Well now, Lolly, I think that the clown issue is 6 one way, half dozen the other. You know we do clown around a lot and if the SHOE FITS...
Sissy, I don't think you saw my question about how you lost you 14 pounds...what is a WII?
Eagle back
wiggle wiggle
So, Sissy, just where did you think Dingleberries grow?
Hi Margy, glad you're safe home.
Hi Bev, join in anytime you can.
Wanda, maybe you gs should get in touch with Steve?
Yes, I changed my avatar again. Jo sent a picture of the new Sheetz design. Way cool!
Snow removal kids arrived a few minutes ago. Reasonable price. Now neighbors coming out to give them more work. Ah to be young again.
Now to tackle my next two assignments. Washercide left lots of crime scene evidence in the laundry room -- must get rid of it. Then on to read the Consumer Reports washer/dryer info. Anyone got suggestions on washer/dryer brands?
Oh, Margy---didn't know---didn't hear---guess that was when I was in the tub. Hope the tow truck co. gave you a big break since you are a public servant.
Had a huge sycamore once---would have been a terrible mess if it had been on a lawn instead of in the woods along the road---of course, road was a mess! Not as bad as walnut, but.....I would collect the seed pods and spray them w/ gold paint and use them as Christmas tree decorations!
Margy, did they ever get Ridge Rd. open?
From just before the split:
Funny stuff this A.M.:
I found out I can get the live feed on FireFox again if I disable my ADBLock;
But you wouldn't believe how many pop ups and pop unders and just interfering ads that the software blocks. I can even view snopes.com without picking up ads; so which way ???????
Belle was just getting up from the nest and Lib came in when I started watching. Her instincts seem to be to try to hatch that last one, but his seem to be treating it like it is time to start over.
Now, if I look on full screen it appears that one of the earlier eggs might be emerging from the snow next to #3.
Personally, I think it would be best if they abandoned the first clutch and started over. I'm anxious to see what they do though.
Blogger cop got me.
Jim--I think lots of us would agree with you, but the eagles won't ask for our opinions.
Maybe that is just as well.
Wanda, it is a video game console, very popular now. There is a "game" called Wii Fit Plus. It comes with a board that you use to exercise on. It is the coolest thing. All different kinds of exercises and yoga and aerobics, fun stuff. Don't hardly even know I am exercising. I love it!!!
PAULA-- what does hp stand for?
Have always been a Maytag fan, but my washer and dryer I have had for years. Know that there is now a lot more varieties out there.
Hanky Panky
Which of them do you think are on the nest now??
C(°ٿ°)D
Jim
Does anyone know why I cannot get the cam feed on this website? I watched all last year and for some reason cant get it this year. I have to go to the outdoor channel to view the eagles. Strange.
I too hope the eggs are okay and that the weather would give us a break. Altho I hear another storm is moving in Tues or Wed.
Have seen some fantastic washers in the stores. Those front-loaders look wonderful, but are pretty expensive, I think.
There is an appliance store north of here that seems to give good deals. I'll check and see if I can find it.
One of my friends once told me that a washer repairman told her, "Lady, that washer doesn't owe you anything." I think hers was only 30 years old. My mother had one--a Kenmore--for about 30 years, too. You got 40 years, I believe you said, Judie.
So maybe it was a natural death, not washercide at all.
Laura, this is the cam site. On NCTC page there is a link to this site.
Was just checking on Boo, he was almost stuck in the snow, was trying to get out by going over the fence. The snow is right at the top of my 4ft fence. I called him with a dog biscuit and he was able to get turned around and come in...whew!
I did know what a Wii was! ho!
Gonna grab a quick snack and head out to shovel...
We all have to go to the Outdoor site.
Norma, Norma! HP=hanky panky!!!
Jim, can't give any advice on browsers and such---duh! Don't know much about it, as you know, since I'm always asking for help!
Judie, did you know that Electrolux has appliances now??? They always had the BEST vacuum cleaners in my opinion, with Singer being 2nd. Kenmore, of course, is more affordable, and I've had my Kenmore W&D for 19 yrs.
oh one of them is back on the nest.
Judie--this is where I bought my dishwasher. Went there because Kathryn had bought one there also:
Appliance Connection
I don't know if they deliver. We have always done our own pick-up. They had scratch and dents in a backroom. Lots of selection.
Judie - I like Whirlpool or Kenmore brand. Maytag is good too.
Jim - that's Belle incubating
Laura - outdoor channel is the host for the live feed this year. They can provide more bandwith so more people can watch the live feed than NCTC can.
I have have always owned a KENMORE!---(I may not like SEARS service folks in Cumberland, MD)--but KENMORE IS GOOD!
Snowing hard here now. Big fluffy flakes. I just think of the boys and smile. hee hee Laurel has to do the clean up when they come in.
Reminds me of the winter Laurel was born. Michael was just short of 4 and I had to stay inside with newborn baby. Michael played with the neighbor kids in the snow and then came in crying cause he was so cold. Poor baby!
I would call first, Judie, if you decide to go there. It says they were closed yesterday.
Shirley and Margy---I had an S-10 Chevy p/u once that I hung up on the snow....plow had filled in end of driveway, but thought I could just go through it---it was only about 10" high---undercarriage was too low and I hung up on it with 3 wheels off ground!! Neighbor shoveled me out. Duh!!
Jack has declared today the day he is going to watch all three movies of Lord of the Rings. He is now a Lazyboy Potato, too!
Leaving for a while to eat a bite and then "walk".
BBL
Okay, they do deliver. Go to FAQ.
Well I went there but I am having to blog at one site and watch the video on another. It takes me to the outdoor channel where I can view the eagles.
I have been watching all the birds that are down in my shrubbery---There are all kinds!--AWESOME there are so many---FUN to watch!--
Hello Sunshine! No way can I ever get caught up quickly so I need to let you know I am well and snowed in! What's new?
Belle calling to Lib??
Laura, open the two windows, blog and cam. Then split the screen. On my laptop, I right click in the task bar and then click on split screen. Have both up that way.
Hi, Jo. We saw an egg this morning. Don't know if it is viable, of course.
Long story short, eagle on nest but was gone for a long time. Have seen both eagles and heard hp.
Several newcomers.
Oh, and not to be left out Jo, we have 2 inches of snow on the ground and it is still coming down.
WHOA MOVIN'JIM!!---It is not good to FOOL MOTHER NATURE! ho!
wow went outside to greet the Karen our mail person, came back in and had to read 42 posts:)
Yes, I just open a window, restore it down (little squares in upper right hand corner on IE), then open another and restore it down so I can see both the blog and the cam at the same time.
got to see all my neighbors, they knew hubby was away, because nothing had been dug out, wanted to make sure I was ok....the sun feels fabolous on the face
I have to work on updating my syllabus. BBL.
We have never had a blog and the cam on the same page.
Both in nest. Belle is still talking!
Now, will Lib sit on the egg???
I have been wanting to get a Wii, but they are so darn expensive, was not sure I would use it enough to justify the expense.
I see an egg.
MORNIN' JO!---Not much talking except answering question from several visitors who have checked in!--you know we don't like to brag on OUR EAGLES! ho!---
Lib, rolled the egg and looks like he might sit in the egg cup.
Whoops, back off the egg. Looks like he just will not help out.????
and thank, heavens my mailperson took the Valentines...and more BD cards have come in especially for Grandma Kalis:)
WHOA! MITS---That's more than a month of papers!!---LUCKY YOU!!
I think Sears or Kenmore appliances are made under contract by one of the biggies. You can ask the salesman which company and where it was made.
I think my refrigerator was made by Whirlpool...my last one. The present one was bought at Sears, but it is badged "Frigidaire".
Remember when Frigidaire was a generic name for all of them?? Some of my relatives still use the name that way.
C(°ٿ°)D
Jim
But I used to be able to get the video on the US wildlife and fisheries and the blog link was on there. But now I cannot view the video but have to go to outdoor channel. Oh well. Guess I will just keep doing that. Thanks.
Norma, my papers don't get delivered thru the mail, and the one we get the washingtonCompost, I never read, hubby just gets it so he has a sports page to read in the a.m., I read all my news online.
MITS!---I am not nuts!---I THOUGHT YOU MEANT YOU RECEIVED 42--'WASHINGTON POSTS'! ho!
roflmbo....no, no, Norma....posts on the blog
LOLLY--Are you folks having home made bread today!! ho!---(just asking)
off to do some chores...bbl.
need food!--
report for Jo....stay home....

Jim
Changed a doctor's appointment from Monday to today, but that means I have to take Hunter. It's at 2:30. I really wonder if they will have school on Monday, but at least now I don't have to worry about an appointment on that day.
Wow! I think something just fell off the house. Sounded like a gunshot! Going to go peek carefully out there.
Don't see anything except lots of melting and some icicles.
Wow! Thank all of you who are trying help with the washer/dryer problem. The recently deceased was Whirlpool and yes, almost 40 yrs.
Jim, I believe I do remember that some brand names were produced by the same manufacturer and Whirlpool was one of them. I'll check out the store you suggested,
Shirley and the Sears and Home Depot and Lowes. Just need to get educated before
going out -- when I am able to go out.
Only problem with Maytag is I think I remember the repairman died.
Off to read comsumer reports and do a bit of googling washers/dryers.
LOL Mits -- I thought you meant 42 WashingtonComposts, also.
Good luck, Judie. Hope you find what you want.
I posted a pic of a squirrel enjoying the squirrel food we put out. Glad they like it. It is securely attached to the porch so they can't run off with it.
Good to read all your comments. Shirley your pics would lead you to believe that at 7:00 she was rolling an egg. We are all going to be learning about viable eggs - Can't be sure until we see it for ourselves.
Sun is doing some melting. Son and gs here helping hubby clear the driveway.
Son has 4 wheel and brought his Dad some coffee this am.
One frustrating thing we found, Judie, was that different stores use different model numbers for the same washer to prevent comparison shopping.
Whoo Hoo Judie! LOVE your avatar.
Speaks well of you!
Yes Judie, the Maytag repairman died of boredom:)
Gene has a lot of faith in the Consumer Reports mag. In fact, right now, he is in town checking out a computer which they gave high marks to, that just happens to be on sale. I think at Best Buy.
We got our washer and dryer at Lowes...they were both a scratch and dent sale. They were a great price.
Got an e-mail response from Jack Hanna team. Same message as on Facebook. Will respond with a thanks.
All kinds of stuff falling off my roof. Be careful out there.
Mits - I know son shouldn't be out on the roads even with a 4-wheel drive However he went up 15N to pick up his stranded son and is now here.
He could possibly get a big fine if he caused a tie up or accident. Even some 40 yr olds never grown up.
Sissy, I knew that there was a game called Wii, but didn't know if there was something else with that name. My grandaughter got one with her Christmas money and she and Karla (her mother) love it. Don't think she has the weight loss thingy...might be a good B'Day present for her:)
I have a feeling we will get to 1000 plus comments before that new thread comes up. Hope I am wrong!
Watching our beautiful eagle in the nest standing by the egg cup.
Still sunny but really windy
Jo, some 69 year old never grow up and I about to prove it...
Sharon, Lib does not want to sit on that egg because it is cold on his Dingleberries;)
I just knew I couldn't be good all day!
Do I see 2 eggs in the nest????
Looks like someone had a shovel and cleaned out the egg cup and piled it at 12ish.
If you look closer, it looks like 3 eggs.
Oh Wanda. Now Sissy will know where Dingleberries grow.
Must go get decent enought to visit my doctor. BBL.
Wanda, I think you're Wright!!
Sorry, I couldn't resist, LOL.
We need to take a vote
Eggs or Snowballs ???
With that comment Donka Maria you are up 1 point. lol
Shirley are you driving yourself to DR?
Hubby is now at the deck making a
'cat path'
LOL, Judie----she sure will know! Love the avatar Jo sent you!!! So appropriate!
Sunny but where is momma.
Thanks Mema Jo. I'm glad you're keeping score. Have a good day everybody. Gotta get back to work (sob-sniffle).
Not sure if this affects any of you and I am assuming they are speaking of Allegheny (Power) Engery:
Allegheny Energy being sold in $4.7B deal
Utility company FirstEnergy said Thursday that it is buying rival Allegheny Energy for about $4.7 billion in stock in a deal that will create one of the nation’s largest power companies with customers from Ohio to New York.
Whirlpool makes Kenmore appliances. GE now owns Maytag brand, or vice versa on the GE/Maytag, can't recall.
It looks like 2 eggs to me with a snowball on the far left.
Margy I know you are probably dreaming pillow sweet dreams now I hope. I have to tell you. When I read in the comment "hummers" I too first thought huh hummingbirds. lol
So glad you got the help last night and are home safe today.
When you read this if you get back this far. The Post Office was it the one at Court House Square? If so was Edwin Miller Blvd. still rough and icy batched really badly for driving?
31° here in Eburg, but lots of melting going on with the sunshine.
Went and thanked my neighbors for snowblowing while I was out.
Rt 15 is shutdown from Frederick to PA line.
Emmitsburg roads are awful, neighbor was out and about, had a heck of a time getting back here.
Paula isn't there a bev that comes in every now and again in summer from Channel Island forum?
Helicopters are out and about :)
Got Mom's refrig from Sears, great delivery crew :)
Dana - I don't think there's a Bev, I think Karen In CA pops in now and again.
I got a message from Jack Hanna's team thanking me and giving the note that was on his fb. I thanked them and told them that I think it was his best show. Learned about the penquins.
I left and Wanda got WILD! Sitting here reading the blog and giggling. Shame!
Mits..I understood you meant posts on the blog, maybe because our paper is not the Post.
The sun is melting the snow and they are calling for a re-freeze. So walking or driviing is going to be pretty slippery later. Be careful out there.
Dunedin Osprey cam has 3rd hatch !
:):):)
Well, C.R. says one best buy is GE front-load washer $750 and one best buy a GE dryer $600.
Paula, interesting to see the differing test results for Whirlpool/Kenmore and GE/Maytag. You'd think there wouldn't much difference.
Will definitely check out the dents/dings possibility. No matter to me. People usually don't gather in my laundry room.
Shirley, be careful going to/from the dr.
See what I think are three eggs in the nest in sunlight but no Belle or Lib.
I have a hurting heart.
feeding at dunedine now
Taking a break BBILW
Laurel sent pictures via facebook. I have shared them. Know you don't care for snow pic but there are some cute pictures of two darling little boys and their friends. Joseph is playing football in the snow. Oh, what a boy! First picture is their house.
So NOW they come back and sit on the egg????? This is all a mystery to me!!
Looks like Belle is back incubating
I think they are useing that egg cup as an excuse for more HP:)
"See honey, Im sitting here, but need more eggs";)
Where is my mind today...my bad!
Sorry, I will behave the rest of the day.
Yes, DONKA MARIE, I am always Wright, because I married the Wright man:)
Lolly, can you put the boys on your FAMILY BLOG? I can't get into facebook for some reason today. It comes up but flips off seconds later:(
Lolly, pics of the boys (and their little friend) are cute. What is the temp??? They need winter jackets!!
Boy, am I having problems coming back in
good afternoon. I hope you are all dug out by now.
Are we sure this is the same male as last year. do not kill me LOL jsut asking
can someone help me . I signed up today and got in , did a profile and an avatar.
Just came back and I had problems . Now my avatar has disappeared and my profile I set up and I am different. LOL
It said my password was wrong and so I had to go in under a different e-mail that i did not know existed
Very confused here
bev, that has happened to others, too. Sorry, I'm not much help. I think it depends upon whether you sign up with google or blogger account.
YES, this is the same male. Personally, I think he knows the eggs are not viable. I think she still has the instinct to incubate them, even if they aren't. I think it takes longer to kick in for her.
Oh yes, Bev, this is the same male. They have never completely stopped coming to the nest so we have seen them quite often. Keep asking questions. It is all good!
Bev, I think someone will pop on here who can help you. I have had that problem on other web sites and just had to start all over again with a new password:(
Don't go away...someone will be here soon!
Bev, are you sure you didn't have your caps on?
Lisa at BWE has a nice article about their cam and their eagles, ours and NBG
I do not think I did but I do not know and do not want to sign out in case I cannot get back in
Yes, Paula , on other nests male gives up first. I know you all know the characteristics of these eagles, jsut as I know my falcons, so thought I would ask
I will wait for help
Hey, always Wright, Wanda. I'll go get the pic and put them on the blog.
Lynn, Jack said the same thing...Joseph was not dressed that warmly. But, this is the boy who was in shorts Sunday over at Michael's and it was cold. It is 35 here and always a little colder up there. Why...they are a whole hour north. lol
Well this wind should help clear the nest off
I think you are 2 hours ahead of me at the cam.
I think we forget sometimes how the elements affect nature.
BEV - Stay here where you are BUT open a new window and try the sign in again to our blog........ That way we won't lose you.
Forgot to say...we are up to about 3 inches and it is still coming down. They are saying some areas may get as much as 8 inches. That does not happen here...well not very often. Once...years ago, 1964, we had 12 inches.
I wish the Cams at BWE & BWO would be up/running. They have been stopped since 10 am yesterday
Lynn I just got to read the article about the crocodile. Shame.
Bev I am no help when it comes to computer problems. I just push the buttons and hope for the best
Need my 3:00 cup of coffee early today.
BBILW
Jo Lisa said that the computer at the Visitor Center may need to be rebooted but the roads are too bad.
Belle on the nest - so diligent about those eggs - I wish I knew but I guess we will find out soon enough. Well in about 35 days or so...
my coffee - forgot ..... BBILW
O.k. I am signed up on other side with my avatar and everything.
Strange
now I am in my profile on new window so how do I get to blog??
I wish my hubby was home. He is the computer expert LOL I am jsut the little woman LOL
Bev - maybe you can just hit the Back Arrow.....
lets see if this works
Hi again
Well I know I signed in at the wrong place before. Now I will remember.
Well I am off again and will check in from time to time if you all do not mind.
I will try and participate as much as I can. You sound like you have a good time. Being from Canada eh!!!LOL
I may not know what you are talking about

NEW THREAD !!
**************************
Hi, Gang,
Checking in to see what's happening.
Went to get some breakfast earlier, and never made it back here. Lots of cleanup in the kitchen, then lots of reading for school. Have a final tonight in Transcription Practice.
Looks like Belle is back on the nest. Maybe she knows more than we do. Praying for a miracle!
Welcome to the newcomers who are here today!
Judie, condolences for the loss of your ancient washer. Mine's currently a Maytag, but the previous one, a Kenmore, was the best ever. Daughter has a front-loader, and it's extremely good. Wish I had one of those, but only if I win the Lottery. Definitely look for one with a ding or scratch--Sears outlet near us has fantastic deals on those. Well, back to studying.... Later, alligators! :o]
oh, how nice it would be to have just "12" inches of snow....
Yea! Sounds like Bev just may be joining us. That is SUPER!
Wanda....I created a blog for Laurel's pics. Will add mine later.
Hi Andy, have a great night at school and with the transcription final. Let us know when you get home.
New Thread!!!!!!!
Come on over!
Wanda, I think you have the Wright cabin fever for getting crazy.
Good Afternoon everyone.....sure glad to be back for another season.. Hope all goes well for Lib & Belle...doing my best to get caught up on what's been happening since their return.
I see one egg in the nest, possibly 2.
Lib brought the groceries and left. didn't help her put it away. just like a man! ;o)
Diann, Naturegirl, anybody else . . . there is a new thread.
