«Oldest ‹Older 401 – 582 of 582Good morning, Dana, so happy to "see" you ! Do the Flying Labs have pent up energy from too much down time due to the weather ?
I got waxed !! My first time. I need that !
I can't believe there is more rain in our forecast...geez...not for today but several more times this week!
I didn't see the split coming !
We're having rains this week and the upcoming week, too. So far just gentle with no high winds or worse.
WOW I didn't see that split coming! LOL!
Perhaps...I'm not sure what got into them this morning, but I hope they get it out soon! LOL
Love seeing the avatar showing your youngest son, Dana ! He looks like he's a lot of fun !
Dana, do you have to refresh after each post in order to see the next ? I do, and wonder if I'm missing an easier way.
Yes, but I just go to the bottom and hit "newest" it's the same thing as refresh.
Have had to refresh the cam twice already. Kind of glad there is a breeze to alert me to that need.
He's 15 going on 16. Boomer is his dog and that picture was just so funny, I told him Boomer looks like him.
I'm disappointed I missed the mrning visit even though it was brief.
I don't remember Kay are you local? Or do you live far from here?
I usually don't have to refresh the cam too much, but I did just now...
At least the sun is up.
Thanks for the hint, your way seems a tad faster ! Almost driving age, but you've been through that before. Do each of the boys take care of their own dog ?
Something gltichy about the cam feed today. Needed another refresh already.
Well...to some extent. LOL! The dogs are kinda shared responsibility but most of it lands on me. They did take them to training and when the weather is warm they will walk them and such. They sleep with the kids too. Frisbee belongs to son #2, Boomer to #3 and Javalin (only female) belongs to my only daughter.
They kids take care of picking up the yard, so that's good.
Adam will be my third driver! The insurance is going to kill me.
Sounds like the typical household ! Mom usually takes more care of the pets than the kids do. I get a kick out of hearing kids vow to "do it all" when campaigning to get one !! What a nice family---is your daughter the youngest child ?
This is actually "Good Night", but....
&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&
GooD SundAY MorniNG
tO you aLL.

Have you noticed that the female on the BWO nest is still there this morning, AND she's looking like she's ready to spend some heavy time there.
Have a great day. I think our winds in So Cal will switch around to the on-shore direction and the clime will return to something like normal.
C(°ٿ°)D Jim
Jim, you're either up very early or very late ! Haven't had a chance to go to any other nest. Got on here just as Truder landed and keep expecting him or Belle to put in another appearance.
Thankfully I am an animal lover. We kinda ended up with 3 by default...LOL!
short version...
We had a "little" dog that we had to put up for adoption after having him and trying to train him for 2 years. He was attacking our older lab and one day almost got my youngest in the face during a fit. He bit me and my oldest and we just kept trying. We we had to get let him go Adam was devastated (it was his dog). We promised a new dog, and told them that labs were the only option. When we went to look at the pups I told them only 1. After we pulled away my husband says, "maybe we should get one for Annemarie too" (to save them from arguing) We called back, we weren't even a mile from the breeder, and hence 2 puppies! YIKES! We had to wait several weeks until they were of age, but we did go back and pick up two!
And yes, 3 boys and one girl. She is the youngest. They are 20, 18, almost 16, and almost 13.
Dana, do Hagerstown and Shepherdstown fall under the same weather forecast ?
Nice family ! I had two girls and a boy. Came from a family of two girls and my husband from a family of three boys. We were so happy to get a mix. I think men and women who grow up with sibs of the other sex adjust better to many things we encounter on this journey !
Yes, we are pretty close to Sheperdstown. We are within a few degrees usually.
Nest is really swaying. WOW
Fell asleep last night after early dinner, and so when I woke up later, I headed down to a Von's that is open until 2 A.M. to get some groceries.
Now I've got to hit the rack to get up early enough to get something done before the heat hits again.... Round and round and round.... But I did get some good stuff for feeds until late next week I guess.
C(°ٿ°)D Jim
Hello:)
The rain has finally moved out and the sun is trying to shine.
Today's nest weather- Mostly sunny. Scattered showers this morning. Windy with highs in the lower 60s. West winds 20 to 30 mph with gusts up to 45 mph. Chance of rain 40 percent.
Wish I was complaining about the heat Jim.
Sounds like you've been up all night.
I'm off...need to get ready for Mass...
Have a great day.
Well, you get some good rest, Jim ! Having spent much of my life in Arizona, I know there are tricks to beating the heat. Tucson wasn't so bad, but in Bullhead City I did a lot of night time shopping. Since it's sister city, Laughlin, NV is just across the Colorado, many businesses operated on a 24/7 basis for the benefit of casino workers.
Megan, welcome ! Happy to have your weather report and glad it's a pretty good one for the nest. How did you fare in the face of the storms yesterday ?
Say a little prayer for all of us, Dana ! Have a great day !
Thanks, Kay:)
Think we made it through alright, couple of power outages for several hours. Basement has some water in it, and the gardens are pretty flooded. Had a hard time getting home yesterday after running to school to pick up my kid. Many flooded roads here, not sure I can get out this morning, and with the awful winds, not even going to try.
Dana, it's been so nice chatting with you ! Thanks for sharing the child and pet part of your busy life with me !
Here's hoping you won't find too much damage once you can survey the scene completely, Megan. Perhaps it's a good thing the storm system moved through on Saturday, giving everyone Sunday to dry out a bit and assess damage. Good at least for those who live on a Monday-Friday work week.
Hoping the power stays on, the wind is going to be fierce all day. Off to check on my babies in the gh. Have a great day!
I hope Margy is finding an open route and easy travel to Frederick ! Sure wish we'd hear from Lori ! Hope things are okay there.
Thanks, Megan ! May you find all well in the greenhouse. Good luck with the wind and power situation today !
Okay, I'm just going to talk to myself for a while here ! Palm Sunday and my outdoor thermometer reads 40 degrees. Folks will be wearing wraps to church today. Why does Winter refuse to give way completely to Spring ?
Grandson, Seth, is up and at em'. I must get set for the day, open up the kitchen, etc..
BBL
Opting to feed the LOUD crew of 2 dogs and 5 cats not a good idea if I missed the visit this morning!
Great Morning Kay, Megan and DanaMo when you get back from Mass.
Windy morning here but I'm so happy the rain has stopped!
Good morning.
Sun is shining, pretty goldfinches at my feeder. Hoping for a nice day.
Good Morning Lori - I am just waiting for the sunshine not only to dry up but to warm up things.
Did you hear Margy holler?? lol
Hi Shirley - Good to hear you - I'm not usually up and on the computer this
early.
Good morning eagle momsters and dadsters.
Hello There Thelma - How wet did you
get yesterday?
It got pretty bad Mema Jo. Bedford sounded their alarm. A tornado went through a near by town.
How about you?
Good Morning Eagle Pals !
I'll holler NOW just in case you don't hear me in a couple of hours ☺
Glad to see our folks on here...know there are more to check in ....
very happy that Paula made it home to nuzzle Nugz, and with the miracle with the sump pump not running and no flooding....
but sorry to read of the situation at Megan's - no power, water in the basement, winds...gardens waterlogged...and no Market today
Prayers for you and your Gardens Megan...
(( Hugs ♥ ))
and Happy 1st Birthday Gianni !! ☺ ♥
short visit by Truder...and no Belle this morning, wonder where the birds will find fish today...?
thanks for the eyes' reports on the nest
Blessed Palm Sunday wishes to all
pulling things together here, have to google directions, and gas up the buggy...
$ $ $
will have you all on my mind and in my heart ♥ today
and will see you much much later this evening
xoxo ☺ ♥
great report about your daughter Eileen's son, Kay !
and I love all the doggy stories DanaMo and others ☺
okay, hope my travel routes won't be affected by flooded roads...was going to take 340 from Charles Town but will think about that as a return route instead
party starts at 11:30
ttfn xoxox ♥
Magpie, when are you going to come to Roanoke to visit your sister?
Double E-S
As soon as I can wiggle out of my work schedule for a few days, but have to schedule Annandale first...
another sister - Anne - who was so sick last year but is doing sooooo much better - Momster Prayers Rock !
How is your friend Tara's father doing ??
but we'll make a plan when it happens ☺ - Roanoke-Bedford that is
Drive safely and have a good time, Margy!
Just looked at today's date...one more day of silence from the Sycamore Palace:)
GOOD MORNING...
Must get ready for church. Hope no one has thrown anymore bags of clothes in the Closet!:)
HAVE A BLESSED SUNDAY♥
Thanks Wanda...☺
I have some more shirts to gather up, will put them on hangers !!
and bring you some extra hangers !!
Well I have a date with a whole bunch of family, guess I better find my fancy bibs and shake a leg
will catch up later
xoxo
Morning, all!
Sun is trying to shine here too...we really need it! We had so much flooding because the ground is just saturated!
Party was great yesterday, Ajay did a fantastic job on the cupcakes...and Gianni was a mess eating hers! Got to see my brother and sil and niece and nephews...wow hadn't been around a 13 yo girl with an attitude in awhile! Makes me glad I had boys, LOL.
I've been trying to meet up with my GF and her hubby, glad we had already changed last night to today, cause last night wouldn't have worked with the flooded roads...heading out around noon for some brunch with them.
Then back home to work on tax stuff...not even going to try to mow the front yard today!
Thanks for the morning visit report...and I see Belle was eating on the nest yesterday?
Darn I copied this from Magpie but wanted to be sure to remember to post this. sorry to read of the situation at Megan's - no power, water in the basement, winds...gardens waterlogged...and no Market today
Prayers for you and your Gardens Megan...
(( Hugs ♥ ))
Blessed Palm Sunday everyone.
Lori I have sent my friend request for Facebook. Hope you see it. Also sent you an email to ponder.
Good SUNNY Sunday!
Shalaway Bird column for today
Good Morning Eagle Friends!
Happy to hear no one had any major damage yesterday.
Decorah eagles just won't stay under Mom!! One keeps trying to edge toward the fish close by. I read where they don't self feed until about 4-5 weeks, but that oldest chick is a food monger!!
Margy - Have a great day today. Prayers for safe travels!!
Where's Robyn?
Worried about how she is feeling and how she fared through the storms.
Has anyone heard from her since Friday night?
Flugg thief on the nest
Oh, I am wondering if Nilla's FB account got disabled like mine did...I don't think you show up on your friends list when that happens
Margy, hope you decided to go 81 and 70 just to be on the safe side!
Have a great time!
Happy Birthday to Miss Gianni!!
Enjoy your brunch, Paula. And then you GET THOSE TAXES DONE!!!
Megan, glad you aren't going to market---the wind would destroy your blossoms.
DanaMo---think KayIM missed your question----she's in OH.
Kay, fascinating about your grandson's studies and travels. I was in India as a toddler for awhile. My Dad was ass't. attache' to the US Embassy in New Dehli.
Wanda, SO sorry my contribution wasn't on hangers. I just don't have many extras----I gave so many to the local consignment shop when I took my uniforms in to sell. Like I said, most of w hat I gave you was folded in drawers.
Jim, hope you are sleeping now!!!!
Hey, Thelma and Sharon, how's everything in Bedford??
I see Candy is on FB, so guess things are okay on the OBX. I sent her a message to make sure that all is well down there!!
Lots of tornado damage in eastern VA and NC, including the area where my ex has his vacation house. His place is okay, it seems.
There have been injuries and fatalities.
Hmmm is the osprey at BWO incubating?
Good morning! Just time to stay on a sec. Have finally managed to read the blog. Glad everyone weathered the storm.
Feeling much better today. Actually I was not feeling bad but my itchy runny nose plus sneezing was driving me crazy!!
The fires were managed a little better yesterday as the wind died down. However, the winds are returning this afternoon. They say it will be several more days fighting the fires. Sad!
Yes, wish we had received some of your rain!
We did have enough rain to share for sure, Lolly. But you would not want to have had all of the bad weather south and east of here.
Paula I don't think that an Osprey egg
has been laid but she was in the nest
last evening. They are both there now.
Christine is still without power in NC
Robyn has a video of the rising creek by her home on FB - she is up on a hill
and I think she is feeling well. I hope she is.
Thelma said that the siren went off in Bedford but they are okay.
Nope we have enough problems with tornado watches to not have yours as well.
I am running late now. Off to get ready for church.
Later!
I had to chuckle about Paula's comment regarding teenage girls and their 'tude! Yesterday, Miss Jessica was showing hers----which is mostly a "nothing is serious" or "whatevah" attitude. Jenn wasn't with us, but HERS is always the sulky and teariness kind. Wears her heart on her sleeve.
Don't remember either of my girls ever being either way to such extremes!
Maine nest is a rockin and rollin today, they have our bad weather now. Eagle on the nest eating, not sure if it's Dad Mom or the intruder.
Oh My, I had better grab a shower and get ready to meet my GF...
Sent Geula an email to let her know that we are thinking about her....and her EAGLE! She will celebratinng Passover starting tomorrow, so don't know if that will have any impact on her responding or not.
Hedgie, she doesn't by chance have a picture of it on her FB page. I didn't
check but saw her on Chat earlier this week.
I am going to be MIA for a few days as
Hubby, daughter and I go to DE to open
summer house. My internet down there
is dial Up! I'll try to say hello but
don't worry about me if I can't get
through.
You are 'Hold Down the Nest'
♥
I meant to say
'You ALL Hold down the Nest'
C U
Back from church and digging into the housework. Mom is bringing dinner so that's one thing off the list, but I have lots of dog hair to clean up and a pile of laundry and ironing. Why must all 3 dogs be at my feet when I'm ironing! Urgh!
Well I will try to keep an eye on the nest while ironing.
Good day everyone! Hope you have a great Sunday.
It seems that my ex and his wife were at their river house and the tornado missed them by only about 1000 feet. It went right through the field where Rus flies his RC planes when he is down there. Glad that Rus and Rebecca were not there.
Good morning, everyone.
HAPPY FIRST BIRTHDAY GIANNI! Sun is shining just for you baby girl.
Have things on my "must do" list. BBL
Checking back in--guess no more of Trud and nothing of Belle today, eh? So good to see many checking in and letting us know they're okay !!!!
Seth's mom and dad picked him up at 10:15, leaving my granddog, Malcolm, with me while they join another family for hiking southeast of town. He's zonked out because they visited the Dog Park before bringing him over.
DanaMo, Hedgie says I missed a question you posed ? I don't find it, sorry.
Good morning again from a still very warm So Cal.
I hope everyone is OK back there. God be with you.
C(°ٿ°)D Jim
Hedgie, what an interesting way to grow up as the child of someone in the Foreign Service ! My dil's mom had that experience as her dad served in several embassies, mostly in Europe, I believe. Her brother followed dad's footsteps and is now retired. Interesting Nebraska family, last name Hughes.
Awww MeMa Jo Have a great time.
Sounds like you had an interesting childhood, Lynn.
Hmm, teenage girls with attitude. I do get to meet some of those.
Enjoy your trip, Jo.
Would like to think that Belle has gone off to bring Lib back.
I guess we are into the "April showers" part of the year now. Just hope we can get through it without anymore extreme weather conditions.
Must get some things done around here.
Just a quick good morning. We are off to the Carolina Raptor Center
today. Will let you all know this evening how it went. Hope you all have a wonderful sunny Sunday.
Anybody on my Facebook page check it out if you get a chance. I visited my local nest this morning to make sure it weathered yesterday's nastiness and the baby decided to get a little camera time!!!
you can try http://www.facebook.com/sturnmeyer
DanaMo, now I see the ? Hedgie referred to, sorry I missed it earlier. She's right, I live in Columbus, Ohio.
Blessed Palm Sunday to Everyone.
Looks like a pretty decent day---a little windy, tho.
Glad all are ok w/the bad weather we had. Hope Megan's place recovers soon from too much water!
Our local friends were outside of Roanoke all week. They had new house built & are in process of moving a little at a time. Their daughter & fam. also live there & they were babysitting for a few days. Called last night & they were away from any damage. They are 25-30 mi. from Roanoke.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO LOVELY, LITTLE GIANNI!!
Got stuff to do~~~~~
Boo, I can't get Scott's fb page.
Maybe there's a back door!
I got in, Loretta. Maybe you should just try again.
Okay...uploaded the photos to my gallery. You can see the baby on the last 5 photos in the gallery at http://raptors.vaphoto.com
Hope you can get into Scott's FB page, Loretta.
BBL. Have company.
Scott's FB page is Turnmeyer Studios, if I remember correctly. Haven't time to check it out just now. Haven't even looked at FB yet today. Trying to get invitations sent out for Animal Advocates open house.
No, my childhood was nothing special. Even tho' Daddy stayed with the State Department and AID for his entire career, we never had another overseas assignment because my mother refused to go. :(
Glad that friends and kin are all okay!
Granniekay, enjoy CRC!!!!!
Found it at the gallery easy Scott Cute cute photos.
Great pictures, Scott.
Yay, my grass is being mowed!!
GrannieKay have fun at CRC...will be awaiting a full report!
Nice, but breezy outside.
Enjoyed a nice brunch with GF and her hubby...she got me beach towels and a gift card for my birthday. Can't wait till she can come to the beach and we can enjoy some maggies!
OK, got laundry started...got to work on taxes now.
Hope the taxes go quickly, Paula, and that you find lots of deductions.
Granniekay, I definitely hope your trip to CRC is fun and productive. Let us know!
Breezy and sunny here. Nice day for grass mowing.
On Beakspeak what does the little blue letter i mean after some of the links? An is Decorah offline?
Oh Kay...I guess I will be driving through your area a couple of time a year starting in August. My son is going to University of Dayton this fall.
DanaMO - try this Decorah Eagles
Your bookmark may have gotten corrupted. We were having trouble yesterday as well. Mom is feeding them right now!
The lens must be wet at Decorah or the wind is messing up the digital picture because it's pretty blury. Those chicks are just adorable, though!
DanaMo - I don't think I did the link right.
Go to www.ustream.tv/decorah eagles and you'll see them there.
Sorry I screwed up the link!!
oops - no spaces in that. I'm sure you know that!
Sweet...now I better get back to the ironing.
Remember the picture I posted of the nest on my front door light? I posted another pic on my blog!!
http://paulasprints.blogspot.com/
I am working on my taxes....waiting for Turbo tax to install!
Home from church. The choir did their cantata....very beautiful, very moving.
Michael just called. They spent several hours in the emergency room last night. No one saw it happen but Zach some how hit his head on the kitchen counter. He now has 3 stitches in his eye eyebrow. Poor baby! Michael said he did very well but all the blood was very frightening to him.
What pretty blue eggs! I have not disturbed the mockingbird nest to see what is going on there. Jack did see the mockingbird chasing a squirrel this morning close to the nest.
What is really funny is the squirrel that is apparently nesting in one of our woodpecker bird houses. We see him peeking out occasionally. I will try to get a picture.
Sorry to hear about Zach, Lolly! Things happen so fast with kids, don't they?
Neat eggs in the nest, Paula!!
Just got a text from my friend, Tara. Her father has gotten worse. She is heading back to New Jersey now and they have decided to extubate him this evening. Please pray for her and her family.
Sharon - So sorry to hear that. Will pray for Tara's father and for strength for the family. God certainly gives you strength beyond understanding in tough times. I hope He does so for them.
Sharon - Does that mean they are taking him OFF a ventilator?
One of those eaglets at Decorah is walking away from Mom and the nest cup again! Ugh! That little one makes me nervous.....
Every once in a while he just gets up and walks a couple more steps twoard the edge of the nest. That is probably the one that grabs the fish for himself, too! An independent one, but it could be dangerous!
Now he is going the other way toward the right, which is much better....
I hope he's getting tired. They're so cute. They don't want to be under Mom AT ALL!!
Scott's pics were fantastic!
Paula, pretty eggs!!! Hope you have a different door to use!!
Oh, Lolly, poor Zach! Thankfully, head wounds heal quickly---and they always bleed copiously.
Shar---so osrry about Tara's Dad. Prayers for them all, as he makes the transition.
Yes, Linda...that does mean that they are removing the vent. :(
Still no e mail responses from Anne Marie or Geula.
We missed the Bear Report last night.
71° here, but wind makes it feel much cooler.
I have one lonely turkey hen out back. Out of corn...but she's scratching trying to find some.
Lynn - We frequently have turkeys in our yard around the bird feeders pecking for seeds!!
Last Sunday I looked out my office window and there were 22 of them walking across the yard. The only way I knew how many was because my husband took a picture!!
Sometimes we get the Toms with a half dozen or so hens. It's real interesting when there are two Toms. I love it when they open their feathers and strut their stuf!! LOL
SharonPrayers for Tara and her family
Quick visit.
Sharon, sorry about Tara's dad. Prayers for all.
Lolly, sorry about Zach's mishap. He will be just fine with all the love he gets from his granny.
Glad most everyone weathered the storm but I am sorry that Megan suffered so much damage. Hugs to Megan.
Jo, have a lovely few days at the B____ house. Will miss you.
Paula, good luck with taxes. Darth finished ours yesterday. Grumpy is as grumpy does.
Wishing all a lovely afternoon.
Paula, best wishes for a rapid recovery for Zach.
Glad the taxes are done, Judie. Good to know I was not the only one to wait until the last minute. Need to look once again at mine before sending them off.
It is always a great relief when I send them away so that I feel finished. They are still in the computer at this point.
Another little spell of catching up since Malcolm's family returned from the hike and took him home. Very windy this afternoon with swirls kind of like the dust devils in AZ. I took him out a couple of times, but not for long---didn't want one of us to get bonked on the head. The trees here are in desperate need of surgery so that Mother Nature isn't faced with doing it her way.
DanaMo, I recall our talking about your son's choice of schools. I imagine you come and go across I70, right ? I'd love to see you if you ever have time for a stopover--can meet you anywhere or have you come here. Wanda has raved about a good Asian Buffet at I70 and Wilson Rd. on the West side of Columbus. Perhaps we could lunch there ?? I'm issueing an open invitation to any of you who find yourselves traveling across that busy route. I'm only about 15 minutes north of I70 with easy access off of either I70 or Rt. 315. Plus, I will meet you anywhere along the way if you'll just give me a little notice !
Paula, that's a beautiful nest ! Don't you just love Robin's Egg Blue ?
Lolly, sorry to hear about Zach's mishap. Seems impossible to raise a boy without occasional stitches being required.
Sharon, my prayers are with Tara, the family and her dad as they face their farewell.
Hedgie, like you say, Guela is no doubt busy with Passover now, however I don't think we've heard from her since sometime during the first week of the month. Hope to soon ! Thanks for the Bear report. They certainly deal with many quandries as they work with the bears, don't they ?
Thanks everyone. I had knew she had a least one in the nest and was hoping I was high enough across the river to see a head soon, sure enough, there was the little one this morning.
I am figuring the power is holding up inspite of the strong winds...glad to hear it and it sounds you are all well from the storm. Hang in there and I hope it dries up and calms down soo. Good on you all for getting your taxes done before the dead line. In Canada we have two more weeks to go so I am starting my baking so I can get the taxes done!!!;););)!!!
Yup, it's a robin's nest on my front porch light. I will only be using the front door to go in and out, twice a day. Mama should be able to deal with it! I let Nugz out front, and saw Mama R fly away and raise cane...that's how I knew!
I'll use the back door and fence gate for yardwork.
Not sure when they were laid...if she was there last night when I came home, she either flew off before I made it to the door, and I didn't notice, or she stayed right there.
Got my taxes done as far as I can...have to file extensions for federal and state due to estate issues....not a problem, just have to wait for forms to complete. Extensions are signed, sealed and stamped!
Now onto other lovely chores, like laundry!
Osprey back on the nest at BWO...eggs must be coming soon.
Eatin time at BWE....littlest eaglets feathers look much more filled in today!
Jo, I know you have already left, but have a good couple of days at the beach!
TRAIN TRAIN TRAIN
Whoa, some big wind gusts at the nest!
Lynn, did you mention the other day about robin's tails moving when they chirp? I see it now!
Thx, pals! I was able to see Scott's wonderful pictures. That is one tall chick! First shot reminded me of ET!! LOL That tree makes a perfectly smooth background, almost like a marble pillar!
Well, racecar fans, I do not like this new type of racing---2 mates together, pushing one another.Jimmie Johnson just won by an inch over Clint Bowyer. Little E was behind Johnson. I like the good ol' days---every man for him self. This is all due to the aerodynamics of the newer car bodies. Two together are faster, at least at certain tracks.
Paula, your pics are wonderful~~~my favorite blue color eggs!! ☺
Did somebody say "TRAIN"?
Ah there's our Sharon ;)
Scott your Pictures are absolutely stunning breathtaking-- I love them all Keep up the great work you make the world smile when we look at your pictures Thanks
Linda, I almost always have a whole flock. That's why I don't understand just one by herself!
Love watching the little ones try to keep up with the adults!!
Still ironing...anything going on here? :)
Nature Nut...I'm not crazy about Johnson so I would like to have seen someone else pushed to the finish line!
wow Linda...22 turkeys!
@Kay...I would love to meet you sometime when I am traveling through. We will have to make arrangements when the time gets closer. I think classes start the 24th of August. We will be coming down a few days before that to get him set up and attend orientation FOR him. He will be returning from World Youth Day in Madrid Spain and will miss his orientation!
Second oldest is giving the flying labs some "ball" time! Yahoo! They need it.☺
Email from Geula. All is well. Here is what she says about her eagle:
The eagle has been fired but now it's vacation time at the study center so I won't know until the 27th if all is okay with him!
The waiting is driving me crazy!
Lynn, big sigh of relief, so glad Guela is doin' fine ! At least she knows how much we care. Thanks !
DanaMo, I'll look forward to meeting you in person ! What an exciting year for that young man ! How nice that you'll get all his orientation details for him.
Loretta, I'm in complete agreement on the "pushing" thing in Nascar. It's "let's go racing" not "let's go pushing" ! Boo Hiss on the Johnson win today and the Busch win yesterday !!!!
Geula HAS been lurking and knows all that is /has been happening.
Yep, Paula, I noticed the robin tail twicthing!!
Kay, I'll visit if I go to St. Louis!! I think it's usually lunchtime when I hit Columbus!
I talked to Tara for about 30 minutes. Traffic was moving really slow for her for a while but cleared back up. She is on I95 going by DC. Still has a pretty long trip ahead of her, about 200 miles.
Lynn, Whoopie ! Hope you go to St. Louis soon and often !!!!!
So cute one of the Decorah eaglets is trying to eat something right on the edge of the bowl Wow whats all the noise in the background there besides wind Construction???
Sharon, it's too bad Tara had to make this trip on Sunday when so many are heading home after the weekend. Praying for her safety !
Loretta, I think if they had had one more lap, Jr. might have stopped pushing Johnson and taken the lead and won it!!! The new cars have changed the whole dynamics and it's not racing the way it used to be, for sure---and I don't like it, either!
Weather at Maine nest has calmed down now...eagle incubating, looks brighter there now.
Sharon, so sorry to hear about Tara's Dad.
LOL......KayIM---I don't go to St. L often!!! Usually once a year, but did not go this past year. I'm sure I'll have to make a trip this year. My Mom and sis live outside the city. Mom is almost 92.
Hi, Everyone,
Back home now after going to the dog park. Gave Emma a bath after we got home. She was a VERY good girl! (It figures--she LOVES water!) She's dry now, after a good towel drying. It's warm here today, but not hot. Perfect!
Got some more transcription done. Had to go get more ink for my printer so I could print what I'd done.
We got our taxes done about a week ago, and have already received both the State and Federal refunds!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY, GIANNI!!!!!!
Sharon, am praying for Tara, her dad, and the whole family.
Glad that everyone seems to be OK after all the crazy weather yesterday!
I fell asleep in front of the TV with Emma again last night.
Lynn, so sorry to hear of your s----- bite! EEeeewww!!!! I would have freaked out, too! Hope it's not causing you any problems.
Had to chuckle--Emma's fur on her ears, on top of her back, and on her tail is SOOOOO wavy/curly after her bath! I probably should have dried her with the hair dryer, but decided not to, since it's so warm today. She's got Marcel waves! :o]
Lynn, what a heritage ! No one on either side of my famly has ever lived that long. Will count on your stopping for lunch, if not the night, either coming or going !
Andrea, that's an impressively speedy tax filing and return ! I mailed mine in on the 31st of March and haven't found any checks in my mailbox yet. :o( Hope that doesn't mean an audit ! Can't imagine it with my small potatoes financial picture.
Loretta and Lynn I'm with you Don't like the new form of racing. I seriously wonder how the drivers "really" feel about it themselves.
One of the females is at the Maine nest, eating. Dad flew off.
Both Jordan Lake eaglets have fledged last week...they were both in the nest yesterday...just saw one eating supper on the nest :)
There is a NEW THREAD!
Took longer than forecast, but the high winds have arrived in force. Already have lost 2 huge limbs. Wish I had a helmet.....still have to take trash out to the road!
Glo.....I think most of the drivers DON'T like it, but they have basically been told "like it or leave it"........you know....Stifle, Edith!!! It's not much of an individual talent competition anymore.
KayIM...Mom's Mother lived to 96, and her Dad to 94 (my Grams and Pop). We will hook up for a lunch---or whatever is appropriate for the time I get there!! I drive it straight through.....usually 14 hrs.

Ms Bookworm...dog park sounds awesome. Wish we had one, my labs would love to be able to have a big space to run and play. One with a pond would be really nice. I don't let them in my pool.
Well that was brief.
