Thanks Steve and Judie.

Deb, thank you for the pictures of this morning's visit.

Judie said...

Thank you for the Bandit update. So happy to know she's growing and flying.

Baby Panda

That's our eagle in the nest ... I think it's Belle, how about you?

Thanks to Deb for the shot.

Hello! I found you! Thanks for the pm thread Steve and for the heads-up Judie.
Judie had asked about Bandit (Delta eaglet that fell out of the nest)
Shirley found the forum and here is a link to the events.........

Link to forum concerning Bandit

Mema Jo said...

Yepper it works!

Don't forget to feed the hamster!

stronghunter said...

Hunter enjoys that little hamster.

movin said...

Su Lin is in one of her 'tear-m- up' periods .... check SD.

deb said...

Lunch time here. I had an exciting morning at work, submitted a case to the Fraud Dept and it was FRAUD! It is kind of exciting to catch some crooks.

stronghunter said...

Yea Deb. Go get 'em!

wvgal_dana said...

Thanks Steve for the new thread ( :

Thanks Judie for the call over.

I have enjoyed reading about how Bandit is doing thank you Shirley.

Jim great video on the little stick of butter. While I was there I enjoyed at SD the video of "little Frankie" the baby gorilla. He is going to be a beautiful silver back!!! Plus seeing the new addition again of the giraffe. So cute running around. Make sure you check those out while you are visiting the panda cub at SD. Thanks Jim. ( :

stronghunter said...

Raining here. Maybe a good soaking.

movin said...

mORNING, Dana, Strong, Mema Jo, Judie, Deb.

You're welcome, Dana. They do have a lot of interesting little clips on file at SD, don't they?

What you be doing for a living, Deb? I missed the link between the Ospreys and eagles and the "fraud."

Jim

deb said...

I keep hoping for another visit, but probably not one this time of day.

I hope you get a good soaking, Shirley.

deb said...

I work for ATT cell phone--lots of sneaky dealings with IPhones.

movin said...

Koo sure has a full crop tonight (there), but has anyone seen her bring the piscean fare in herself?

hedgie said...

Thanks guy and gals for update links!! SO MANY cams to check on that I forget to look at updates sometimes!! Good to hear that Bandit is thriving. If Bev is waiting for other eagles to appear in area, does that mean that Bandits' parents have deserted their nest territory?? I thought the nest was very close to the O.W.L.

movin said...

Very interesting, Deb. I hope you catch a million of them.

So you just do the conservation stuff on the weekends now?

Jim

hedgie said...

BTW....thanks for new thread Steve, and call-over, Judie!

Diego is a real cutie....aren't they all????

deb said...

I do it on my days off, Sunday and Tuesdays. I try to pop over if something exciting is going on after I get off, but that seems to wear me out to fast.

Something is by the Microphone on our cam.

deb said...

Back to work, hope the afternoon speeds by.

movin said...

Hedgie, I think the adult eagles often 'take off' for a month or more after their duties at the nest are finished.

I wish the experts in the area of Bandit's nest would put some pegs or a kind of platform in that nest tree to make it easier to build a nest there.

This is the second year in a row where the nest has fallen apart and/or the eaglets have fallen out of the thing.

Did you see the videos of last year? If it wasn't so dangerous, it actually looks comical when they go over the side... But I think some human addition on the big, slippery branch facing the camera would help immensely.

NatureNut said...

Hi Everyone!
So wonderful to see an Eagle in our nest. Thank you Deb!
Jim, I saw empty Finney nest yesterday & Koo flew in w/fish in her mouth!It was cleaned, so maybe she hooked up w/a parent who caught it.She has a terrible time trying to balance and secure fish for eating. She flaps all over the nest to get a good position.
I'll post a picture.

hedgie said...

Put a new pic on my blog.....just bragging a wee bit!!! Check it out!

Mits said...

back from the beach, not bad at all, but they are not letting you go in water past your knees...high surf advisory till 6:00p.m. Sunday night, some gorgeous cloud formations over the ocean and to the wet of us..may go down to the board walk

movin said...

Well, folks, I'm outta here for a while. Later.

Judie said...

Hey Deb, please come to my classes on exam days -- then you'll find our the sneaky stuff with iphones. Students download outlines, notes, hide the phone under shirt/jacket and look for answers during exam. Caught one last year. This year banning ALL electronic equipment during classes and, as always, during exams.

Jim, I think I remember that soon after Bandit fell someone remarked that the farmer who owns the property won't allow interference -let nature take its course philosophy. I also think I remember a comment that the parents are young and inexperienced so don't do a very good job of nestorations. If I'm wrong, someone please jump in and let me know.

Decided not to go to the party tonight. Just feel like staying home and being quiet. Besides, I think Frank needs to take it easy at least until they find out what's going on. I suspect blockage(s). The quadruple bypass was on the left side which is the only working part -- right side is dead. Good thing he's one of about 3% of humans with a left-dominant heart.

Okay, off to clean up (myself, that is).

Judie

wvgal_dana said...

Nice picture Lynn.

wvgal_dana said...

Lynn check your email

hedgie said...

Thanks, Dana. She's my beauty!! And he's my handsome!

hedgie said...

Judie, don't blame you for wanting to keep Frank quiet and relaxed as much as possible. Where will he have his cath done...at Inova Fx.??? If so, do me a favor, please.....while you are waiting...would you look for the honorary wall plaques (used to be on first floor off of lobby----???) and if you find them, take a picture of my daddy's: Wesley B. McCann
I would absolutely love it if you could! P=l=e=a=s=e????

Mema Jo said...

I think that is a good decision Judie.
You and Frank will be up front in my thoughts and prayers.
Great pic Lynn! Good looking relatives you have! lol

Going to get ready for mass and then out to dinner with Catonsville crew down in Frederick.

BBL

Judie said...

Ah, feel sooooo much better now that I'm cleaned up.

Lynn, nice picture - she's a beauty and he's handsome!

Frank will be at the VA hospital in DC because he's retired military. Did have two stents put in at FFax in 2001 because it was an emergency admission. FFax is about 5 blocks from us. HOWEVER, one day in the near future I'll stop at the hospital for a picture. If I'm not being too nosy on the blog, what was the honor for? If too nosy, ignore!

Jo, thanks for prayers. I'm feeling a little nervous this time around.

Going for a couple of aspirin and to put my feet up.

Judie

hedgie said...

Judie, my dad was on the Board (of Directors, I guess) way back when!
No rush! Whenever it is convenient for you, IF you feel up to it. Knew that you were real close...remember, I know where you live!!! LOL!

I sometimes have to bring my (other) SIL to the DC VA...Martinsburg sends him down there periodically to see the vascular guys. The VA gets a lot of bad press, but we've never had any trouble at DC.

hedgie said...

Thanks, Jo...you can tell I'm proud of them.

Judie said...

Lynn, Frank's quadruple was done at the VA in 1990 when they were trying to get certification for heart surgeries. Turned out the team was contracted from GWU and the Dr that did the bypass was the one who treated R.Reagan for the gunshot. Frank goes there almost exclusively and I know the VA in Martinsburg sends patients down about once each week. Maybe we can someday find time to meet up.

Ooops - storm coming and thunder abounds. Shutting down for a while.

Judie

stronghunter said...

Lovely picture, Lynn.

Judie, you know that our thoughts will be with you.

Just roused myself from as semi-nap. Just dozing slightly. It has been raining and thundering. I decided it wasn't bad enough to unplug the computer yet. We have had a nice amount of rain.

Kathryn is having a Tupperware party this evening. Seems that the Tupperware lady misspelled Kathryn's name and put the wrong RSVP phone number on the invitations, and then delivered them late to Kathryn, thinking she could hand=deliver them.

Kathryn didn't notice the botched phone number, so the invitations went out that way. The Tupperware lady then got ill and is sending a replacement.

Kathryn figures there might not be a big turnout, but then who knows?

hedgie said...

Sounds like a plan, Judie!
Funny story...the last time we were there, we were checking in when an ambulance crew arrived at the clinic w/ a patient from Mtbg....SIL knew both of the paramedics; then we ran into a guy he knew that works with his bro in Maintenance at our VA, who had been "loaned out" for the day. Like old homeweek for HIM in MY city! LOL!

hedgie said...

Geesh, Shirley, don't think I'd book through her again if I was Kathryn!!

After a couple of those 67 drop precips, it is finally raining nice and gently here. Haven't heard any thunder, and no wind.

stronghunter said...

Kathryn said that she is not sorry that a different lady will be coming to her house. Doesn't sound like the first one has what it takes to be successful as a
Tupperware lady.

stronghunter said...

Yeah, we are getting a good soaker. It would be good if it does thin all night.

stronghunter said...

. . . does this all night.

stronghunter said...

Judie, I worry about cell phones and electronic devices with my students, too. I have had suspicions about the devices at times.

My textbook company provides different versions of the objective tests, but at least once I found a cheat sheet with the answers for all the different versions on it. I have thought this one got into the drawer where I kept the answer sheets. That wasn't electronic, of course. It was on paper.

The software for the test allows you to write in your own questions, then put in how many versions you want. It will scramble multiple choices or question order, or both. It also provides questions if you want to use them. If you use a Scantron, you have to make sure the student writes in the correct test ID. However, I once caught a kid who put in the wrong ID on his Scantron. I am sure he wanted to copy the kid next to him with the diffent version.

Sometimes I make students write on the test paper and do not tell them I have deleted the mark that tells what version it is, so only I know who has what version and how many there are.

If they worked as hard to study as they do to cheat, they would not need to cheat.

stronghunter said...

We need to bring in Detective Deb to catch those scoundrels.

stronghunter said...

Sounds like it is raining at the nest.

NatureNut said...

Found another and different capture of Koo with a Whole fish!!!☺ ♥
Posted w/other. Maybe we'll have fish for dinner!I've 2 kinds of frozen filets! That's if the power stays on. Went off again awhile ago when there was only thunder!!!Had thunder at 4 AM that woke us. Raining now--wonder if it's Bill!?

stronghunter said...

Would like to think Koo caught that fish, Loretta. Nice bunny pictures, to.

stronghunter said...

. . . too.

NatureNut said...

Lynn, saw your new pic---Lovely Family!!
Judie, prayers for hubby's procedure.

Think I'm gonna shut down. BBL

stronghunter said...

Off to party. BBL.

magpie said...

Lovely pictures from Loretta, Lynn and Deb !

I'm running late...got held over for two hours this morning, that's how I was able to see our Lovely Eagle this morning...don't have sound so didn't hear email "ding" but managed to catch a very brief just before take-off view.

Judie thinking of you and Frank and praying for all good outcomes. Glad he is in that 3%!

TTFN - time for another 12 - on a Saturday night, probably will be full of a lot of crooks! And people that cannot behave themselves :(

xoxo Best Wishes for a Happy Evening...

☺ ♥

Lolly said...

Hi all! Sitting here nice and clean and hair still wet from shampooing. LOL Mowed, clipped, edged, blew, dead headed, trimmed,etc. Really made a day of it and now I am going to sit for the rest of the day!!!

Lynn, love the picture of Christie and Shannon. I think there are many of us on here with some good looking kids, as well as super grandkids!!!

Norma, SIL went to the Cowboy game last night. He was really impressed with the new stadium, especially the HUGE screen. Said you could see the hole in a cheerleaders naval, when she had removed her belly button ring, LOL
Can not believe he got to go, he isn't even a Cowboy fan. He is from Long Island and is a Giant Fan. He has even brain washed my two precious grandsons. Sad, very sad. LOL

hedgie said...

Thanks for compliments for my kids.
LOL...Lolly, you could have been talking about YOU or the yard....which was it????

hedgie said...

Just put a sausage and cranberry quiche in the oven...new recipe....sure hope it's as good as it sounds.

hedgie said...

Loretta, if Koo caught that fish herself, then I feel much more hopeful for her future. Thanks! I will send link to Suzanne.

Lolly said...

LOL Well, I guess I could have used it all, but it was the yard!

Lolly said...

Let us know how the quiche turns out!

We are having steak and corn on the cob tonight.

Lolly said...

Forgot to say thanks, Deb, for the pictures. Nice to sknow we are still having nest visits. Would love to see Hidey. Wonder if he has moved on.

hedgie said...

Teasing you, dear Lolly....knew you didn't need all that grooming!!!

Lolly said...

Oh, no, Lynn! I could use some trimming and dead heading. LOL

hedgie said...

Just had three deer on the corn---looked the size of 2 yr. olds; one 4-pt. buck and two does. Their coloring is already starting to change to a fall hue of taupish brown rather than the tawny colors.

Quiche was tasty, but it called for a puff pastry crust, which only puffed on the corners and was tough underneath. Think a pie crust would be much better. If anyone wants the recipe, holler and I'll send it!

Lolly said...

Go ahead and send it Lynn. We eat quiche occasionally.

Central Texas has a lot of deer and around lakes near us there are deer, but have never seen deer here. Guess that is a good thing what with my gardening.

I had two uncles who lived on Lake Buchanan. They lived next door to each other and put a fence around their property to try to keep deer out. One time they found a deer who had tried to jump the fence and did not make it. Sad!

hedgie said...

Skins up 3-0 (sorry, Dana). LET'S GO REDSKINS!!!! Roethslesberger is not playing.

deb said...

I have our nest up and heard a landing ?? maybe by the mic. Come on down, whoever is making that noise!

ceil said...

Evening everyone. Lynn I agree beautiful daughter and handsome sil
Deb thanks for catching adult in our nest.
Loretta thanks for the pictures of Koo. She does compensate. Animals do adjust. Just hope it is enough.
Judi we will be praying for Frank this week. Hope all goes well.
I must say that I do not reply to all messages. I forget. Sometimes I write it down but I do try to keep up but don't always.

deb said...

Groceries bought and put away, dogs fed, waiting for my dinner to be ready.

Lynn, great family picture. Judy, prayers for Franks procedure. Loretta, it is nice to see Koo with fish.

ceil said...

PS I feed the hamster and the frog.

deb said...

Hi, Ceil. Oops, I spelled Judie wrong,

ceil said...

Hi Deb. Sure she won't mind.

Judie said...

WOW!!! Since we decided to stay home I ended up making bacon pasta. Oh so really, really yummy. Course, won't mention this to Frank's cardiologist -- what he doesn't know won't hurt him! I will, of course, deny any knowledge of bacon pasta and, if the food nazi's show up on the blog, please plead ignorance on our behalf!

Shirley, we do need to get Deb to help capture the little miscreants. Sounds as if I use the same or similar software. I usually create two or three versions with each version having different questions printed on different color paper. Helps cut down on looking at the answers next to you but still doesn't solve the electronic cheating.

Have a quiet shift Margie and hope all stay safe.

Definitely got to get together Lynn.

Hmmm - I got trimmed and dead headed last Wed. Should have waited for you others.

Remember Tinkerbell? If we believe, Koo will be able to fish and migrate. Let's keep our fingers crossed and keep saying "we believe"

Hear what sounds like tap dancing on the microphone. Maybe someone will be coming down into the nest tonight.

Going to watch some t.v. now. Back for a visit later.

Judie

Judie said...

No, I don't mind the spelling/misspelling as long as you call me a momster friend.

Judie

deb said...

You would think there would be some way to detect if an electronic device is being used, but the cost is probably prohibitive for schools. Too bad you can't have eyes on every kid at once!

deb said...

Most definitely!

Lolly said...

LOL Yes, Judie, after you said you were going to fix Bacon Pasta, you talked about Frank. I thought, "oh dear!" I won't tell! Glad you liked it.

hedgie said...

Thanks for more compliments for my baby and SIL!!!

Deb, sure would like to hear your fraud story!!! Way to go!!

Costume Lady said...

I forgot to tell you all that my Grandson is visiting until school starts next week, so, in addition to being busy with the shop, Dustin is on the computer when I have a moment to check in. He is in the shower right now, so the mouse is mine for a moment or two:)

NatureNut said...

Evening Everyone! We did have fish for dinner!!Flounder filets w/butter, lemon, seasonings, baked potaties, & asparagus. For once, no frozen dinners. LOL
Re: Koo--one lady on the forum checks the leg(s) of the incoming O to see if stained or wet from fishing.There were pics after Koo landed & she thinks her leg feathers were stained. Of course, we won't know-can only see the nest. But at least a parent didn't bring fish there.
Lynn, did you say Redskins????Didn't know they were on!Fubby watching car race at Bristol. I'll have to jump downstairs!

NatureNut said...

Wow, 4 deer and some racoons at PA/

hedgie said...

Yep, Lowreeda....I'm flipping back and forth!
Koo with wet leg sounds KOOL!!

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

Good evening to all my eagle budlets from Bedford, Virginia. Got here today. Staying until Friday this time but moving here within the next month!

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

So how is everybody this evening?

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

WASHINGTON REDSKINS 17
PITTSBURGH STEELERS 13

NatureNut said...

Touchdown Skins!!! Ahead by 4!
Pittsburgh IS my 2nd favorite team,--relatives there.

hedgie said...

No Koo in nest at the moment. Sib there looking around.

PA Nana said...

The Steelers are playing like high schoolers. So many mistakes. Now it's 17-13 Redskins. Guess my youngest will give me a ha ha. Some of these players won't make the roster this year. 12:56 to go.
They still have time. Dana are you cheering them on?

Forgive me, hi everyone and blessings around. I get so caught up with these games I forget my manners. Must be quiet, hubby went to bed. shhhhhh

Thanks for the pics of Koo. So glad he's doing so well.

...later

Lolly said...

I keep hearing something by the mike at the nest. Someone is there for the night, I guess.

Costume Lady said...

Sharon, did I read that right? You are moving to Bedford?

Costume Lady said...

STEELERS are my second favorite team, also. I grew up near Pittsburgh. Redskins will always be my Fav. even if they to STINK sometimes!:)

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

Yes Wanda you read that right!

And . . .

GO REDSKINS!! THEY BEAT PITTSBURGH 17 - 13!!!!

hedgie said...

HAIL TO THE REDSKINS, HAIL VICTORY. BRAVES ON THE WARPATH, FIGHT FOR OL' DC! 17-13!

hedgie said...

And Jr. is in 4th in the race....13 laps to go.........

stronghunter said...

Stopped by to say goodnight.

See your tomorrow.

Mema Jo said...

I'm sure Sgt Patrick in Germany will be cheering with the game news when he awakens to start his day!

Wanda when Sharon moves to Bedford we can take a road trip & visit. Should be something in Bedford or nearby that would interest us!

stronghunter said...

See you tomorrow.

Mema Jo said...

Koo was in the nest
Took Off Sometime Ago
Still up and about in the sky

hedgie said...

SHARON!!!!!!!!!!! Fill us in, girlfriend!!! What's up??????

Mema Jo said...

Koo just returned
No food brought back
Doing really well with those one-legged landings

NatureNut said...

GO SKINS!!!

hedgie said...

Breaking up the deadly side-by-side- duo??? What about your house??? What does Sissy and Mattie say?? Boy, I'm nosy, aren't I??

Mema Jo said...

Good Night Shirley
Did you blow most of your 1st pay on Tupperware! I need to redo some of mine. Prices sure have gone up like everything else!

Mema Jo said...

ROFLMBO

Hedgie Did anyone ever tell you that you ask too many questions? lol

I just love how Hedgie finds out everything for all of us! Wouldn't want to do without her! ♥

hedgie said...

G'night, Shirley!

Costume Lady said...

One road trip to Bedford coming up! Sharon, find something interesting for us to visit:)

hedgie said...

Sorry, Jo. Just so shocked that I got carried away! Doesn't look like any answers forthcoming.....

Mema Jo said...

I'm sure that Sissy & Mattie are sad
about the move :<(

hedgie said...

Wanda, the National D-Day Memorial is there....and Eric Estrada (remember Ponch on CHiPs) is a sheriff's deputy in the county!!

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

ANSWERS -

I am going to move here in the next month or so for at least through the winter. Mattie and Sissy are not very happy about it but I have issues with my house that can't be fixed just overnight so I am going to stay here awhile. I will be bringing my 4 dogs with me.

There is an eagle's nest between here and Charlottesville. We could go exploring for that. There is also National D-Day Memorial here. I will be digging for more to get you all here!

Costume Lady said...

Nite, Shirley.
Has Helen been on today?

SHARON...are you in Love???
Come on, tell us what gives!

Mema Jo said...

WOW! Look at all the wineries in Bedford area:
* Fincastle Vineyard & Winery, Botetourt County, VA
Hickory Hill Vineyards, Bedford County, VA
Peaks of Otter Winery, VA
Virginia Mountain Vineyards, Botetourt County, VA
Now if I can just find where's the CHEESE

floralgirl said...

ROAD TRIP!!!!!!

Lolly said...

Can I come too?

Costume Lady said...

Lynn, are you serious about Eric Estrada being a Deputy?

Costume Lady said...

Jo, we can bring the cheese and crackers!

Lolly said...

Hey, Wanda! Did you see where I commented that my seeds arrived? I am so excited! Thank you!!!!

hedgie said...

Stoopid brat Kyle Busch won the race. Jr. dropped back to 9th. Boo.

Off to tub I go. See you nice people tomorrow. God bless each and every one!

Costume Lady said...

Yes, you can come Lolly, but you have to bring BACON PASTA;)

Lolly said...

I can do that!!!!

Costume Lady said...

Yes I did, Lolly. I'm excited too. We'll have to exchange photos when they bloom:)

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

No, Wanda, not in love!

Lolly said...

Jack is sleeping in his chair. I am about to pass out. Hard work in the yard, good meal and wine....it will get you every time!

Costume Lady said...

I guess Sharon's job is in her laptop...she can take it with her.

Lolly said...

Will do, Wanda!

hedgie said...

Back....okay, Shar----so you will be staying with Thelma? Does your house need repairs? We could come to Bluefield with our hammers and saws, etc. Wouldn't that be a hoot?? Sure hope that you can get everything straightened out. I have a feeling that you are truly a hometown spirit. Bet Buddy will be happy to have company!!! And you can still do your job wherever you are. Wishing you all the best.

Costume Lady said...

SHARON..:(:(:(

hedgie said...

Yes, Wanda (oops, I'm pulling a Margy and Ceil!). I talked about that last week when he was here for Bike Night....did you miss it? Thelma didn't know it, either!!!! It was in the article in the Journal.

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

It's all good, Wanda. That will happen in God's time, not mine! :)

Costume Lady said...

Glad you look at it like that. Tis so true:)

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

I just read that too Lynn. I guess I am going to have to BOLO for Erik now.

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

Ok, going to bed now. Good night and sweet eagle dreams, my friends of fine feathers and furs. See ya tomorrow.

floralgirl said...

Nite Sharon:)

Lolly said...

Good attitude, Sharon!

Lolly said...

Nite all! Time for me to hit the sack. Earlier than usual, but I am falling asleep.

Sweet dreams!

It is my turn to leave the key under the mat and the nite lite on! LOL

Costume Lady said...

Lolly, don't tell where the key is, someone might here! We should all get our own keys:)

GOOD NIGHT EVERYONE
SWEET DREAMS
PRAYERS FOR ALL

Costume Lady said...

Someone might 'HEAR'...

hedgie said...

I'm really going this time. Night light is on. Peace.

Mema Jo said...

If you Momsters lock me in here you're
in big trouble........

Wet noodles and all !!
Remember I have a CANE

Judie said...

Quick visit.

Yep, Deb, it's hard with a lecture hall and 100 at a time.

Lolly, I knew I could count on you.

The cheese is at MY house -- y'all come! Bacon pasta? What about the G&T? Believe I remember Estrada being in law enforcement somewhere AND he has been in trouble regarding domestic violence.

Very suspicious when a person moves away from nearest and dearest and takes along all four dogs for the winter. If I were a detective, I would ask what kind of house issues? Ah ha, house too far away from someone who likes me AND my four dogs.

Hope Shirley has room in her house for all the tupperware she bought tonight.

GO SKINS!

Okay, I fell asleep for about two hours, woke up, and stopped by to say goodnight. Turning my light off now but leaving the night light on.

Judie

Mema Jo said...

Good Night Judie - I am right behind you as I leave the blog. I did not turn out the night light

Good Night Everyone!
Prayers being said for all our needs
Pleasant dreams & restful sleep...
(((hugs))) ♥

deb said...

I an off to bed, too. Sharon, a new chapter for your book, it will be exciting to be in a different place for the winter!

I don't know how much I can reveal about the fraud on a public forum, best not get in trouble! I'll just say they weren't very smart about it if I could spot it that quickly.

deb said...

I am off to bed, night everyone.

movin said...

**Good NighT**

**My FriendS**


Have a wonderful Sunday.


C(°ٿ°)D


Jim

NatureNut said...

Good Night Everyone!
So Sharon is throwing us a sort of mystery ☺ Best Wishes for your plans. I'll join the caravan to visit!
And Deb is really a detective!
Pleasant Feather Dreams ;>)

(The light is still on 'cuz we didn't lose power!!)

Judie said...

Jo, so happy to see you didn't get locked in. Couldn't sleep - kept thinking about you and that CANE! Whew! Now maybe I can get to sleep.

Goodnight, everyone

magpie said...

I put about 10 pics on the Momsters album...
I've been up all night, and really have to hit the sack, but feel better about it now that there are people watching the nest....
You all enjoy the day...what a great way to start it isn't it?

xoxo

MORNIN' MARGY--WANDA & SHIRLEY!---I must find out about SHARON'S mystery----?

normabyrd said...

MORNIN' BEAUTIFUL CEIL!--Guess MITS survived the storm---

ceil said...

Both gone. That was great. Now just wish Hidey would come in. I don't want much.
Norma. Mits said beach was fine. Surf very rough.

ceil said...

BBL going to get tea.

stronghunter said...

Grabbed a few pictures. They were here for about an hour.

Very peaceful without Hidey. Wonder if Hidey is still around; mabye they were saying,"Just you and me, now, dear."

Goodmorning, everyone. A Beautiful Sunday morning. Hope you all enjoy today. This message is mainly for Costume Lady. Heres instructions to increase your Virtual Memory on your PC.

Wanda, Virtual memory is not real memory. You can increase it yourself. Follow these directions.
1. click on "Start" on your task bar.
2. Find "Control Panel" and click on it.
3. Find "System" and double click it.
5. At the top click on "Advanced" tab.
6. under "Performance" click on "Settings".
7. At the top click on the "Advanced" tab.
8. Find "Virtual Memory" near the bottom and click on "Change".
9. At about the middle of the window select "Custom Size" and in the block labeled Initial Size, enter 1536 and in Maximum size enter 3072. Then click "set", "OK" and Ok on all the remaining windows.
Thats all there is to it. See!
We'll make a technician out of you yet


I would recommend copying this and pasting to something you can print before you start.
Good Luck.

Costume Lady said...

THANKS, RED...You are an angel:) Will let you know if it works!

stronghunter said...

Judie, I didn't buy too much Tupperware! I really have what I need in the kitchen. I should be getting rid of some things instead of adding things. The party was very small. Just 3 guests, counting me.

One lady came in late because she was involved in a minor car accident on the way. When she called the police, he said he wasn't waiting around and took off. Yes, she got the plate #! But the cop said he couldn't do much unless he files an insurance claim because he is from out of state. That does not seem right.

She had just gotten the car yesterday--not new, though. She did not seem too worried. Said there were just a few scratches. I would have been much more upset!

stronghunter said...

Pronoun reference problem there--should be "When she called the police, the other driver said . . . " Less confusing.

deb said...

Good morning, I see I missed our beautiful couple. My live feed isn't working today.

stronghunter said...

Suzi called last night. She is home from Hawaii. Had some problems with flight connections because original flight left 2 hrs. late.

Going to work on some nestorations around here--after another cup of coffee. BBL.




Waiting for more news from Sharon. Chapter 2 in "The Adventures of Sharon."


Oh no, has the camera stopped working????

normabyrd said...

normabyrd said...

HEDGIE!---Some where on this BLOG!----I sent you CONGRATS! -- the REDSKINS WON!----I DIDN'T WANT THOSE PA FOLKS TO WIN!!---I did watch the game!!

Mits said...

Good Sunday morning everyone....

normabyrd said...

BLUEFIELD SHARON is COOL!---She would never do anything foolish!!-----KEEP THE FAITH SHARON!

normabyrd said...

GOOD MORNIN' MITS!---

Mits said...

morning, Norma....my live feed to the eagles is not working this a.m.

Mits said...

BWO....UPDATE

We may have lost our mother osprey to migration. Not many sightings of the adults, and this shot from yesterday appears to show our father osprey with our youngster.

normabyrd said...

JUDIE---Keeping you and FRANK in my thoughts & prayers----

normabyrd said...

MITS---So sorry---but I just noticed my live feed is down now!!
CURSES!

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

Good morning eagle budlets. Beautiful morning in Bedford, sun is shining.

I can only get the green barber pole on our cam. Got to figure out what is up with that!

normabyrd said...

MORNIN' SHARON---That's all I am getting now---when we checked on this am---we opened to see BELLE & LIB were in the nest & moving furniture, etc---

stronghunter said...

I am getting nothing on the cam, either, Sharon. I have been looking at the still cam.

stronghunter said...

I posted a few pictues of this morning's visit by Lib and Belle as well as one of the visiting pup, West. I see that I have two of the same pictue on there. Oh well. Enjoy it twice.

normabyrd said...

SHARON---Will you be moving out of the WILD & WONDERFUL STATE OF WV--when you move to Bedford???

Mema Jo said...

Good Morning! Great pics on Magpie's blog - Wish I could get my feet on the floor much earlier then I do!

Headed to Market.. Will touch base later. Sorry to see the live feed not working.

BBL

stronghunter said...

My hubby (now ex)and I visited Bedford on our honeymoon in 1967. It is in Virginia.

stronghunter said...

Grateful that it was working earlier though, Jo. It went out right after Lib and Belle left.

stronghunter said...

Have a good trip to Market, Jo.

normabyrd said...

DISCUSSION--TV now!----What would we do if they---if they stopped publishing newspapers!!!

i would curl up & die---

normabyrd said...

MORNIN' & BYE JO!---I just missed you!

stronghunter said...

Surely we still need newspapers. Not everybody has Internet, and what would happen if it went down for an extended time? I am not ready to give up newspapers.

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

Early bird gets the worm -- but. . . the second mouse gets the cheese! :)

Anyway, I hate I missed Lib and Belle this morning.

The real story is that my house needs more repairs than I can afford at this time so I am going to stay in Bedford for the winter and then start working on my house in the spring. Need a change for a little while anyway and Thelma has been gracious enough to let me come here. I think it is going to be good for me but I am sure I will be getting homesick! :(

Normabyrd, I might not physically be in WV for a little while BUT I DO BLEED BLUE AND GOLD!!!!!!!

Lolly said...

Good morning all! Just have a sec to get on, have to eat a bite and get ready for church.

Neat that Lib and Belle were together at the nest and Belle doing nestorations. How cool is that? Certainly wish our babies had transmitters so that we could track them. However, if something happened then we would all be sad. As it is they are enjoying life!!!

normabyrd said...

I agree SHIRLEY!---Are you taking your turn walking WEST??---daughter LOVED what you said about---sending JR to me so he could bounce off the walls with me in the mornings!!

hedgie said...

Morning, Momsters and Dadsters.
Just saw a great shot of Old Faithful on the news---lovely as always.
Wow, Margy and Shirley---thanks for great nest visit shots! Our beautiful pair...waht a great way to start the day!Cute doggie, too, Shirl.

Norma, I'm with you----wouldn't want to face the day w/o my newspapers!

Red, getting ready to increase my virtual memory! Wondered what that was all about whenever it popped up---doesn't do it on my PC, just on netbook! You are So smart!
