go

wvgal_dana said...

EAGLET ALERT

wvgal_dana said...

EAGLE ALERT

wvgal_dana said...

EAGLE ALERT

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

And there is an eagle!

wvgal_dana said...

2 NOW Hi Sharon and Thelma

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

BOTH OF THEM!!

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

Hello Dana!

T-Bird said...

hi Dana

T-Bird said...

Wanda, are you still there?

T-Bird said...

gone

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

I was just getting ready to say the same thing Dana! HP for sure!

wvgal_dana said...

poof both gone

Sorry Wanda wasn't reading back on comments. Yes he did but over it now. Just needs to slowly build more strength up.

Wanda it is time for that "real new knee".

T-Bird said...

that was not nearly long enough

T-Bird said...

Wanda-you need a laptop so you can watch out for Belle and Liberty while your cooking dinner.

Costume Lady said...

Thelma, Gene brought home a Lap-top a few weeks ago, and the keys were so shiney, I couldn't see the letters. He took it back and we decided to wait til our vacation was over and be a little more selective as to what we want and need. Maybe some after Christmas sales will give us some good prices.

Red said...

Mits, Big Rig Steve is on the road again.

Mits said...

hot diggity, thanks, Red...I love watching him, it is interesting, and some of the views are great:)

Costume Lady said...

Where do I find Big Steve, Red? I'm tired of Inauguration.

Mema Jo said...

There is a short video clip of Luney on the Atlanta Panda Cub Updates...
Tuesday, January 20
Xi Lan may not be able to eat bamboo yet, but it sure does make a great toy to while away the day with.

T-Bird said...

Thanks Mema Jo-while I was on there I watched the birth again. What a precious celebration of life.

Mema Jo said...

That cam is so cool.... Big Rig Steve
I think I am in Lincoln Nebraska waiting to load but the cam has me rolling down the highway.......

http://www.bigrigtravels.com/

There you go Wanda - I goggled it and think it is what Mits & Red were talking about

Right now I am just waiting to see what the attire is for the Balls that they attend!

Mema Jo said...

Whoo Hoo! Pulling into a truck stop

T-Bird said...

I'm signing off. I hope you all have a good evening.

Mits said...

Big Rig Steve travels with his cat.I watched him go from NJ to Utah last week, and then he was on his way back and his transmission blew

magpie said...

Good Evening Everyone.
Just read all the exciting comments on the Blog.

Welcome Home, Deb ! ☺ ♥

Jo: Thanks for the information regarding Paula's decisions for her Mom and the memorial service.

Mits said...

Margy, I forgot to look for ISS tonight, think it was the night it was passing by twice:(

magpie said...

Interesting 9-1-1 call 6:30 this morning:

Lady calls, she and a group of 43 traveled up from New Orleans, on their church bus, a diesel. They were headed to Carlisle PA, first, then to the Inauguration (not sure I understand That Part) - bus breaks down at one of our Martinsburg exits! We called around to have a mechanic go check things out, and they were trying to find a more local hotel to settle in and change clothes and things. I think, they must have made it on their way, I hope. I didn't get the update....

All the way from New Orleans, on a Church Bus! ♥

Costume Lady said...

Thanks, Jo. What an interesting concept...a trucker inviting the public along on his travels.

Mits said...

BR Steve's cat is named TK (truck kat) and if you e-mail him he does answer you back....it takes him a few days, but he does get back to you....I never did get an answer from the e-mail address for the eagle cam on our site.....?

magpie said...

HI MITS
My schedule here said would come through around 5:29.. A month ago that would have been dark enough to see it! I scooted outdoors to check, saw Bright Venus, but think it was too bright yet to see the ISS -
A schedule I printed over the week-end had listed a fly by for Wednesday, but that is no longer posted.... :(

Mits said...

amazing story, Margy

Costume Lady said...

Margy, I heard that a lot of folks couldn't get rooms near DC and had to go to Carlisle...2 hours away. Hope they found something closer.

magpie said...

...Out the door to check on elderly neighbor lady. "See" you folks in a little while. xo ☺

magpie said...

...S P I T ... is coming soon. Tee Hee. ☺ I was watching that day, with T-Bone and Potato Chops!

Mits said...

Margy this is on my schedule for tomorrow night...ISS Wed Jan 21/06:09 PM 4 minutes , just missed the 7:17 fly by.
