Hello everyone. I am working the earlier shift today, get off at 3 and then heading to Claytor Lake to spend the weekend with - Andrew, Kelsey, Kelsey's mother Alice, Becky, Mattie, Justin, Sissy, Tom and T-Bird. Gonna be a great weekend!!!
Beverly and Tom are taking their popup camper down for some of us to stay in. They have a camping spot we can rent for the weekend that is right across from the bathhouse.
Hello WANDA and SHARON. Guess I missed MARGY. Oh well, we all missed Truder and Belle this morning, but had a fun time.
Wanda, what's up with Rocky?
Sharon, I hope you all have the most wonderful time at the lake. It sounds like a lot of fun. Glad T-Bird and Buddy are going too! Take care of yourself and your iron levels. ♥
Thanks for the new thread, Steve! Wasn't expecting it, so I'll have to go back and catch up on the last one.
Thank you Steve for the new thread and Margy for the holler.
Lynn, so glad Liesl is recovering and eating well.
Paula, congratulations on your new friend and companion Nick. He is absolutely handsome.
Hi Linda. Welcome back. Glad your brother is home but sorry he is still recovering and hope your mom will improve soon.
Kay, will you share your connection to Rutgers? Darth's college. Grew up in New Brunswick.
Shirley, sorry Hunter's team lost. Also, hope Kathryn is feeling better.
Hi Sharon. Wow, what a fantastic family weekend you all have planned. Enjoy!
Lazy day for me. Watching the trial.
Kennedy Center tonight. Latest iteration of Wicked. Just saw that not a year or so ago. Have another play next Friday called "Next to Normal" that I know nothing about. Need to do some research.
Okay, that's my big news for the day. Don't know how I could be boring if I tried.
Decorah branches are MT. New bear update on Shadow's age. Can barely see eaglets at NBG. Phoebe's babes are growing so quickly.
Ladies ladies a chatty day again you know I will never get caught up Just got back from taking Jordyn to the Suncoast Seabird Sanctuary WOW did they have lots of VULTURES LORETTA I took some pic and video Funny the blue jays let you pet their tummys when they are on the side of the cage and the woodpecker I got to touch is belly so I guess since they are in enclosures and that is why they are so friendly Gonna put Jorydn down for a nap BBL
Good afternoon JUDIE - you've already seen Wicked or I would tell you how great it's supposed to be! Trial break?
LYNN - Delta 2 link is very cute. Too funny. Take a look you won't believe it. Sounds like a fun nest up there.
PAULA - Nick is the one. He already has all our hearts. I already have dibbs on the first "guest biscuit." ♥
PA-LINDA - just can't tell you how glad I am that you're back. You were missed. We should all feel the love every time we're here. Prayers for your brother and mother. How's your garden of flowers?
OK - off for a fast -LOL, fast- nap. Actually have help coming over this afternoon to get some big projects done!!!! Hip hip hooray!
We have had a phoebe nest way up high on top of our spot lights in the back of the house. Unfortunately we couldn't see much because it was two stories up. We watched the Mom and Dad for weeks and then heard the babies......and then came the poop shoots onto the deck!! They fledged while I was away, but Dennis got a great shot of one baby that fledged before the others and literally spent 24+ hours on our clothes line because he must have been fearful of flying further.
Mom would come and feed the baby there and the next day they were gone, the nest was quiet and no more poop shoots!!
When I went to bed last night it was still 71°. It is now 76°....breezy....humidity is gone! But so is sun...I think rain is a possibility this afternoon/evening.
I posted a short video of the Vulture at the Suncoast Seabird Sanctuary we went to this am VULTURES in Captivity I thought of Nature Nut Loretta when I saw them We are getting some storms so I should power down but I want to upload video to FB and picture Oh well better be safe than sorry
Good Afternoon ! Seeing PALYNN-LINDA back makes it a doubly good afternoon ! Continueing to pray for your brother and mom. Hope you can now get some deep restorative sleep !
PAULA, Nick has such a sweet expression--I just know he's going to be a loving and fun loving guy !
LYNN, that little Liesl is amazing ! She's just taking it all in stride ! Enjoyed the look at Delta2. Do you know how that little bear wound up in the nest ?
JUDIE, my son is an Anthropologist at Rutgers and his wife is a Political Scientist there. They moved to Highland Park, right next door to New Brunswick, 12 years ago. I love visiting them there. New Jersey often gets a bad rap in the press, but is a beautiful State. Does Darth still have family there ?
Kay, I'm sure mom or pop eagle brought the teddy in! Not the first time....one year, there was a blue one in a nest out there somewhere, if I remember correctly!
KAY - What a small world! I have a neighbor who I believe is the head of the Political Science Department at Rutgers! They go back and forth at times during the year, but try to spend their summers here in PA.
I've only met her once, and will have to ask my other neighbor what her name is.
Kay and Judie, I have a cousin who lives at Montclair, New Jersey and studied cultural anthropology at Rutgers. I have not seen her for many years, but recently connected with her on Facebook. Her name is Virginia Cornue.
PA LINDA, I'm sure it feels like you've missed a lot when you can see how many posts we've racked up since you were with us last. You'll soon catch up and if we refer to something you don't understand, just speak up and we'll bring you up to speed in a hurry !
Wow, I wish I was a member of the Southern Delegation this weekend ! They are going to have a blast !!!
LORI, glad to hear you have help coming in ! I'm sure it's going to feel great to see progress being made !
The cam is going a bit crazy, perhaps a storm rolling in ?
Lynn, I am thinking I would be in Mburg around 1:45-2pm or so...then it looks to be another 45min to an hour to get there...I don't have directions yet.
Darth only has an aging aunt and uncle who moved from Carteret(sp) to Whiting. There are some cousins but they don't communicate with anyone. I think Darth's godmother lived in Highland Park.
The blue teddy was about three years ago, I think.
Hi JudyE - glad you had fun again today with Jordyn. Assume she's feeling much better.
Kay, my sister's hubby is from Carteret....is that anywhere near New Brunswick? Probably not----it is across the river from the NY area where the 9-11 debris was taken for sorting.
Kay - I sent an email to my friend in our neighborhood who introduced us to the lady that is a department head at Rutgers. When I get a response, I'll ask you if your son or daughter-in-law knows her.
Isn't it amazing how often these "small world, isn't it ?" things pop up ? 6 degrees of separation theory would say that many of us are related and just don't know it ! ☺
PA LINDA, I'd love to have your neighbors name to run by DIL, Beth. I've never heard her say a derogatory word about the dept. Chair, so imagine she is well liked.
SHIRLEY, we have friends who live in Montclair. He is a Rutgers biologist who works out of one of a branch campus up that way. He was Julie and Hugh's matchmaker when in grad school at Ohio State ! Cultural Anthro is exactly my son's field of expertise. I'm so proud of him. He's currently acting dept. Chair, but is not vying for that position. Too much B.S. goes with it and he just wants to be a dedicated prof, researcher and author. How long ago did your cousin go there ?
LYNN, you'll note that JUDIE just referred to Cateret in a post. I'm not familiar with that town, but the kids live about 40 miles south of NYC, so imagine it's about that to Cateret. My DIL's office is located on a high hill at Rutger's and she could see the towers from there on that fateful day.
LINDA, just Googled Rutgers main campus PolySci dept.. The department chair is Cynthia Daniels. If that's the name your friend comes up with there is no doubt that my kids know her.
KAY - That doesn't sound like her name. Maybe it was another department or she has retired. I believe her husband is jewish, so maybe a jewish last name??
Sounds like we could have a NJ get together if we all just decided to converge on our NJ kith n' kin at the same time !☺
Momster, "mariadangeloart" lives in Jersey. Hey, MARIA, how about checking in with us--we miss you and your beautiful horse paintings ! How close are you to all these NJ towns being mentioned ?
Judie, isn't that something that Darth has kin from Carteret, too? Small world! My BIL was a cop there after military service...but then went to work for GM in Linden.
SHIRLEY, Lee was born in 1961, so she preceded him at Rutgers by quite a few years.☺
PAULA, Lawrenceville is between Princeton and Trenton. I'm going to guess it's about 80 miles SSW of the town Lee lives in. Probably on the same train line he's on as it runs from The City into NJ and ends up in Trenton. Rider is one of those small little college jewels that few people are familiar with.
LOL, SHIRLEY ! I was still looking at my precious little boy and wondering what kind of adult he'd be and what profession he'd go into. Wouldn't have dreamed of Anthro and Rutgers in a thousand years !
Just received text from son in law. Becky has been in recovery for hour or so. They will keep her 1 more night and maybe 2 to wait on test results. Hoping the whole family can still make the trip to SC on Tues. If not I guess the plan is for Eric and Elia to go. Thanks for prayers. Please continue them.
News Flash!!! Called Park about something, and my friend Joyce said campers at our one site next to the River said they saw a common loon!!!Greg K. went out to check & it was there & seemed friendly!???? BBL P.S. Osprey cam should be working...
SC is planned vacation trip with plane tickets all purchased etc. I had started to put contingency plans in place if I had to go to AZ for a few days. VERY hard with Dex to pull off BUT I was not going to leave her there alone after surgery either so. BUT sounding like they will go and hopefully she will take it easy. Another surgery in 3 to 4 weeks. long story. prayers please.
Missed my doctors appointment this morning because I didn't realize it was Friday! Geez, I love summer, but I never know what day it is when I'm not working!
I can't get the cam up, is there a problem? Or is it my computer?
This just gets weirder and weirder. Darth has a cousin who lives in Lawrenceville - used to live in Princeton. Carteret is maybe 15-10 minutes from New Brunswick.
Prayers for Glo's Becky.
Congratulations for Lowreeda's park having a loon. You must be beyond excited.
Sad about Peter Falk. Always really enjoyed Columbo.
Well, must move along to get some food for us and then be ready to leave at 6:30.
Have fun everyone and please try to obey the speed limit so I can catch up later.
Paula, though you know I'm jealous, please have a good time and some fun with the work at your haven.
PA Lynn, welcome back and continued prayers for you and your family. At first I thought your avatar was a Stargazer Lily. They look similar in pictures.
Wanda, haven't been able to get an email to you. Did you change your addy? Please contact me.
PAULA, aha, my memory was certainly flawed as I was placing Lawrenceville much closer to Trenton. I'm sure I've been there on the way to someplace or other as it's just straight down Hiway 1 from Highland Park. Apparently all the NJ locations mentioned are in very close proximity to each other. Interesting !
Michael and my eldest, Eileen, would have a lot in common. Her undergrad degree was in Sociology and she's now a clinical psychologist. She's spent most of her career working with the same kind of people Michael is serving.
OK I am bak had a GREAT YOGA PRACTICE and we arew having SUN SHOWERS...Mostly a very grsy wet day with thunder and then all of a sudden the sun is out and people stop in the street and put their faces up to the sun...it is a curious view I observed several times walking to and from my car...
The live feed is out here but the still cam is still on...
KAY - My neighbor emailed me and said the lady's name I was talking to you about is Kim Shienbaum and she is the chair of the Polital Science Dept at Rutgers. She didn't mention which campus, though.
She asked your son's and his wife names and would mention them to Kim if they are at the same campus. She said they probably know each other! Sue (my neighbor) said Kim and her husband just returned from Greece and she is having breakfast with them next Friday morning!
It would be neat if they knew one another wouldn't it? Kim and her husband are much older than your son would be, I'm sure, but Kim is so very nice.
Posted on wrong thread! We are in Colorado. See snow on the peaks. Saw a hwy sign, not for deer, but beat. Maybe I should practice" It's me bear". LOL. Also, rv park has warning about bears!
Prayers for Glo's daughter Becky for kidney stone surgery.
Sharon almost sounds like a "family reunion" with so many. Glad all are at the lake having fun. Thelma too, oh goodie..Has Buddy every gone in the water?
PA Linda love the clematis. I have a dark purple and a light purple with a dark purple stip in each pedal.
Hurrah Lolly is in Colorado seeing signs for BEARS...LOL...So long as you do not say ," Here Bear" so they would not come towards you looking for food...LOL...
I thought the only "blue teddy bear" was at the Osprey Site in Conn. Milford. It was 2006 or 2007...a big storm came up and blew poor teddy right out of the nest.
LOLLY I hope you see a bear that would be so great I only have seen one bear and it was a young one crossing the road on the road while we were driving in Shenandoah Valley I got a pic of it I hope you have a great time
PA LYNN LINDA I have some video of the recent visit of our eagles on my Nest Video Blog they are all short in lenght also and don't forget to check out the EM photo album and once again Welcome Home
Wouldn't you all just fall over if I told you the Dinosaur brought the live feed up? Psyyyyche.....it did not... I have the same as all of you... ye ole spinning arrow
Remember that refresh trick on the Still Cam later if we don't get live action back... wait five seconds after the 30-second rollover, hit refresh, and see what happens!
Read with interest what you said Shirley about not being allowed to smile for ID pictures..... DMV lady told me, this is so that digital impressions can be obtained better in a time of need for that sort of thing probably some sort of crime-solving or other technique....
I KID YOU NOT: I WAS THE LAST CUSTOMER FOR PHOTO ID AT DMV... PICTURE TAKEN, AND CAMERA BROKE!
Had to go another work station, job completed, I was allowed to smile. Was very cute, the technician, says "Think Joyful Thoughts" that was Easy ! xoxo ☺
Also noticed a mass ant exodus on the concrete patio this morning when leaving for work...no food crumbs or anything around....think they all bailed out of the tomato plant after treatment last night ☺ Too funny! They are all gone now
time to go check the crops and flowers be back in a little while
Happy Trails to Paula....Oh that trip to Capon Bridge, is a Snap! And a pretty one at that, mostly four-lane divided highway, two going each way LOL Straight on Rt 50 from Winchester....right off I-81 then...not sure where you end up after that ☺ But I DO KNOW WHO you will see☺ Good Old Nick... xoxo back in a bit xoxo
Oh so NEAT!! Loretta a loon at Pax Park. Well if Greg needs to know for next year about how to fix up a ramp so they can lay their eggs. Larry's Loon site will give him an idea ( :
Glo will continue Prayers in reference to that other surgery in 3 or 4 weeks. Keep us informed on the blog...please. Prayers the SC trip works out.
Safe travel prayers for Paula heading for Beach House. Workers this weekend and much food!!!!!! Oh Paula gets to see Nick in person. Next week at the Rescue.
Yes for many years I too enjoyed Columbo. Sad as they pass on.
I already gave Lolly and Jack & family safe travels but doesn't hurt to say it again. They are already in Colorado!!!
REMEMBER LOLLY AS THOUGH WITH LILY & HOPE SAID: "IT'S ME BEAR"....
Hi Diann I know my brain is in a different gear than I need it to be. Slow and getting slower lol
Hoda did you see a rainbow?
I'm getting dizzy...Kay and Paula and Judie/Darth and others connecting and all might know same people in another town. That is neat !! Kay's neighbor--small world.
Hi Margy you smiled on your license hee hee What you scared all the ants away!!!
Oh Hoda I bet it was a beautiful sitting over the lake and a rainbow....awwwww wished I could have seen it. I love hearing you talk about the area you live in. Hugs
Thanks WV_GAL DANA. Nelson is a littl town of 10 thousand people, this includes the surrounding areas.We are surrounded by mountains and we hug the shores of a huge lake,100 miles long.Forests all around us and we share with black bears and grizzlies. With deer and elk and moose. There are eagles and osprey and many little birds. The climate allows for lush forests and beautiful gardens. The parks here are stunning.I would like it too if you could see this place.I have not visited West Virginia but from the pictures I see I think you are surrounded with Beauty and Grace...Breath taking photographs I have see of your State.
Outdoor Channel has posted now about the cam being down with no ETA for its resolution :( oh well, guess my computer will not hang up like it does when I watch live feed
OH HODA I'm going to get you for that That is so addicting I had played it before and hadn't realized that hours have gone by and now it shows back up to haunt me LOL
I have been in every state but Alaska, Hawaii and Michigan with the thanks of my parents and my best friends June and Terry LM until the chime of my email
I bought a wooden map of the states and took it to summer school one year. I was teaching students who were having trouble with SOL testing. Many of them had lots of trouble finding the locations of the states. I recall someone trying to put Washington state where Washington DC is.
I am sure it helps a lot if you have actually visited the states.
No haven't found one yet that will fit under the recliner. Recliner is at the end of a sectional. It has a bar that lays on floor. If I put on lap it hurts my legs.
I got to the ice cream case and MY I/C was all out! SO disappointed! Went around the end of the aisle---freezer there HAD it! SO relieved. Oh, ye of little faith!! Whew. Haven't had any in a couple of weeks---cravings have been a bear!!
Carolyn was too cute today, Lynn When four of us were leaving at 4 pm she said since I have been a good girl today, can I leave at 4 also? Wish we could have granted that wish ☺
Lori: You asked about Rocky Did you see the answer on the old thread? Jill, Wanda's granddaughtger... who rescued him a few years back lives at her fire station now. dog, not allowed there
Kay I had to go the RSPB sites and reload the cams for Goshawk, and Loch Garten... not sure what that was all about will check on little Miss Goshawk in the morning read, that she has been branching a lot, might be out of the coop by now already
Shirley: How is Luna these days? The avatar of Hunter, is definitely one of my all-time favorites of all the ones you have placed on here ☺ An Championship Smile !
Diann When you come back: Moon is on the wane now, "rises" sometime overnight in the East....and moves across the sky towards the West...was pretty much straight up when I left for work this morning and it will continue to get smaller So, in a little while we can start watching it Wax again starting in the West
ISS, from tonight thru July 1 herebouts, very late flyovers... but all before midnight Hope you can see some of all this!
Oh my heavens SHIRLEY I click on "laptop trays link in blue you put at comment 8:23pm". At the 17th tray on the left of page is my "STOLEN CAMERA"!!!!!!! Cannon PowerShot SX 210 sniffle sniffle
Hi, all! I am moving to Montana at the end of this week - driving cross country, taking in the sites, moving van taking responsibility for possessions - except my cats who will be riding with me!! My sister lives in Hagerstown so I want to take a side trip to the nest. Can someone e-mail (profile or momster page) the directions and tips and hints as to the best way to approach the area? It will just be a drive by with my camera ready, but I really don't expect to see Belle as it won't be early a.m. or late evening. BUT I WILL see the sycamore and nest! Thanks, guys!
when the still cam goes black, you can wait 5 seconds, hit refresh and it comes back up !
Irene: Wow fast work! I am sure one of the experts will provide good driving directions, and tips and hints.... I am working dayshift Friday and Saturday....might not be able to see you ! Keep us posted on your itinerary It's not too complicated...but it will depend on which direction you are coming from, before we start on it.
FuzzleMa where in Montana? There will be two of us close to the 49th parallel on the western part of the continent? This is GREAT...when everyone else has signed off back east we can keep the blog going...LOL
SHIRLEY I actually need something that will be like a table with legs. To keep laptop off my knees. Hard to find due to that bar under couch. Been searching for awhile very hard to find what I need.
If I don't get snagged for an extra shift, I could meet you somewhere and lead you right to it ! We'll see what you say about the whens and wheres of your travels, specifically...
I worked at a law firm in Washington years ago Many of their clients were Indians with Land Claims Included both the Kalispel tribes, and the Kootenai and many many others...
we had brush fire today along power lines, took out 3,000 customers when the power line was affected, but not sure which came first, the afftected power line, or the brush fire ! Falling Waters area
on the crime note: Big theft items these days: Metal! Air conditioners, window and central units copper wire of any kind grates, manhole covers AND, today, three catalytic converters taken out of vans used for the Developmentally Disabled.... Not Nice... Some arrests have been made, though Police taking some bites out of Crime !
There are quite a few air conditioner and brass from the fire stations theft around here so sad but when they go to sell it they all have been busted that is too funny it think
Irene, that's really fast work! It would take me a month to pack and plan all of that! Sure hope you have housing ready out there for you!!! Fri. or Sat. would work for me to hook up, too. If you want to do that, let me and Margy know, and we'll pick a meeting spot right off the interstate. I put directions here for you a few days ago! TO start, from Hagerstown: I-81 South appx.20 miles to Exit 16 East (which is Rt. 9). We can hook up at the Comfort Inn just up the eroad a little ways. If you want to goo oall the way to the nest on your own, holler and I'll give you the rest of the directions!!
OMG Fuzzle.......I love Kalispell....more importantly I love the Big Mountain!! We used to ski there every year from 1995 - 2003! Haven't had the chance to go back since then, but hope to in the coming year or two.
We have a good friend who retired and moved to Columbia Falls, which is about a half hour or so from Kalispell!!
Beautiful country up there and so close to the Glacier National Park....another beautiful area.
Safe and happy travels!! I'm jealous! That is where we wanted to move when we left FL, but decided to stay on the east coast closer to family!
Margy, I think Bill said 3 air conditioning units have been stolen from backside of Eagle Plaza.....but he has good security cams on lot. SP have been reviewing the footage!
And fog.....lots of low lying fog in Kalispell in the winter!
Lots of skiers don't like it as much as Colorado because the sun isn't out as much. We liked it because back then the crowds were not nearly as bad there as when we used to go to the ski resorts in CO!
Oh I did - it was on the early a.m. news that day (which I have on if I wake up and then snooze thru) - then I followed a link someone put here on the blog or possibly momster mail? I have been visiting sporadically for the past weeks since I began packing - go right to the nest, but now it's down! BOO!!!!
I don't think you have to be on facebook to view this I think it is a public one they have a couple videos of sassy in Ca fledgling so cute if you can see I can down load link let me know FACEBOOK EAGLE CAM ADDICT PAGE If you can't see this I will go to youtube just let me know OK LM

Going to run errands see ya later.
Hello everyone. I am working the earlier shift today, get off at 3 and then heading to Claytor Lake to spend the weekend with - Andrew, Kelsey, Kelsey's mother Alice, Becky, Mattie, Justin, Sissy, Tom and T-Bird. Gonna be a great weekend!!!
Sharon, sounds like a great,fun weekend, but where will you all stay?
Beverly and Tom are taking their popup camper down for some of us to stay in. They have a camping spot we can rent for the weekend that is right across from the bathhouse.
Hello WANDA and SHARON. Guess I missed MARGY. Oh well, we all missed Truder and Belle this morning, but had a fun time.
Wanda, what's up with Rocky?
Sharon, I hope you all have the most wonderful time at the lake. It sounds like a lot of fun. Glad T-Bird and Buddy are going too! Take care of yourself and your iron levels. ♥
Thanks for the new thread, Steve! Wasn't expecting it, so I'll have to go back and catch up on the last one.
Thanks, MArgy.
WCV IS having problems with the cam---it's not us! They are working on it.
Need to add Glo's daughter Becky to prayer list. She had emergency surgery this morning for kidney stones. I'm sure Glo is worried sick.
Delta 2 nest----one juvie apparently took a tumble---is in rehab. Scroll to bottom of this page and see what the other one has!
Delta2
Sure, Paula! What time do you want to head up??
Not Romney, DanaWV---Capon Bridge.
WANDA, LYNN & MARGY - Thanks for the "Welcome Back" messages. I'm glad to be back.
Lynn - My flower avatar is actually clematis! They just climb up over the deck railing every year and are just beautiful!!
Good early afternoon to everyone.
Thank you Steve for the new thread and Margy for the holler.
Lynn, so glad Liesl is recovering and eating well.
Paula, congratulations on your new friend and companion Nick. He is absolutely handsome.
Hi Linda. Welcome back. Glad your brother is home but sorry he is still recovering and hope your mom will improve soon.
Kay, will you share your connection to Rutgers? Darth's college. Grew up in New Brunswick.
Shirley, sorry Hunter's team lost. Also, hope Kathryn is feeling better.
Hi Sharon. Wow, what a fantastic family weekend you all have planned. Enjoy!
Lazy day for me. Watching the trial.
Kennedy Center tonight. Latest iteration of Wicked. Just saw that not a year or so ago. Have another play next Friday called "Next to Normal" that I know nothing about. Need to do some research.
Okay, that's my big news for the day. Don't know how I could be boring if I tried.
Decorah branches are MT. New bear update on Shadow's age. Can barely see eaglets at NBG. Phoebe's babes are growing so quickly.
Ladies ladies a chatty day again you know I will never get caught up Just got back from taking Jordyn to the Suncoast Seabird Sanctuary WOW did they have lots of VULTURES LORETTA I took some pic and video Funny the blue jays let you pet their tummys when they are on the side of the cage and the woodpecker I got to touch is belly so I guess since they are in enclosures and that is why they are so friendly Gonna put Jorydn down for a nap BBL
Good morning! Almost to Amarillo! My tush is numb! :). Who is nick? Paula's new love?
All caught up now. YAY!
Good afternoon JUDIE - you've already seen Wicked or I would tell you how great it's supposed to be! Trial break?
LYNN - Delta 2 link is very cute. Too funny. Take a look you won't believe it. Sounds like a fun nest up there.
PAULA - Nick is the one. He already has all our hearts. I already have dibbs on the first "guest biscuit." ♥
PA-LINDA - just can't tell you how glad I am that you're back. You were missed. We should all feel the love every time we're here. Prayers for your brother and mother. How's your garden of flowers?
OK - off for a fast -LOL, fast- nap. Actually have help coming over this afternoon to get some big projects done!!!! Hip hip hooray!
Judie - Thanks!!
A quiet day is often times a GREAT day!!
We have had a phoebe nest way up high on top of our spot lights in the back of the house. Unfortunately we couldn't see much because it was two stories up. We watched the Mom and Dad for weeks and then heard the babies......and then came the poop shoots onto the deck!! They fledged while I was away, but Dennis got a great shot of one baby that fledged before the others and literally spent 24+ hours on our clothes line because he must have been fearful of flying further.
Mom would come and feed the baby there and the next day they were gone, the nest was quiet and no more poop shoots!!
When I went to bed last night it was still 71°. It is now 76°....breezy....humidity is gone! But so is sun...I think rain is a possibility this afternoon/evening.
Lori - Thanks again. I, likewise, can't tell you how happy I am to be back where I feel so loved!!! ♥♥♥
Hey, Lolly! Tell Jack to pull over so you can do a walk-about!
Has Laurel passed you yet?
Nick is going to be Paula's new canine companion!
Thanks, Linda.....I don't know a lot about flowers--no green thumbs attached to my hands!
Lori, the Wicked we saw previously was outstanding and, I believe, headed for Broadway. I think this is a touring company.
Linda, so cool to have a Phoebe and babes at your house. We have tons of trees but the nests are so tiny I could never spot one.
Speaking of Phoebe, Jim usually checks in with a report. Hope he's doing okay.
Okay, really headed downstairs. Need food (not calories but food). I guess I'll have to have a glass of water.
Bye
I posted a short video of the Vulture at the Suncoast Seabird Sanctuary we went to this am
VULTURES in Captivity I thought of Nature Nut Loretta when I saw them We are getting some storms so I should power down but I want to upload video to FB and picture Oh well better be safe than sorry
Good Afternoon ! Seeing PALYNN-LINDA back makes it a doubly good afternoon ! Continueing to pray for your brother and mom. Hope you can now get some deep restorative sleep !
PAULA, Nick has such a sweet expression--I just know he's going to be a loving and fun loving guy !
LYNN, that little Liesl is amazing ! She's just taking it all in stride ! Enjoyed the look at Delta2. Do you know how that little bear wound up in the nest ?
Hi KAY!! It's great to be back!
I'm sure I missed a lot, but am happy to be able to reconnect with you, my special friends here again!
JUDIE, my son is an Anthropologist at Rutgers and his wife is a Political Scientist there. They moved to Highland Park, right next door to New Brunswick, 12 years ago. I love visiting them there. New Jersey often gets a bad rap in the press, but is a beautiful State. Does Darth still have family there ?
Kay, I'm sure mom or pop eagle brought the teddy in! Not the first time....one year, there was a blue one in a nest out there somewhere, if I remember correctly!
KAY - What a small world! I have a neighbor who I believe is the head of the Political Science Department at Rutgers! They go back and forth at times during the year, but try to spend their summers here in PA.
I've only met her once, and will have to ask my other neighbor what her name is.
Little osprey-ettes are chirping like crazy at Hoda's cam!!!
Kay and Judie, I have a cousin who lives at Montclair, New Jersey and studied cultural anthropology at Rutgers. I have not seen her for many years, but recently connected with her on Facebook. Her name is Virginia Cornue.
PA LINDA, I'm sure it feels like you've missed a lot when you can see how many posts we've racked up since you were with us last. You'll soon catch up and if we refer to something you don't understand, just speak up and we'll bring you up to speed in a hurry !
Wow, I wish I was a member of the Southern Delegation this weekend ! They are going to have a blast !!!
LORI, glad to hear you have help coming in ! I'm sure it's going to feel great to see progress being made !
The cam is going a bit crazy, perhaps a storm rolling in ?
Lynn, I am thinking I would be in Mburg around 1:45-2pm or so...then it looks to be another 45min to an hour to get there...I don't have directions yet.
Sharon, sounds like quite a crew at the lake...have fun!!
Darth only has an aging aunt and uncle who moved from Carteret(sp) to Whiting. There are some cousins but they don't communicate with anyone. I think Darth's godmother lived in Highland Park.
The blue teddy was about three years ago, I think.
Hi JudyE - glad you had fun again today with Jordyn. Assume she's feeling much better.
BTTT - back to the trial.
Kay, my sister's hubby is from Carteret....is that anywhere near New Brunswick? Probably not----it is across the river from the NY area where the 9-11 debris was taken for sorting.
Kay - I sent an email to my friend in our neighborhood who introduced us to the lady that is a department head at Rutgers. When I get a response, I'll ask you if your son or daughter-in-law knows her.
Isn't it amazing how often these "small world, isn't it ?" things pop up ? 6 degrees of separation theory would say that many of us are related and just don't know it ! ☺
PA LINDA, I'd love to have your neighbors name to run by DIL, Beth.
I've never heard her say a derogatory word about the dept. Chair, so imagine she is well liked.
SHIRLEY, we have friends who live in Montclair. He is a Rutgers biologist who works out of one of a branch campus up that way. He was Julie and Hugh's matchmaker when in grad school at Ohio State ! Cultural Anthro is exactly my son's field of expertise. I'm so proud of him. He's currently acting dept. Chair, but is not vying for that position. Too much B.S. goes with it and he just wants to be a dedicated prof, researcher and author. How long ago did your cousin go there ?
LYNN, you'll note that JUDIE just referred to Cateret in a post. I'm not familiar with that town, but the kids live about 40 miles south of NYC, so imagine it's about that to Cateret. My DIL's office is located on a high hill at Rutger's and she could see the towers from there on that fateful day.
LINDA, just Googled Rutgers main campus PolySci dept.. The department chair is Cynthia Daniels. If that's the name your friend comes up with there is no doubt that my kids know her.
Well, my son is right around that area too...went to Rider, living now in Lawrenceville!
KAY - That doesn't sound like her name. Maybe it was another department or she has retired. I believe her husband is jewish, so maybe a jewish last name??
**********************
GOOD MORNING,
EVERYONE ...
FOLLOWED BY AN
OUTSTANDING
WEEKEND.
**********************
C(°Ù¿°)D Jim
Sounds like we could have a NJ get together if we all just decided to converge on our NJ kith n' kin at the same time !☺
Momster, "mariadangeloart" lives in Jersey. Hey, MARIA, how about checking in with us--we miss you and your beautiful horse paintings ! How close are you to all these NJ towns being mentioned ?
LINDA, perhaps she's at a branch campus. There is an Elizabeth Hull listed as Chair of that dept. on the Newark campus.
Good afternoon, Jim ! Wishing you an outstanding weekend as well !
Virginia probably went there in the 1960s. She is a little younger than I am.
Paula, that sounds great. Want me to do the directions??
Judie, isn't that something that Darth has kin from Carteret, too? Small world! My BIL was a cop there after military service...but then went to work for GM in Linden.
Wow, lots of Joisee connections!
Hi, Jim! How's tricks? Hope you are over your cold, and feeling chipper!!! Sure wish you would put a pic up as an avatar so our newbies can SEE you!!!
KAY - I'm not sure, but will let you know when I get an answer from the friend that had us over that night!! Now it is bugging me!
SHIRLEY, Lee was born in 1961, so she preceded him at Rutgers by quite a few years.☺
PAULA, Lawrenceville is between Princeton and Trenton. I'm going to guess it's about 80 miles SSW of the town Lee lives in. Probably on the same train line he's on as it runs from The City into NJ and ends up in Trenton. Rider is one of those small little college jewels that few people are familiar with.
I would say, Kay. He would have been a toddler when she was there.
PAULA, meant to ask, what was your son's major there ?
Or maybe in elementary school.
LOL, SHIRLEY ! I was still looking at my precious little boy and wondering what kind of adult he'd be and what profession he'd go into. Wouldn't have dreamed of Anthro and Rutgers in a thousand years !
Hey, by the way, I managed to figure out the carpet shampooer. It works much better than the old one.
As you might imagine, I have lots of use for a carpet shampooer.
Ya know what ? It really is time for me to do something to justify my existence today, so will BBL to catch up with answers and all the news !
Glo posted on FB:
Just received text from son in law. Becky has been in recovery for hour or so. They will keep her 1 more night and maybe 2 to wait on test results. Hoping the whole family can still make the trip to SC on Tues. If not I guess the plan is for Eric and Elia to go. Thanks for prayers. Please continue them.
Awwww----Peter Falk---Colombo---passed away. 83 y.o. Always liked him in that role, and in the movies he's done!
Peter Falk was always one of my favorites.
News Flash!!! Called Park about something, and my friend Joyce said campers at our one site next to the River said they saw a common loon!!!Greg K. went out to check & it was there & seemed friendly!????
BBL
P.S. Osprey cam should be working...
Must get some work done around here.
Has anyone else lost their live feed sitting here with Jordyn and it just went off and say not available
Latest post from Glo:
SC is planned vacation trip with plane tickets all purchased etc. I had started to put contingency plans in place if I had to go to AZ for a few days. VERY hard with Dex to pull off BUT I was not going to leave her there alone after surgery either so. BUT sounding like they will go and hopefully she will take it easy. Another surgery in 3 to 4 weeks. long story. prayers please.
Oh, Loretta....how very cool to have a loon! Now you'll have to stay late to listen!!
And PAX cam is working fine now!
JudyE--I can't get our cam page at all now after a refresh attempt. Keeps saying Server Not Found.
Tried on both browsers---no luck. Guess OC must have a big problem.
NOT MORE CAM ISSUES YUK
Its always to the weekend have you noticed that when there is cam issues I mean
Judy, I don't think this is a cam issue. It's a web issue for Outdoor Channel.
Missed my doctors appointment this morning because I didn't realize it was Friday! Geez, I love summer, but I never know what day it is when I'm not working!
I can't get the cam up, is there a problem? Or is it my computer?
my page the little spinning thing keeps going around and around I have the actual page but no cam
Thanks JudyE that's what I have too. Then when if finally stops it says that it's not available.
I just have the turning arrow, too.
NatureNut mentioned a cam that it is working is it her cam and may I have the link and thank you in advance Almost time to take Jordyn at 5 BBL
I love what you said Paula about more dogs to love AWWWWW so true
I'm reading the blog backwards It can get confusing that way I just noticed
Later Gator BBL
DanaMO - How funny is that.....I wake up most mornings wondering what day it is!! Maybe that is because I sleep so good!!
I am heading to the beach, will check in when I can!
Have a great weekend!!
Love you all ♥
I hope you're enjoying your summer DanaMo!! Hopefully your doctor's office will understand!
Safe travels, Paula!! Check in when you can! ♥♥♥
Lynn, I got directions now on how to get to the Rescue...will email you beginning of next week.
Kay, Michael is about 45 minutes from New Brunswick. He was a sociology major, works in a halfway house.
Bye!!
JudyE, bet if you refresh the whole page, you will get the page can't be found info!
Here's is cam from Loretta's workplace:
Patuxent River cam
That's bad, DanaMo!!!! Guess that means it was a routine apptmt. and not for a specific problem!
Paula, drive carefully. Bet traffic will be a bear!
This just gets weirder and weirder. Darth has a cousin who lives in Lawrenceville - used to live in Princeton. Carteret is maybe 15-10 minutes from New Brunswick.
Prayers for Glo's Becky.
Congratulations for Lowreeda's park having a loon. You must be beyond excited.
Sad about Peter Falk. Always really enjoyed Columbo.
Well, must move along to get some food for us and then be ready to leave at 6:30.
Have fun everyone and please try to obey the speed limit so I can catch up later.
Safe trip and have fun, Paula.
Hi everyone.
Paula, though you know I'm jealous, please have a good time and some fun with the work at your haven.
PA Lynn, welcome back and continued prayers for you and your family. At first I thought your avatar was a Stargazer Lily. They look similar in pictures.
Wanda, haven't been able to get an email to you. Did you change your addy? Please contact me.
Lynn, sounds like Liesl is doing great.
Hi Shirley and Judie. I saw you too.
Loretta, how did you train your kitty? Mine have learned some verbal directions but can't get them to play catch.
If I missed anyone, please don't take it personally. This old brain doesn't work in overdrive.
PAULA, aha, my memory was certainly flawed as I was placing Lawrenceville much closer to Trenton. I'm sure I've been there on the way to someplace or other as it's just straight down Hiway 1 from Highland Park. Apparently all the NJ locations mentioned are in very close proximity to each other. Interesting !
Michael and my eldest, Eileen, would have a lot in common. Her undergrad degree was in Sociology and she's now a clinical psychologist. She's spent most of her career working with the same kind of people Michael is serving.
Have a great weekend in Paradise !
Feeding time at "Loretta's" Osprey nest. All are very happy !!!!
OK I am bak had a GREAT YOGA PRACTICE and we arew having SUN SHOWERS...Mostly a very grsy wet day with thunder and then all of a sudden the sun is out and people stop in the street and put their faces up to the sun...it is a curious view I observed several times walking to and from my car...
The live feed is out here but the still cam is still on...
I see I should have proof read my last post...sorry
Heading out to get the grosseries. Probably not a good time to go, but gotta do it anyway!
Later, gators!
KAY - My neighbor emailed me and said the lady's name I was talking to you about is Kim Shienbaum and she is the chair of the Polital Science Dept at Rutgers. She didn't mention which campus, though.
She asked your son's and his wife names and would mention them to Kim if they are at the same campus. She said they probably know each other! Sue (my neighbor) said Kim and her husband just returned from Greece and she is having breakfast with them next Friday morning!
It would be neat if they knew one another wouldn't it? Kim and her husband are much older than your son would be, I'm sure, but Kim is so very nice.
Prayers for Glo's daughter.
JUDIE, enjoy the performance tonight ! Julie, Hugh and Seth saw Wicked in London last June. They said it was spectacular.
Aw, sorry we lost Peter Falk, always loved his work, especially Columbo.
LORETTA, a friendly Loon ? Cool !
KAY - Update.....Kim Shienbaum (my neighbor) is the Chair of the Political Science Department at Rutgers University - Camden.
Finally I got it right!!
Thanks PA Nana!!! It's great to be back!!
Posted on wrong thread! We are in Colorado. See snow on the peaks. Saw a hwy sign, not for deer, but beat. Maybe I should practice" It's me bear". LOL. Also, rv park has warning about bears!
We have stopped for the night!
Home again Home again....
Prayers for Glo's daughter Becky
for kidney stone surgery.
Sharon almost sounds like a "family
reunion" with so many. Glad all are
at the lake having fun. Thelma too,
oh goodie..Has Buddy every gone in
the water?
PA Linda love the clematis. I have
a dark purple and a light purple with
a dark purple stip in each pedal.
I got Delta 2 nest. KAY where do you a little bear in the nest??
Hurrah Lolly is in Colorado seeing signs for BEARS...LOL...So long as you do not say ," Here Bear" so they would not come towards you looking for food...LOL...
I thought the only "blue teddy bear" was at the Osprey Site in Conn. Milford. It was 2006 or 2007...a big storm came up and blew poor teddy right out of the nest.
Scanned the blog quickly. On phone, no wifi. So, Is it now Loony Loweeda? :)
Going to call it quits for tonight!
hee hee I don't believe it but I do see the "teddy bear" in the Delta 2 eagles nest. LOL
LOLLY I hope you see a bear that would be so great I only have seen one bear and it was a young one crossing the road on the road while we were driving in Shenandoah Valley I got a pic of it I hope you have a great time
I love it on the Delta pic the last one the teddy is in the eagles mouth
Oh I dislike that spinning arrow I hit refresh and that's all it does
Going in to LM
PA LYNN LINDA I have some video of the recent visit of our eagles on my Nest Video Blog they are all short in lenght also and don't forget to check out the EM photo album and once again Welcome Home
Hello Eagle Pals...
Oh Wow, We had a MAN on the Blog today! But Jim never stays around long for chatter...
Hi Jim!
Prayers for our dear Glo's daughter, and may all the health care providers be the Very Best...and plans for the SC trip turn out OK
Thanks for the information on that, Lynn
Wouldn't you all just fall over if I told you the Dinosaur brought the live feed up?
Psyyyyche.....it did not...
I have the same as all of you...
ye ole spinning arrow
Remember that refresh trick on the Still Cam later if we don't get live action back...
wait five seconds after the 30-second rollover, hit refresh, and see what happens!
Shirley:
Glad you got the carpet shampooer working...want to rent it out?
I could really use that here !
NO pets, just mostly James and me
Read with interest what you said
Shirley
about not being allowed to smile for ID pictures.....
DMV lady told me, this is so that digital impressions can be obtained better in a time of need for that sort of thing
probably some sort of crime-solving or other technique....
I KID YOU NOT:
I WAS THE LAST CUSTOMER FOR PHOTO ID AT DMV...
PICTURE TAKEN, AND CAMERA BROKE!
Had to go another work station, job completed, I was allowed to smile.
Was very cute, the technician, says "Think Joyful Thoughts"
that was Easy !
xoxo ☺
Also noticed a mass ant exodus on the concrete patio this morning when leaving for work...no food crumbs or anything around....think they all bailed out of the tomato plant after treatment last night ☺
Too funny! They are all gone now
Happy First Night Layover, Lolly and Jack, was good to see you on here a couple of times.
And once again:
Welcome Back Pa-Linda!
Have missed all the birdy reports!
time to go check the crops and flowers
be back in a little while
Happy Trails to Paula....Oh that trip to Capon Bridge, is a Snap!
And a pretty one at that, mostly four-lane divided highway, two going each way LOL
Straight on Rt 50 from Winchester....right off I-81
then...not sure where you end up after that ☺
But I DO KNOW WHO you will see☺
Good Old Nick...
xoxo back in a bit xoxo
Oh so NEAT!! Loretta a loon at Pax Park. Well if Greg needs to know for next year about how to fix up a ramp so they can lay their eggs. Larry's Loon site will give him an idea ( :
Glo will continue Prayers in reference
to that other surgery in 3 or 4 weeks.
Keep us informed on the blog...please.
Prayers the SC trip works out.
Safe travel prayers for Paula heading
for Beach House. Workers this weekend
and much food!!!!!!
Oh Paula gets to see Nick in person.
Next week at the Rescue.
Yes for many years I too enjoyed Columbo. Sad as they pass on.
I already gave Lolly and Jack & family
safe travels but doesn't hurt to say it again. They are already in Colorado!!!
REMEMBER LOLLY AS THOUGH WITH LILY & HOPE SAID:
"IT'S ME BEAR"....
Hi Diann I know my brain is in a different gear than I need it to be. Slow and getting slower lol
Hoda did you see a rainbow?
I'm getting dizzy...Kay and Paula and Judie/Darth and others connecting and all might know same people in another town. That is neat !! Kay's neighbor--small world.
Hi Margy you smiled on your license hee hee
What you scared all the ants away!!!
Hope Hedgie-Lynn has someone to help her with groceries no no you all say
grossry I think.
WV_GAL DAA, YES, a rainbow over the lake as I was headed back to the flat...
MOVIN Fits him so good he slides in and slides out always a movin HEY JIM stick around sometime
Magpiebroke the camera how funny
Oh Hoda I bet it was a beautiful sitting over the lake and a rainbow....awwwww wished I could have seen it. I love hearing you talk about the area you live in. Hugs
setting instead of sitting
I want to see a "baby panda" again at DC Zoo !!! ( :
Prayers for wildfires in Arizona.
Don't know why I have never added that on here.
Thanks WV_GAL DANA. Nelson is a littl town of 10 thousand people, this includes the surrounding areas.We are surrounded by mountains and we hug the shores of a huge lake,100 miles long.Forests all around us and we share with black bears and grizzlies. With deer and elk and moose. There are eagles and osprey and many little birds. The climate allows for lush forests and beautiful gardens. The parks here are stunning.I would like it too if you could see this place.I have not visited West Virginia but from the pictures I see I think you are surrounded with Beauty and Grace...Breath taking photographs I have see of your State.
I have been having so much fun with this
FILL IN THE STATES
Sounds dreamy, your home place, Hoda....
Each state and country surely has its own special beauty
Would love to see your country sometime
Wonder if Jo's hubby has her PC reconfigured yet...
hope to see her sometime today
am hoping to catch a view of the Eagles...nest should be nice and dry...no reason for them NOT to stop by for the adoring fans
Sharon and the Gang:
Have a Great time at the Lake
xo
Outdoor Channel has posted now about the cam being down
with no ETA for its resolution
:(
oh well, guess my computer will not hang up like it does when I watch live feed
back in a little while, need to find some FOOD
OH HODA I'm going to get you for that That is so addicting I had played it before and hadn't realized that hours have gone by and now it shows back up to haunt me LOL
Watching Osprey and chicks near where Hoda lives. The live cam with sound is a very nice CLOSE UP.
OOPS Its a weeknd thing looks like Well I'm going over to my rocker and rock a bit LM
Sorry JudyE lol you never know what this blog and computer is going to put you through lol About the link Hoda put up "the map" lol
Not me I haven't been too far out of West Virginia. Let's see Pa, Va, Md, Florida, Georgia...that might be as far as I have been.
I have been in every state but Alaska, Hawaii and Michigan with the thanks of my parents and my best friends June and Terry LM until the chime of my email
I had fun with your states game, Hoda. It was nice that it got easier as I progressed!
I managed to score 84%. Haven't been to quite all of the states.
I bought a wooden map of the states and took it to summer school one year. I was teaching students who were having trouble with SOL testing. Many of them had lots of trouble finding the locations of the states. I recall someone trying to put Washington state where Washington DC is.
I am sure it helps a lot if you have actually visited the states.
I don't know how this is going to work. I have laptop in living room where I can watch tv and comments.
Table is too high plus when I used recliner to get feet up it is harder to do.
Do you have a lap tray to use ???
No haven't found one yet that will fit under the recliner. Recliner is at the end of a sectional. It has a bar that lays on floor. If I put on lap it hurts my legs.
I'm b-a-c-k!!! Cold/freezer stuff put away, dinner done. Liesl is wound up---guess the anesthetic is totally out of her system!!!
Yep, saw that new message from OC, JudyE. So maybe it IS the cam....tho' that does not account for why their whole page would be unavailable!
Lolly, time for the campfire!!! Is Laurel at the same place tonight? When does Michael join you?
Watching Flashpoint it is a good show.
I still want a "baby PANDA at DC Zoo"!!!!!!!!!!!!
Hoda, sounds like a great day for you! Rainbows are omens of more good things to come!
Margie, do you think the ants were in your potting soil?
Sure glad DMV had another camera---never knew them to have more than one.
Oh Lolly! Time for s'mores. yum yum.
Have a fun time with the family. "See" ya when you get back with lots of pix.
Hoda, that was fun! My mouse kept sliding me away from where I wanted but did finish.
DanaWV,
I like to place something on my lap and put the laptop on it. A book might work. Sometimes I use one of those placemats that is like a tray.
It lets the laptop cool off, so it does not get too hot.
The tree man was here today. Took about 2+ hours, but I can now see the sun and the sun can see us.
Now I can catch the full moon when it comes up. Margie, let me know when to look. Also, I'll be able to watch ISS again. Yippee!
Off to join jubby at the tv. bbl
I got to the ice cream case and MY I/C was all out! SO disappointed! Went around the end of the aisle---freezer there HAD it! SO relieved. Oh, ye of little faith!! Whew. Haven't had any in a couple of weeks---cravings have been a bear!!
Christie and Shannon are downstate for the weekend visiting his grandparents....nice trip for the new car!
Guess I better call Carolyn before she heads for bed!
Carolyn was too cute today, Lynn
When four of us were leaving at 4 pm
she said
since I have been a good girl today, can I leave at 4 also?
Wish we could have granted that wish ☺
Lynn
the only things I sprayed were the two tomato plants...
those dudes were making like a hurricane evacuation
Okay
I would like to place my order for a couple of Eagles to view this evening
Belle first and longest, of course !
Laptop Trays on E-Bay
There are lots of laptop trays out there. You could pay almost any price. The college ones look interesting.
downstate, as in where exactly Lynn
Say hi to Jewels for me ☺
Good moniker, she is a GEM !
Oh yes
Rainbows, a good omen
James and I had seen that spectacular one Friday night last week
BEFORE seeing Belle and Truder in the nest ☺
Lori:
You asked about Rocky
Did you see the answer on the old thread?
Jill, Wanda's granddaughtger...
who rescued him a few years back
lives at her fire station now.
dog, not allowed there
I think the $8.99 laptop tray looks nice, actually.
Kay
I had to go the RSPB sites and reload the cams for Goshawk, and Loch Garten...
not sure what that was all about
will check on little Miss Goshawk in the morning
read, that she has been branching a lot, might be out of the coop by now already
Shirley:
How is Luna these days?
The avatar of Hunter, is definitely one of my all-time favorites of all the ones you have placed on here ☺
An Championship Smile !
Diann
When you come back:
Moon is on the wane now,
"rises" sometime overnight in the East....and moves across the sky towards the West...was pretty much straight up when I left for work this morning
and it will continue to get smaller
So, in a little while we can start watching it Wax again starting in the West
ISS, from tonight thru July 1 herebouts, very late flyovers...
but all before midnight
Hope you can see some of all this!
Hi DanaWV
hope you can accomplish your watching TV and your laptopping all at the same time, comfortably
Oh my heavens SHIRLEY I click on "laptop trays link in blue you put at comment 8:23pm". At the 17th tray on the left of page is my "STOLEN CAMERA"!!!!!!! Cannon PowerShot SX 210
sniffle sniffle
SCROLL DOWN TO 17th LAPTOP TRAY ON LEFT SIDE IS MY STOLEN CAMERA
Well on my link I put up it is beside the 9th and 10th laptop tray.
Hi, all! I am moving to Montana at the end of this week - driving cross country, taking in the sites, moving van taking responsibility for possessions - except my cats who will be riding with me!! My sister lives in Hagerstown so I want to take a side trip to the nest. Can someone e-mail (profile or momster page) the directions and tips and hints as to the best way to approach the area? It will just be a drive by with my camera ready, but I really don't expect to see Belle as it won't be early a.m. or late evening. BUT I WILL see the sycamore and nest! Thanks, guys!
when the still cam goes black, you can wait 5 seconds, hit refresh and it comes back up !
Irene:
Wow fast work!
I am sure one of the experts will provide good driving directions, and tips and hints....
I am working dayshift Friday and Saturday....might not be able to see you ! Keep us posted on your itinerary
It's not too complicated...but it will depend on which direction you are coming from, before we start on it.
FuzzleMa where in Montana? There will be two of us close to the 49th parallel on the western part of the continent? This is GREAT...when everyone else has signed off back east we can keep the blog going...LOL
SHIRLEY I actually need something that will be like a table with legs. To keep laptop off my knees. Hard to find due to that bar under couch. Been searching for awhile very hard to find what I need.
Fuzzle:
If I don't get snagged for an extra shift, I could meet you somewhere and lead you right to it !
We'll see what you say about the whens and wheres of your travels, specifically...
I did see the Eagles at the nest last Saturday twice:
Once around 0900, in branches, and then at 11:10 - IN the nest
Hoda: Starting in Missoula, but my goal is to move north to Kalispell. I am so tired from packing!
was on the NCTC campus for a Bird Watch - Audubon Society
I worked at a law firm in Washington years ago
Many of their clients were Indians with Land Claims
Included both the Kalispel tribes,
and the Kootenai
and many many others...
Margie, Shannon's Memaw and Papaw live in Glenville. He was the town pharmacist before he retired.
The city that the eagle and fawn took the power out in Did you see the article the eagle dropped the fawn on the power line and light went out
Plan on working on that this weekend - so I will let you know. That would be great to have you along!!
in Missoula
It's a sad town when college isn't in session---nearly deserted.
Ok Lynn, copy that...LOL
we had brush fire today along power lines, took out 3,000 customers when the power line was affected, but not sure which came first, the afftected power line, or the brush fire !
Falling Waters area
on the crime note:
Big theft items these days:
Metal!
Air conditioners, window and central units
copper wire of any kind
grates, manhole covers
AND, today, three catalytic converters taken out of vans used for the Developmentally Disabled....
Not Nice...
Some arrests have been made, though
Police taking some bites out of Crime !
daggone, color gone
Eagles are standing us up !
:(
so far
sometimes they do come in later than this
There are quite a few air conditioner and brass from the fire stations theft around here so sad but when they go to sell it they all have been busted that is too funny it think
Looks like no visit tonight Janet on the facebook said the weather was bad there and they probably wouldn't show
Listening to todays trail I have watched most of the In Sessions but I still have lots of HLN ones to watch for each day I will never get caught up
Glenville, that is...not Missoula!!!
Irene, that's really fast work! It would take me a month to pack and plan all of that! Sure hope you have housing ready out there for you!!! Fri. or Sat. would work for me to hook up, too. If you want to do that, let me and Margy know, and we'll pick a meeting spot right off the interstate. I put directions here for you a few days ago! TO start, from Hagerstown: I-81 South appx.20 miles to Exit 16 East (which is Rt. 9). We can hook up at the Comfort Inn just up the eroad a little ways. If you want to goo oall the way to the nest on your own, holler and I'll give you the rest of the directions!!
OMG Fuzzle.......I love Kalispell....more importantly I love the Big Mountain!! We used to ski there every year from 1995 - 2003! Haven't had the chance to go back since then, but hope to in the coming year or two.
We have a good friend who retired and moved to Columbia Falls, which is about a half hour or so from Kalispell!!
Beautiful country up there and so close to the Glacier National Park....another beautiful area.
Safe and happy travels!! I'm jealous! That is where we wanted to move when we left FL, but decided to stay on the east coast closer to family!
HEDGIE this is her post is why I mentioned it

OMG----Irene and Hoda will practically be neighbors!!!! Unbelievable! ♫ ♪It's a Small World After All!!!♪ ♫
DanaWV, there is no camera showing on that page anyplace.
Hope you're ready for a lot more snow, Irene!!
I didn't see a camera either I think it changes with each person checking it out I went on two times and was different both times
Margy, I think Bill said 3 air conditioning units have been stolen from backside of Eagle Plaza.....but he has good security cams on lot. SP have been reviewing the footage!
And fog.....lots of low lying fog in Kalispell in the winter!
Lots of skiers don't like it as much as Colorado because the sun isn't out as much. We liked it because back then the crowds were not nearly as bad there as when we used to go to the ski resorts in CO!

Wonder what the ring cost back them??
Oh I did - it was on the early a.m. news that day (which I have on if I wake up and then snooze thru) - then I followed a link someone put here on the blog or possibly momster mail? I have been visiting sporadically for the past weeks since I began packing - go right to the nest, but now it's down! BOO!!!!

JudyE---the ones who steal stuff from the fire departments should get double sentences. ARGH---makes me SO angry.
