Lib is back with another stick. Wow, they are really getting busy. If they get the nest finished before January, wonder if they will start nesting early?
I talked myself right through a split. Belle is watching Lib place a stick near his Launch Pad. I guess he needs reinforcements so she can't knock him out of the nest so easily;)
Well, that was interesting, looks like they are at separate corners now. Guess she just couldn't hold her tongue about where he put that stick. Morning all:)
Well MEGAN---What's happening?---The sun is shining -- skies are blue & the trees are such beautiful autumn colors---Would be a perfect day for a hike in the woods!!----Our temp is 46°---
MARGY!---If you are home--I have some news for you about the delicacy you prepared yesterday!!
MORNIN' T-BIRD!---Wasn't that WVU--UCONN day about the best game I have seen in a long time?--I was so hoarse I could hardly talk!!---COACH STEW & our team were so kind to the UCONN team---am betting on the VICKINGS & DALLAS today!!
Normabyrd-we only got to see the end of the game here in Bedford. I thought WVU handled the UConn tragedy with class and still won the game!!! Hats off!
Morning all, greetings from western PA where it is cold and sunny.
I've been lurking for weeks but the "tongue" talk brought me out. When I lived in TX it was readily available in the supermarket. As I recall you had to cook it for hours. It is very good once you get past the image in your mind. I've never seen it in the stores here.
Happy that I have seen the royal couple several times lately.
T-BIRD!---Prior to the game---The folks on the WVU side stood when UCONN team came out on the field---The teams were huging each other & they had the 'empty #6 shirt' hanging there--so sad---Saw it mentioned on a news-cast last night!!
WELCOME GRANNYBLT!!---We have MISSED you!---I goggled last night & discovered COW TONGUE is quite a DELICACY & mentioned that we all have probably eaten it & not known we had!--- Both COW--LAMB TONGUE & BRAINS, --all so BULL BALLS, etc--& the list goes on!! ho!
MORNIN' MEMA JO!---I envy you & your family!---You are truly blessed to have such a close loving family---that live near you!---& sounds as if they are all good cooks--wishing you a good day!!
MORNIN' SHIRLEY!---Good news-!!-you are feeling better today!---This is going to be a glorious day!--I am a happy camper too!!--after calling paper person--found paper under the front wheel of my car!---Now I can start my day! ho!
I remember when we had problems with our paper disappearing. Someone must have been taking it. We finally asked the paper lady to toss it behind the shrubbery and that worked.
he is fine and dandy....I guess, have not seen him since last week, they live an hour away, and Annie's sisters from out of town are visiting this weekend.
Shirley, I used to be HOT all the time. When I started my diet I started drinking a LOT of water. Now I am not hot all the time. I think my body was telling me I needed water and just did not realize it. Water is so good for you. I tied my water with meals, that helped to remember to drink. I drank before I ate, while I ate and after I ate. lol Hey, I lost weight and I am feeling so much better.
Good Eagle morning! What a good way to start the day....sunshine, cam and eagles at home!! Cool! Getting ready to spend the afternoon/evening away....youngest's bell choir is performing with a barbershop quartet at church this afternoon---strange-sounding combination, but should be fun. Apparently mostly secular, as pastor is making them perform in fellowship hall rather than sanctuary! Then we are going out for dinner---don't know where yet. Thelma, Skins play tomorrow night. Just love a NATIONAL audience for debacles, huh??
Happy sunshiny beautiful Autumn morning to everyone.
Thank you to those who send good wishes that seem to have worked. I am feeling better after 10 hours of sleep. Also, pain has subsided for now -- just too much walking around the past three days so legs were having heart attacks.
Shirley, pictures are really nice and I do like the spirit links and the colorful clothes. Enjoy the lovely new furniture.
Wanda, glad Gee Gee is feeling better. Also think Jack looks terrific as Helen imposter.
Congrats to Joseph and Jacob.
Megan, happy your daughter is on the mend and recovery will be extra quick.
Oh, about the pilots? If they weren't asleep and were not arguing, maybe they were ummm -- otherwise occupied? Now THAT would make a great news story!
Lynn, enjoy the afternoon and evening. Bell choir and barbershop sound interesting if they perform together.
Glad Ben is doing well with lots of loving caregivers.
I WILL NOT discuss the "T" thing. So gross!
Off to think about stuff for next week's classes. Everyone enjoy the day, the games, the wins, but not the losses.
Good morning Judie! I am so happy that you are feeling better. Relax in a recliner as you think about what you are going to do this week. Rest those legs.
One of our administrators once said that as high school teachers, we get to be teenagers forever. It is a fun thought. I skipped dressing in the spirit week costumes except for Friday--blue and gold day, but lots of teachers dressed up with the kids.
I managed to get five pictures up from the morning visit on the Momsters album...I jumped on late and about fell over to see the Two Royal Birds at the Palace, and to read Wanda and Norma's and Megan's running commentary and nice to see that others saw them too
MARGY--I didn't mean to bring up the subject again---but I just googled & WOW!---Did you read the blog from GRANNYBLT?---EAGLES were on a long time this am!---JUST TOO WONDERFUL!---Kept clicking back on to see if they were still there! ho!
I think I just demonstrated that we play in high school, too! I have done some work with the little ones, too. Four-year-old Bible School kids are cool.
I had them all hold onto a rope to line up and go places. They were known as the "rope gang."
Kathryn was my helper on this particular session. One day I told them to put their chairs under the table before we left the room, and I heard Kathryn saying, "No, no, not like that." You guessed it. Two little girls were carefully placing their chairs under the table.
We were told that Kathryn and I worked together beautifully, that we communicated without even speaking to one another. Maybe it is because Kathryn helped me raise twins. She anticipated what needed to be done without my saying a word.
Margy, re: your comment at 10:50....one time the pastor asked attendants not to applaud the bell and choral choirs because "we are in a house of worship"....duh! Make noise unto the Lord, all ye lands....I think the Lord loves the celebration in music and doesn't mind at all if we applaud!! Think Pastor John, who is a young man, is carrying our Presbyterian staidness a bit too far!!
Okay, gotta change clothes, brush out hair, put Cinny in crate and head out. See all y'all this evening sometime. Enjoy the sunny, cool, breezy day of rest!
Closing song from church today, "Let There Be Peace on Earth." It was a nice send-off. Yeah, even squealing kids are a song to the Lord...we have one particular Mass in Charles Town which is pretty much known to be the Children's Mass...so expect noise!
Shirley, great day for taking pictures I would say! I took some pictures of some Yellow trees this morning, and one of an apple orchard.
Enjoy the day, all... I'm hanging framed pictues on the walls here, and there, including some of my grandson's "Artwork" from school. ☺
Home again! While driving a beautiful Bald Headed Eagle flew in front of us. Really was unexpected - I wasn't driving so I got a very good view of him.
I have eaten lunch and I will be putting my feet up for a short time and then hopefully get some of those sunshine rays.
9 for me so far... I have to leave soon...hate to do it when the birds are there... but I have a date with a fishing pole and some artificial lures...need to wet some lines !
Got an email from Larry Battson after sending a link to the Open House photos: "As a whole these may be the best we have ever had taken of our family doing a program". That was nice of him to say.
I have to focus on getting pics and loading them onto the site for my class tonight. I have been able to do it okay so far, but have to demonstrate that I can use different functions of my camera and put them on the site.
I would really like to know how these classes are graded. It sounds funny, but I do not know. I think they are graded classes, but all that shows in the gradebook so far is checkmarks. I have to assume if I'm getting checkmarks, I am okay.
Megan - I would have thought the hummingbirds would have migrated by now. I love watching them.
So far Win 7 is good but upgrading is not for the feint of heart. If you're upgrading from XP you have to start from scratch. Back up all your data to another drive, reinstall all your software and copy your data back. I was already on Vista so the upgrade was easier. I had to jump though hoops to get my mail back though. No more Outlook Express or Windows Mail. It's Windows Live Mail now. It's OK but different.
nice compliment from them Bob, they were wonderful pictures, sooo clear.....guess I will stick with XP, till I get a new computer, my desktop at BEACH is 8 yrs old, and my laptop here is 5 yrs old.
I havent' seen any hummers for about two weeks, heard this one yesterday, but never saw it, today I got a good look at it, sat right beside me, it's a female, and pretty good size. I have lots of salvias still blooming and I put out a feeder this morning.
Evening all. Nice looking bird in the nest. Margy you are not going to live down that tongue menu. Ask Bob. Now he has the feather incident. Pics are great. Jubby got some good ones and one of these days you might get to see them.
Today the skies were beautiful... The swirling cloud formations this afternoon were gorgeous. This evening as the sliver of the moon appeared against the pink sunset was breath taking. Hope everyone got a chance to view it.
Wow, see those Eagles were in good and Many hands...☺
Oh I love the cowbird comments! Mits, I thought about that too...too late for Osprey...did not ever see one this year as in years past , but wait for next comment.....
Botanist that lives in nice big house with creek view, and 40-acres of creek frontage, reports that:
Conservation Officer saw a Bald Eagle at a spot very near to the bridge, where I go bird-watching. I will call that DNR officer Monday and get details !!!
Mits, my computer is about 8 years old now too...son-in-law's actually, he has been wonderful to let me have it...and it actually performs quite well... Outlook Express is good on email for me, and Windows XP and IE 7 -
The DNR officer who saw the bald eagle is the one I think that lives not too far from Swinging Bridge, I have seen him several times when I have been out there.
I was very successful at fishing, three sticks and several leaves, and some photographs
Shirley one big helpful hint about saving pictures, is to name them easily, I usually use the date to start with, if I am taking several I just try to go #1 #2 and so forth, on the same day I will do am, pm, etc. I will send you an email about other things....
Jo I saw (and see) that beautiful Moon, it is trying to catch Jupiter and I think tomorrow night, It Will ! Soon we will be asking Megan for the next Full Moon Name
Margy - I looked all through the Momster album for Anne's pics until I remembered her personal blog! Anne Marie took the pic of Sandra - I had transferred from FB some of Anne's pics to the Momsters'.
Suggestion: when taking more then 1 pic of the eagles while in the nest - the numerical date (10-25) and the time (62513) are very helpful in their title in order to arrange them in sequence.
Judie Well, you can see some of what you missed on the Momsters Albums....can you get to them? Oh, coconut shrimp ! Wish I had known, I know how to get to Annandale ☺ Good Night, and very best wishes for a good week coming up xo ☺
This was a really stellar day here, starting out with the Eagle Visit, then Mass with Father Pooch, short visit from Wanda and Gene, all the blogging with Eagle Pals, and I put nine new things on the walls, not sure I am in the right house !
New old things. By the way, goal for this week, is to master One-Liners. Plus I go back to work in the morning, so things will be quite quiet from THIS ROOST
Tongue in cheeck? Well, I've heard of people eating animal cheeks! Oh good grief I am really feeling nauseous with all the talk of animal body parts! Just let me know when you'll arrive and headless coconut shrimp it will be!
Good night for real, this time. Light's off -- night light is on.
you had to say it, didn't you Ceil....Hi Margy....I have several boxes in my computer room with Christmas presents already for the kids and son and d-i-l...going to get Christmas bags and put them together, get some gift certificates and I am done, hopefully...
I'm home! L-o-n-g afternoon/evening! Haven't read all of blog yet---got stopped on Margy's first post when I left.....same song ended todays' concert, Margy. Love it!!
Wow, 389 comments. Bet I don't catch up on this blog. Will somebody let me know all the highlights? Just kidding! Really enjoyed spending the weekend with my sister-in-law Carmen! We were just pretty lazy and visited all weekend!
Bob, very nice compliment from the Battson's indeed, but we all know that you are the BEST photog!!! Mits, Judie, etc.......the tongue thing is never gonna die!!! Margy, if yoy are taking sandwiches to work, just tell folks it's roast beef---no lie, right??? So cool about the eagle at Swinging Bridge!!! Can't wait to hear more! Shirley, you were sure right earlier about shared experiences...some that seemed bad turned out to be so good!! we are women, hear us roar!!!
OMG...........Margy....you made my heart do a flip-flop when you said you hoped that Deb had tomorrow off.......and when I went to look at my notes, I found that my brain did the same a week ago when I sent a birthday card to SUZ instead of Deb...........duh! What a dummy I am. And Suz is probably wondering "what the heck???"
Good evening and blessings around. Until I read back on the blog I'm late in getting on then most have already said good night. Someday I'll be caught up!
Sunday is football and both of my teams won today. Yipee!!
I know it's basically a closed topic but I want to add my 2 cents re beef tongue. When I was in high school (a long time ago) I had an after school/summer job at a super market as a check out girl. People would buy those "things" and expect me to ring them up and slide it down to the bagger. I figured out a way to avoid that. I would ring it up without touching and use a can or whatever to slide it down to the bagger. My mother, as a youngster, worked in a butcher shop and the things she told us would make some vegetarians.
Anyway, blessings to those still here and hope all have a restful night.
P.S Glad the still cam is back up but I still missed the eagles today. :-(
Hi Pa Nana - DIANN - good to see you on here, and I believe the butcher shop stories...i fact, I WAS a vegatarian for awhile many years ago.... More later... xo wanted to catch Diann before she left
Couple highlights Sharon: Shepherd played WV State Saturday...homecoming, beat them soundly...is that not Andrew's school? Still CAM went down AND came back up on the week-end...pretty sure Steve took care of that...and lots of eagle visits. Jo saw a soaring eagle today while out, and some who were feeling poorly are feeling better today Bob's got some fabulous pictures posted from Open House Critter and Talon shows, and got a nice email from Mr. Battson about it and Ceil has a new moniker, it is Ceil!11

«Oldest ‹Older 201 – 400 of 491 Newer› Newest»Yep, he brought a stick and is placing it very close to where Belle is standing...dangerous move, Lib!
She is either thaking him or fussing at him...can't tell which.
I may be mistaken, but it looks as if Belle knocked Lib off the nest! Will post photos later on Momsters Album.
Lib is back with another stick. Wow, they are really getting busy. If they get the nest finished before January, wonder if they will start nesting early?
I talked myself right through a split.
Belle is watching Lib place a stick near his Launch Pad. I guess he needs reinforcements so she can't knock him out of the nest so easily;)
Looks like she is re-arranging the stick that Lib just placed. Of course she is:)
The ROYAL famly are still preparing the nest---appears there may be some differences of opinion!!----life goes on....
Thanks WANDA!--wonderful idea to post this on your site for the others to see----
Well, that was interesting, looks like they are at separate corners now. Guess she just couldn't hold her tongue about where he put that stick.
Morning all:)
Belle has left the nest, can Lib be far behind?
GOOD MORNING, NORMA AND MEGAN...
Thought I was all alone. These two have been fairly busy since a little after 7am.
Yep, he's gone too.
Momsters photo site won't allow me to post photos, can't even look at them:(
I have to sign in to get to pictures, even if it already says my name at top of page, try signing in.
I will try to post later.
May put a few on my Wild and Wonderful blog, meantime.
WOW!---I was watching the ROYAL COUPLE---& WHOA!---I had trouble getting back on the blog---
Good morning my eagle buds.
Yeah WVU-go SKINs!!
BOTH eagles are back in the nest again.
Hello Thelma:)
Off to work, nice to see our pair before I go.
Well MEGAN---What's happening?---The sun is shining -- skies are blue & the trees are such beautiful autumn colors---Would be a perfect day for a hike in the woods!!----Our temp is 46°---
MARGY!---If you are home--I have some news for you about the delicacy you prepared yesterday!!
MORNIN' DEB---What time do the VICKING play today?---HAVEN'T GOTTEN A PAPER YET!!!
MORNIN' T-BIRD!---Wasn't that WVU--UCONN day about the best game I have seen in a long time?--I was so hoarse I could hardly talk!!---COACH STEW & our team were so kind to the UCONN team---am betting on the VICKINGS & DALLAS today!!
BWO---Our stately EAGLE is back!!
One can see what an EAGLE brought to BWO yesterday!!
Normabyrd-we only got to see the end of the game here in Bedford. I thought WVU handled the UConn tragedy with class and still won the game!!! Hats off!
Morning all, greetings from western PA where it is cold and sunny.
I've been lurking for weeks but the "tongue" talk brought me out. When I lived in TX it was readily available in the supermarket. As I recall you had to cook it for hours. It is very good once you get past the image in your mind. I've never seen it in the stores here.
Happy that I have seen the royal couple several times lately.
T-BIRD!---Prior to the game---The folks on the WVU side stood when UCONN team came out on the field---The teams were huging each other & they had the 'empty #6 shirt' hanging there--so sad---Saw it mentioned on a news-cast last night!!
Good Sunday Morning All
WOW! A sight for eyes that have not seen the Royal Couple recently.
Both in the nest looking beautiful...
WELCOME GRANNYBLT!!---We have MISSED you!---I goggled last night & discovered COW TONGUE is quite a DELICACY & mentioned that we all have probably eaten it & not known we had!--- Both COW--LAMB TONGUE & BRAINS, --all so BULL BALLS, etc--& the list goes on!! ho!
Reading some comments Lib & Belle must be making a day of it making sure everyone gets their eagle fix. I was surprised that the cam was up!
Eagle Alert Again
Yuck! Norma
Glad I have my 1st cup of coffee in me!
Enjoy your day!
MORNIN' MEMA JO!---I envy you & your family!---You are truly blessed to have such a close loving family---that live near you!---& sounds as if they are all good cooks--wishing you a good day!!
Poof!
Bull Balls - Nope! Not me! LOL
Norma Does your Sunday paper get delivered right to your home?
Going to get ready to leave for a while. I'll check in when I return.
BBL
Yeah JO--paper is usually here about 7---no later than 7:30!
Good morning! No leg pains. Slept well and even slept late. Beautiful and sunny here this morning.
MORNIN' SHIRLEY!---Good news-!!-you are feeling better today!---This is going to be a glorious day!--I am a happy camper too!!--after calling paper person--found paper under the front wheel of my car!---Now I can start my day! ho!
I remember when we had problems with our paper disappearing. Someone must have been taking it. We finally asked the paper lady to toss it behind the shrubbery and that worked.
good Sunday a.m., everyone, have a good one:)
Morning, Mits. How is baby Ben?
She is a good paper person--she has a huge route!---Just hearing you are feeling better is great---do you think you may have been working too hard?
he is fine and dandy....I guess, have not seen him since last week, they live an hour away, and Annie's sisters from out of town are visiting this weekend.
I have gotten updates by phone this past week, and everything seems fine, but very busy
Norma, I think I need to stay more hydrated. That should be simple enough.
MORNIN' MITS!---How is BABY BEN & what do the big sisters think about him now??
Can't stay, time to get ready for church. Just wanted to say GOOD MORNING!
Sounds like you got to witness a great nest visit this morning. I was up to 1 last night reading. Reading a great book!
So much about tongue. How about this....In Spain Jack ate tail of fighting bull. No thank you!! But better than tongue I would say.
Have a great Lord's day! I will be back this afternoon.
If I remember with my kids---They were just a wee bit too helpful with the new baby---ho!
Shirley, I used to be HOT all the time. When I started my diet I started drinking a LOT of water. Now I am not hot all the time. I think my body was telling me I needed water and just did not realize it. Water is so good for you. I tied my water with meals, that helped to remember to drink. I drank before I ate, while I ate and after I ate. lol Hey, I lost weight and I am feeling so much better.
MORNIN' LOLLY!---OX TAIL was mentioned at the GOGGLE site!---ho!ENJOY your day!!---
Pulling a Magpe! Really got to go. BYE!
WHOA!!! LOLLY----you are still 'HOT'----ho!
Good Eagle morning! What a good way to start the day....sunshine, cam and eagles at home!! Cool!
Getting ready to spend the afternoon/evening away....youngest's bell choir is performing with a barbershop quartet at church this afternoon---strange-sounding combination, but should be fun. Apparently mostly secular, as pastor is making them perform in fellowship hall rather than sanctuary! Then we are going out for dinner---don't know where yet.
Thelma, Skins play tomorrow night. Just love a NATIONAL audience for debacles, huh??
Have a glorious day, Hedgie...
sounds like a great performance to see AND hear.....love both sounds, barbershop and bell choir !
xo
secular, schmecular....it's the beauty of God in music ♪ ♫
Good Morning Everyone !
Had a perfect opportunity to get to Mass in Hedgesville, right in the midst of that Eagle Visit this morning...
Name of Priest: Father Pooch - how about that? His real name is longer....so this is how he goes by.
☺
MORNIN' LOVELY HEDGIE!!---Thought of your corn bread all evening!--ho!---Perfect weather to be out in the sunshine!!
I was awakened by the sound of cow hooves in my dreams or would that be nightmares...discovered the Still Cam was UP just before
1:00 am.....
Sent Steve a thank you message, I am sure he had something to do with this....
Thanks Steve ! ☺ ♥
Ooops. Seems like the server might still be having some technical problems, hope folks can get to the blog...
Interesting comments on Bovine and Barnyard delicacies...I shall remain quiet....☺
Lolly, it has been shown that heavier people are warmer!!! More hot flashes, too!!!
Happy sunshiny beautiful Autumn morning to everyone.
Thank you to those who send good wishes that seem to have worked. I am feeling better after 10 hours of sleep. Also, pain has subsided for now -- just too much walking around the past three days so legs were having heart attacks.

Lynn, enjoy the afternoon and evening. Bell choir and barbershop sound interesting if they perform together.
Glad Ben is doing well with lots of loving caregivers.
I WILL NOT discuss the "T" thing. So gross!

Judie
Good morning Judie! I am so happy that you are feeling better. Relax in a recliner as you think about what you are going to do this week. Rest those legs.
One of our administrators once said that as high school teachers, we get to be teenagers forever. It is a fun thought. I skipped dressing in the spirit week costumes except for Friday--blue and gold day, but lots of teachers dressed up with the kids.

that you are feeling better...☺

and nice to see that others saw them too
GOOD MORNIN' MARGY!---I wondered where you were this am!!---Do you have the day off?---Great day for a hike in the woods!!
I'm going to try to get some things done here and then get out and enjoy this great day later- might try a little fishing...
TTFN Best Wishes for a Great Day, All
and especially hope that Deb's day at work goes fast ! (and anyone else off to work today)
xo
Yeah, I don't think those pilots can explain their way out of that mess. I would want to go hide in a hole.
Yes Norma, off but a little fragile for getting called in...I punch back in at 0600 Monday if nothing else happens. Bet it is Beautiful in Romney !
MARGY--I didn't mean to bring up the subject again---but I just googled & WOW!---Did you read the blog from GRANNYBLT?---EAGLES were on a long time this am!---JUST TOO WONDERFUL!---Kept clicking back on to see if they were still there! ho!
HEY JUDIE! JUDIE!---Isn't it great to wake up feeling good in the am?---I think maybe you & SHIRLEY have been working too hard---
I forgot to wish DEB a fast day!---I hope she has a FAST CHEERFUL day!!
Yes Norma, I sure did, I read back to where I left off when I left for church...
Bull Whats? Don't answer that !!
We'll both be run off the blog !!
..end of discussion..
Ha Ha, I set aside a few slices for Gene if he wants to have a sandwich with horseradish...☺
Okay, putting work clothes on now.
TTFN xoxo ☺
I had so many belly laughs yesterday, I just really want to Thank Everyone for being so much fun about it ☺
Ready for church...not time to leave yet.
Hey Shirley....you may be a teenager forever, BUT I am a kindergartener forever! That is much better. Get to learn while playing. lol
Norma....after church headed to Dallas to watch the COWBOYS game on Michael's new 105 inch projection TV in his media room. Wooser!
Margy, we were laughing with you, thanks for the laughs!!!!!
Leaving now. BYE...once again!
Okay bye Lolly Magpie ♥
I think I just demonstrated that we play in high school, too! I have done some work with the little ones, too. Four-year-old Bible School kids are cool.
I had them all hold onto a rope to line up and go places. They were known as the "rope gang."

We were told that Kathryn and I worked together beautifully, that we communicated without even speaking to one another. Maybe it is because Kathryn helped me raise twins. She anticipated what needed to be done without my saying a word.
MARGY---Mark it down as a 'LEARNING PROCESS'!-----We all learned no one would come to dinner if invited!---ho!
Can't believe that my stupid neighbor called police for a vehicle unlock......geesh!! People are ignorant...JMHO.
Yeah, Margy, I was quietly laughing at all of the "tongue" talk. I couldn't think of anything to add to that conversation!
Margy, re: your comment at 10:50....one time the pastor asked attendants not to applaud the bell and choral choirs because "we are in a house of worship"....duh! Make noise unto the Lord, all ye lands....I think the Lord loves the celebration in music and doesn't mind at all if we applaud!! Think Pastor John, who is a young man, is carrying our Presbyterian staidness a bit too far!!
As a fellow Presbyterian, I agree with you, Lynn. Goodness!
Hey, Shirley, more in common, huh???!!!!
Okay, gotta change clothes, brush out hair, put Cinny in crate and head out. See all y'all this evening sometime. Enjoy the sunny, cool, breezy day of rest!
Bye, Lynn. Have a good day. I must get out and take some pics for my photography class. Today is the last day to get in assignments.
Lynn, we do have a lot in common. It helps to find someone out there who has shared my experiences, both good and bad ones.
And some that seemed bad at first but turned out to be good.
Closing song from church today,
"Let There Be Peace on Earth."
It was a nice send-off.
Yeah, even squealing kids are a song to the Lord...we have one particular Mass in Charles Town which is pretty much known to be the Children's Mass...so expect noise!
Shirley, great day for taking pictures I would say! I took some pictures of some Yellow trees this morning, and one of an apple orchard.
Enjoy the day, all...
I'm hanging framed pictues on the walls here, and there, including some of my grandson's "Artwork" from school. ☺
I love children stories
xo ♥
By the way, one of the best and strongest things to use when hanging pictures if they are not to heavy:
Straight Pins!
Home again! While driving a beautiful Bald Headed Eagle flew in front of us.
Really was unexpected - I wasn't driving so I got a very good view of him.
I have eaten lunch and I will be putting my feet up for a short time and then hopefully get some of those sunshine rays.
BBILW
Hot dog, Mema...couldn't happen to a Nicer Pers☺n - tell us later where you saw it!
Wanda and Gene just dropped off ONE of my two umbrellas, the other is making a new home in Bluefield until our next Momsters get-together with Sissy ☺
Okay back to work now...

Hot Dog Shirley! Company !
I am getting some pics.
enjoying the sunshine like so many others today ☺
I have lots of eagle pics that I have yet to put in the album.
9 for me so far...
I have to leave soon...hate to do it when the birds are there...
but I have a date with a fishing pole and some artificial lures...need to wet some lines !
Some wonderful poses.
#10 - probably the best one so far
one bird has left
I will get my pictures up after I return...
catch and release...I will not be talking about fish heads tonight ☺
Shirley - you learned how to do it yet ?
I can walk you through it later....
Better than football !
Oh, there ARE still two in the nest...one was hidden by the other
Liberty in front, Belle in the back - I think !
I still can't tell them apart. I know Belle is bigger.
Got an email from Larry Battson after sending a link to the Open House photos: "As a whole these may be the best we have ever had taken of our family doing a program". That was nice of him to say.
Nice, and TRUE, Bob
I totally agree with him
Our eagles are on the nest...
How is Windows 7 ?
How cool, Bob:)
Nice to see eagles in the nest this time of day. I have a hummingbird in my garden since yesterday . Looks like a female.
I have to focus on getting pics and loading them onto the site for my class tonight. I have been able to do it okay so far, but have to demonstrate that I can use different functions of my camera and put them on the site.
I would really like to know how these classes are graded. It sounds funny, but I do not know. I think they are graded classes, but all that shows in the gradebook so far is checkmarks. I have to assume if I'm getting checkmarks, I am okay.
Probably should just e-mail the teacher and ask.
One eagle has left.
Oh yay Megan...was hoping you would catch a glimpse
Both there!
Back again. both in nest.
You're definitely OKAY with us Shirley, no matter what the grade books say..
Okay, am leaving the Eagles in good hands, hope to maybe see an Osprey or Hawk at the fishing place...
TTFN - xo ♥ ☺
Hi Megan!
Yes, Margy, I might need help getting pics posted to album. I have been told before, but might not be able to find it.
13 pics, will load 'em later
Thanks, Margy.
Hello Shirley:)
just one eagle now, belle, I think.
I am perfectly happy with checkmarks. It is really less stressful for the teacher and for me as long as I'm getting an A for a checkmark.
Seems to be posing for the camera.
Megan - I would have thought the hummingbirds would have migrated by now. I love watching them.
So far Win 7 is good but upgrading is not for the feint of heart. If you're upgrading from XP you have to start from scratch. Back up all your data to another drive, reinstall all your software and copy your data back. I was already on Vista so the upgrade was easier. I had to jump though hoops to get my mail back though. No more Outlook Express or Windows Mail. It's Windows Live Mail now. It's OK but different.
Hi Bob!
Little bit of wind blowing the eagle feathers.
Hey Shirley!
been a nice long visit....Deb is not going to be a happy camper when she sees her team's score.
nice compliment from them Bob, they were wonderful pictures, sooo clear.....guess I will stick with XP, till I get a new computer, my desktop at BEACH is 8 yrs old, and my laptop here is 5 yrs old.
I have usually brought in my computer savvy sons to install major stuff, Bob. I can do some small things, but what you did sounds pretty complicated.
I think of you, Bob, when I start playing around with my camera and trying to learn new things.
I havent' seen any hummers for about two weeks, heard this one yesterday, but never saw it, today I got a good look at it, sat right beside me, it's a female, and pretty good size. I have lots of salvias still blooming and I put out a feeder this morning.
I added a few more pics to that gallery. More of the same from Battson's show, just a few different angles.
Margy, don't think you will see any osprey this time of year..:(
She might see a cow bird:)
lol......hope it does not stick its tongue out at her.....moooo-cheep:)
Went to load the dishwasher and came back to see we still have an eagle.
A cow bird might be taking a real chance sticking its tongue out at Margy--if it wants to keep its tongue.
We have had an eagle in the nest for about an hour and a half now.
That is an eagle at times and two eagles at other times.
Evening all. Nice looking bird in the nest. Margy you are not going to live down that tongue menu. Ask Bob. Now he has the feather incident. Pics are great. Jubby got some good ones and one of these days you might get to see them.
Hi Ceil!11
Supposed to be exclamation marks after the greeting, not an 11.
Camera battery is charged. Must go.
Hi Shirley. It has been such a beautiful day wish we could keep this type of weather.
Just popping in to say I am home but am going out to eat.
Beautiful Eagle in
our nest
Thanks Jo. Belle still in nest
She is looking for Lib. She keeps turning her head.He is late
Poof She went looking for him.
happy Sunday everyone. Its a beautiful day..
trying to remember how to download pictures. ahhhhhh!
EAGLE BACK!
put some new pictures in.. Hope you like them,
Bear at snowman cam early
I see him crunch.
Today the skies were beautiful... The swirling cloud formations this afternoon were gorgeous. This evening as the sliver of the moon appeared against the pink sunset was breath taking. Hope everyone got a chance to view it.
Ceil --- one of these days is how far from today? Before we get to see those photos? lol
Group of raccoons at Pix PA woods.
Diego (soon to be names Nov 17) is sleeping and growing all at the same time!
Wow, see those Eagles were in good and Many hands...☺
Oh I love the cowbird comments!
Mits, I thought about that too...too late for Osprey...did not ever see one this year as in years past , but wait for next comment.....
Botanist that lives in nice big house with creek view, and 40-acres of creek frontage, reports that:
Conservation Officer saw a Bald Eagle at a spot very near to the bridge, where I go bird-watching. I will call that DNR officer Monday and get details !!!
Hi Ceil 11 if you are still around ☺
Mits, my computer is about 8 years old now too...son-in-law's actually, he has been wonderful to let me have it...and it actually performs quite well...
Outlook Express is good on email for me, and Windows XP and IE 7 -
The DNR officer who saw the bald eagle is the one I think that lives not too far from Swinging Bridge, I have seen him several times when I have been out there.
I was very successful at fishing, three sticks and several leaves, and some photographs
Shirley one big helpful hint about saving pictures, is to name them easily, I usually use the date to start with, if I am taking several I just try to go
#1 #2 and so forth, on the same day I will do am, pm, etc. I will send you an email about other things....
Jo I saw (and see) that beautiful Moon, it is trying to catch Jupiter and I think tomorrow night, It Will ! Soon we will be asking Megan for the next Full Moon Name
Off to check Eagle photo album, look for Anne-Marie's pictures, and load up the afternoon Eagle visit picture...
BBIALW
By the way, Jo, I love that picture you took of Sandra at the luncheon....
okay I found Anne-Marie's pictures on the picture link on her blog profile...not sure if they made it to an album or now.
OR NOT !! still checking
Margy - I looked all through the Momster album for Anne's pics until I remembered her personal blog! Anne Marie took the pic of Sandra - I had transferred from FB some of Anne's pics to the Momsters'.
Suggestion: when taking more then 1 pic of the eagles while in the nest - the numerical date (10-25) and the time (62513) are very helpful in their title in order to arrange them in sequence.
Okay Jo - - my 13 precede your two from this evening, I will try to remember the time thing too.
Chrissy posted some new pics on her Bits and Blobs and that album is on page two of the album pages...they are nice ones.
☺ so my 13 are up, some are almost duplicate ...but not quite. There are some very determined expressions on Liberty's face on a few
xo Good Evening to all...sure hope to see Deb on here soon and HOPE SHE HAS MONDAY OCT 26 OFF !!
Also, I am wondering about Loretta....going to send her an email, and always want to see Dana and ALL our pals check in !
xo
Hi everyone,
Well, not to put too fine a tongue on it, we had coconut shrimp for dinner.
Racoon party at PixPa, bear at Snowman. Missed all the eagle visits today -- wish I hadn't.
Will be trying to read a few pages for pleasure but soon turning off my light. Leaving the night light on for others. Sleep well everyone.
Judie
Judie
Well, you can see some of what you missed on the Momsters Albums....can you get to them?
Oh, coconut shrimp ! Wish I had known, I know how to get to Annandale ☺
Good Night, and very best wishes for a good week coming up
xo ☺
was that a tongue-in-cheek remark, Judie:)?
I put a little Fun and Dandy on Fun and Dandy
This was a really stellar day here, starting out with the Eagle Visit, then Mass with Father Pooch, short visit from Wanda and Gene, all the blogging with Eagle Pals, and I put nine new things on the walls, not sure I am in the right house !
New old things. By the way, goal for this week, is to master One-Liners. Plus I go back to work in the morning, so things will be quite quiet from THIS ROOST
all these reminders about the T thing, reminds me I have some sandwich makings for work tomorrow ☺
Hi Helen ☺
Just thought I would stop in to say 2 months from today is Christmas.
Tongue in cheeck? Well, I've heard of people eating animal cheeks! Oh good grief I am really feeling nauseous with all the talk of animal body parts! Just let me know when you'll arrive and headless coconut shrimp it will be!
Good night for real, this time. Light's off -- night light is on.
Judie
okay leaving room for others now...sorry I was just hyped up from trip to Swinging Bridge
you had to say it, didn't you Ceil....Hi Margy....I have several boxes in my computer room with Christmas presents already for the kids and son and d-i-l...going to get Christmas bags and put them together, get some gift certificates and I am done, hopefully...
I'm home! L-o-n-g afternoon/evening!
Haven't read all of blog yet---got stopped on Margy's first post when I left.....same song ended todays' concert, Margy. Love it!!
Aw...geez...Ceil...that means I gotta start cutting greens in about 3 weeks...
funny Hedgie...just before you posted, I was thinking about your afternoon ♥
Megan...still got some of that fancy handy protection cream for the winter ?
Sure do
Wow, 389 comments. Bet I don't catch up on this blog. Will somebody let me know all the highlights? Just kidding! Really enjoyed spending the weekend with my sister-in-law Carmen! We were just pretty lazy and visited all weekend!
Bob, very nice compliment from the Battson's indeed, but we all know that you are the BEST photog!!!
Mits, Judie, etc.......the tongue thing is never gonna die!!! Margy, if yoy are taking sandwiches to work, just tell folks it's roast beef---no lie, right???
So cool about the eagle at Swinging Bridge!!! Can't wait to hear more!
Shirley, you were sure right earlier about shared experiences...some that seemed bad turned out to be so good!! we are women, hear us roar!!!
Well, I'd give you the highlights but I'm just tongue-tied....
nite all:)
OMG...........Margy....you made my heart do a flip-flop when you said you hoped that Deb had tomorrow off.......and when I went to look at my notes, I found that my brain did the same a week ago when I sent a birthday card to SUZ instead of Deb...........duh! What a dummy I am. And Suz is probably wondering "what the heck???"
Good evening and blessings around. Until I read back on the blog I'm late in getting on then most have already said good night. Someday I'll be caught up!
Sunday is football and both of my teams won today. Yipee!!
I know it's basically a closed topic but I want to add my 2 cents re beef tongue. When I was in high school (a long time ago) I had an after school/summer job at a super market as a check out girl. People would buy those "things" and expect me to ring them up and slide it down to the bagger. I figured out a way to avoid that. I would ring it up without touching and use a can or whatever to slide it down to the bagger. My mother, as a youngster, worked in a butcher shop and the things she told us would make some vegetarians.
Anyway, blessings to those still here and hope all have a restful night.
P.S Glad the still cam is back up but I still missed the eagles today. :-(
Margy, what kind of fish were you hoping to catch? I don't even know what's in Back creek!
Hi Pa Nana - DIANN -
good to see you on here, and I believe the butcher shop stories...i fact, I WAS a vegatarian for awhile many years ago....
More later... xo
wanted to catch Diann before she left
G☺☺d Night Megan
Going to bed now. Hope everyone has a restful night!
I have read enough to know, Megan, that there is tongue-in-cheek talk going on here.
Couple highlights Sharon:
Shepherd played WV State Saturday...homecoming, beat them soundly...is that not Andrew's school?
Still CAM went down AND came back up on the week-end...pretty sure Steve took care of that...and lots of eagle visits.
Jo saw a soaring eagle today while out,
and some who were feeling poorly are feeling better today
Bob's got some fabulous pictures posted from Open House Critter and Talon shows, and got a nice email from Mr. Battson about it
and Ceil has a new moniker, it is Ceil!11
