I saw that you want to name the intruder, do you ever go over to the NCTC cam, we have thought about it long and hard and have tossed names back and forth for over a month, Will you consider any name or do you have to belong to the momster/dadster. Also, How are the Kitty's are thry sick or will they be Ok
daggone it, no Northern Lights visible here, maybe too many town lights, but I did see Jupiter (East and Yellow-White) Pleaides, Triangulum and some other beauties...skies have cleared nicely!
Thanks, Shirley. Very beautiful. I asked Dennis and he told me more about them, too. Duh!! I guess I should have known that from school!
Onewith - Lori usually posts early in the morning. She is the caretaker of the kitties who have been ill. I am sure she will see your post and respond. Her day starts when most of us are sleeping!
Onewith, Naturenut, DanaMO, and Costume Lady have posted pictures of today. Click on their avatars and that will take you to their homepage. Then click on their blogs. Wanda's (Costume Lady) are on her Smiles blog. Loretta's (NatureNut) has pictures on nook blog. DanaMo just has one blog, I think. Does that help? Hope so!
OK, THOSE northern lights are really pretty, and only seen way up north....ours, when they are visible here, are not quite so spectacular, although very cool as we rarely ever see them. If you are on FB, check out Megan's page...Mad took a great picture of what we saw!
I have some pictures we took of Northern Lights on my blog way back when I first started posting. They were taken here in Virginia. I'll see if I can find them.
Ta-da!!! FINALLY. Have been trying to post for a long time but blogger cop wouldn't let me do anything! Here is what I was trying to say!
Good evening, pals! Very tired here.....don't know if I'll get caught up or not. Kay, I've been using that formula for gnats for a long time. Seems like they become immune to it in a few days! Good luck.
Kay, love that poem! Thanks for bringing it to us again!
Checking out pics now. Sounds like you all had a great nest visit and camaraderie! So glad it all worked out well!!
Linda, they are a phenom of the arctic circle and the northern most parts of the continents south of there. Every now and then there are solar flares so strong that they can be seen further south. But never as beautiful as they are in the far north!
LYNN it is good to see you on here. How is LIESL and has she seen the beach yet? How is your knee? Oh I missed you on the blog earlier today. It was so quiet with so many gone...
Linda and Hoda, Thanks i will check in the morning to see about the Kitties. and I think you all are right the O/C, I check out the forum everyday looking for the cam. How will we know if Lib will show up if it is down? And what are they doing . I hate that we will have to wait until Jan.
I'd LOVE to see that in person Hoda! The best ones I saw several years ago lasted for a few hours and I was mesmerized. Red, then red with streaks of yellow, then blue and green off to the side, and the colors were all the way up to the zenith! they didn't dance, but the did change up in intensity and patterns quite a bit!
onewith, there is a lot of work to be done by NCTC and they have their main jobs to do...the camera is an extra bonus. They are hampered by schedules and budget allotments and they do their very best and we are ever so very grateful for the work they do...
I am sure Hoda gets the best views. The ones I saw in New York danced. We saw them almost every night that summer. Had a good view from out on the lake.
Just went outside. Couldn't see anything. Dark sky, light clouds, a few stars & some trees and road lights toward North. BOO Can see stuff like that at Park fields.
Just found what channel Ravens are on, but it's 1/2 time & B'Ball is tied at 2 each.
I am so glad that all went well with Darth, Judie, but wow, what a long day for you both. :( I don't rmember it taking so long for Bill when he had his done.
No northern lights here. :(
I read GWTW the summer I was 12....I read almost non-stop for 3 days!!! Absolutely loved it!!! The first time it was shown on TV (no VCR then) I played hooky form work!!!
JudyE---great that you found earrings! I know that's what you wanted!!! Jo, was Faith working in the gift shop?
Last night was not good.....Liesl had a restless night, as did I! We are having elimination issues....she has only piddled twice today, and no p--ps........getting ready to take her out one last time before putting her down for the night, and then I'm heading to the tub and bed.
We had no luck today with the house hunt. Have a couple to see tomorrow, and the one that Irene and I like agsin.
We did drive down to Hatteras......much evidence of the the destructive power of nature....but a lot of recovery evident, too.
Can't do anymore.....sorry gang. Too pooped to even pucker. Love you all! Praises for the good health news, prayers for those in need, and Hmmmmmmm for Lynne re: Steve's results. Maybe he needs to ask for a different Dr. There's always more than one in clinic!! I don't know how they assign them, but do know that you can switch! Right, Jewels???? (if you are lurking). G'night, pals!
Lynn - Good to see you check in!! Hope you had a great day scouting today!!
Lolly - Sure hope you're feeling better and if it's a cold, it goes fast!
Prayers for DanaMo's father, Lori's Mother, Lori's Kitties, Lynn's knees and upcoming surgery, Diann's pain to ease, Darth to have a good night and a good doctor's report tomorrow, Kay for continued strength to get that ok to travel to NJ for Thanksgiving, Dennis in his recovery, Lil and her Mom as she prepares for her Grand Promotion, young Tori and her lung treatments, Margy's index finger, WV Dana's cousin Rosie, Jo's back therapy, Wanda's knees, GG's pain.....and more I may have not listed. Keeping us all in prayer!
WE have many Praises as well!!! A Spectacular Day at the Nest, an amazing Eagle show by Beautiful Belle and Truder, Any day at the OBX for Lynn, Wonderful friendships we share right here, DanaMo's Dad's quick recovery, Dennis' quick recovery, Lori's Mom's quick recovery, Kay's continued strength,and oh, so much more!!
Thinking about heading upstairs after a long, but happy day!!
'Night Lynn, I'll get my few little pics on here shortly and you can view in the morning Good luck for Liesl on the P--ps, got her tug from Lori, will get to Caro Tuesday... maybe that will rile things up !
I think I spell Liesl a different way each time I post!
DIL finally found fabric for her dining room chairs....Xmas present from 2 years ago...so we are on a mission now to get the chairs recovered before Thanksgiving...
And would like to ask for a prayer for Tony and Heather that they may find the answer they seek, and are at peace with it in their hearts ♥ Can't really say anything more about the situation. Thank you.
Hello and Good Night Lynn - Miss You! Hope tomorrow will be better with the house hunting. Faith was there! Said she has 3 granddaughters since I last saw her. We pushed her sales way up, believe me! Take care
The sandperson is not being very subtle tonight. In fact, down right obnoxious. So...
The night light is on for any who may need to arise in the darkness, may need to arise in the darkness with only one working eye, for those headed back the hallway, to the tub, or arriving late from the West coast. Restful sleep for all.
it took me a long time but I did get three sets of 5 pics on Fun and Dandy.. kind of put them in reverse order, from Swinging Bridge back to "Receiving Eagle Beads..." and.. sorry I don't know how to put names on each pic
DANAMO,love seeing the Tuggers ! Happy news that your Dad is already coming home ! Hope your Mom can keep him from overdoing !
LORETTA, more great pics ! Priceless video "Trick or Treat"--a real treat to see for those of us who couldn't be there.
WANDA, it's fun to see the different perspectives each of you camera bugs have ! Hope the splat on the windshield wasn't anyone we know !
JUDIE, relieved to hear how the day went for you and Darth. Hope you can avoid rush hour on the trip tomorrow.
LYNN, find it interesting to hear the gnats seem to become immune to the vinegar treatment in a few days. Makes you wonder how they communicate, huh ? Wonder if Liesl is off sked due to change of water ? Dogs often go into the mode she's in when taken to a kennel or left with someone else. Guess they're more sensitive to change than we realize !
LINDA, thanks so much for your lists of prayers and praise.
I'm taking that list and heading to bed now---"see" you all tomorrow.
To ALL the AWESOME MOMSTERS and DADSTER who went to NCTC today thank you for the excitement and for the reporting and for the pictures. I look forward to more pictures and more videos tomorrow and the days to follow. I celebrate you all...You made for a GREAT day for all of us.THANK YOU
MARGY, I'm pulling a Margy in order to thank you for your beautiful pictures. Gorgeous scenery out Swinging Bridge way. Love those beautiful faces and smiles ! Easy to see, a good time was had by all !
LORETTA, I LOVE your Trick or Treat video...What a fun lunch that was...OH I soooooooo wished I was there too...It was so GREAT to be with your excitement in spirit through out the day. I kept wondering where you were and what you were doing...now some images come through...THANK YOU...I hope LORI made it home safe and sound and that she is fast asleep and resting.
Hi, Everyone! Have been very busy today, cleaning the house.
Prayers for WV Dana's Mom, for healing!
Kay, thanks for the gnat remedy, and for the wonderful poem!
SO GLAD everyone had such a fantastic time at the nest!! Reading the posts makes me feel as if I were there with you! Thanks to those who have posted pictures--BEAUTIFUL!!
Prayers of gratitude that Darth's surgery went well, and prayers of healing for him, and for a good night's sleep for him and Judie!
Paula, prayers for Tony & Heather.
Lynn, prayers that Liesl will get back on schedule.
onewith, welcome to you! Drop by anytime!
Well, pretty tired tonight, so think I'll call it a day. The porch light is on, and both security systems are enabled. Prayers said for everyone, and for all creatures. Sleep well, everyone. God bless, and goodnight. Love all of you! :o] P.S.--Emma says, "ZZzzzzzZOZZzzzz..."
Been reading, see that Rangers WON!!! Yippee! Good to hear of recovery for DanaMo's Dad, Lori's Mom, Dennis, and hope Darth takes it easy. Lynne 2, that does not sound like acceptable blood counts on Steve. 2nd opinion! Prayers for all & Pleasant Feather Dreams ;>)
TY to Jo, Steve, Marie and all responsible for our wonderful day ☺
My delete...I am sorry to say I have been frantically looking for my list so I can send my Christmas cards and I can not find it...I wonder if when LYNN comes back I could ask for it again. I feel so embarrassed...
Whoa, I'm still sleepy! I barely slept Sunday night because I was so excited about going to the nest and seeing everyone, and I couldn't settle down enough last night to go to bed early even though I was soooo tired!
I have many pictures to post, but need to figure out where Kate is in getting things off my old computer and onto the new.
It was so awesome to meet JudyE knowing that she had come all the way from Florida! I recognized DanaMo before I even got out of the car, JudyE, too. Can't wait to see the pictures of the Early Birds together - DanaMo, JudyE, Margy and me.
Wanda looked absolutely beautiful with her new hair! She and Jo both had their regal eagle canes and JudyE got the last one in the gift shop. My favorite gift shop find was an unusual wood eagle refrig magnet! Very cool.
ONEWITH, thank you for asking about the kittens. They all appear to be fine at the moment and I pray they stay this way. Still they are quarantined until the first of January to be sure. They get sweeter every day.
L☺ri ! Am happy to see you... of course wish you had gotten more sleep.. better add an extra scoop to the coffee brew this morning! Maybe the airways will be busy with reports of the fabulous Northern Lights seen in some local areas... It was a great day and Hey! I don't think anyone mentioned the fine fare at the cafeteria; Best Parsnips I ever had, and YOU got the bay leaf, and didn't even have to wash the dishes ! Thanks so much for all the joy you brought with you
I think I meant to say airwaves not airways; I've been sort of going to bed for a little while... Hope your day is a good one, and I might "see" you in a few hours back on here gotta live up to that picture you took of the early morning crew ☺
I'm sooo excited. I managed to get my pictures loaded onto the computer before I left for work this morning so I will put them on the blog when I get home today!!!
Good morning early birds! Wow I went to bed early last night! All the excitement wore me out. Had so much fun yesterday and saw the eagles! Made my day.
Now today my dad gets to come home. Oh Kay I hope my mom can handle him! He has been told over and over that his success will depend on him following the rules. Let's hope he is a "good boy". We are also a little worried about the dog, they have an Old English Sheepdog who is just a puppy and loves papa very much. Hopefully they can control his excitement too! I told mom to call me if she needs help, of course she insists that she is a "big girl". I am waking her up at 6 to get herself ready for the day and go over to the hospital.
Hi DANAMO!!! I'm very behind on the blog today, still have to catch up and post pics... I'm so glad to hear they liked it! Did you see the eagles yesterday?
Yes, I had left when you did, got all the way to Antietam Battlefield and got Margy's call. I decided to turn around and go back and hope they were still there and they were! It was so exciting!
G☼☼d M☺rning dear girls, dear Eagle Bead owners, dear nest visitors !!! Thrilled as can be over yesterdays get together and looking forward to your pictures LORI ! Those already posted are sooo good of each and every one of you. So happy some saw the eagles, too !
Pleased to say Seth and Malcolm will be with me from 5 to 8ish this evening. Julie must do some adjunct critiqueing at Columbus State and Hugh is out of town. Jumped at the opportunity to have the boys here for dinner.
real quick Lori: as we were leaving, we caught up with Judy in the pkg lot,(DanaWV, Wanda and I) to set up trip to Swinging Bride...everyone else had already left.. so DanaWV wisely suggested we TAKE JudyE to the bend in the road, Voila! Soon as we pulled up, first one then the second eagle perched in the tree
knowing that DanaMo had yet to see her first eagle ever, we called her, she was, as she said, at the Antietam Battlefield cemetery... and she made it back to see her first bald eagles ever ☺
Sounds good Kay, your upcoming evening with the boys.... ☺ ☺ ☺
No doubt those sharp eagle eyes were watching you all when you were under the Sycamore Palace ! They must have been waiting for you to leave so they could zero in on their home. Surprised you could keep JUDY from scaling the tree to cut back the leafy branch we've all griped about ! Guess she's heading home now for a grand reunion with Jordyn. Safe travel JUDY !
Judy said once she wakes up (after sleeping in...)she'll start her return trek today... will go about 500+ mi today and the rest tomorrow. Ditto Kay, Safe Travels, Judy... it was a great visit. WV was happy to have you here !
I had Irish Lamb Stew, sweet potatoes and the pasnips... and carrot cake and coffee Everyone else had different things and I saw lots of empty plates afterward
Yay on the Rangers... hope they can get their First Ever World Series win... won't happen at the home stadium though... game 6 goes to St Louis Wednesday
I didn't fire up the coffee...'cause I'm going back for some more z's
LYNN, I put out fresh bowls of vinegar/detergent three times over two days. "Caught" a few more over night and seem to be gnat free this a.m.. May change once a door to the outside is opened. Do you change the brew that way or just leave it out for a while ? I noticed the odor dwindles after a few hours and that's when the little pests began to ignore the bowls.
Enjoy those zzzz's MARGY, you deserve a good rest ! ♥♥♥
LORI, I'm disappointed that your "purty toes" do not show in any of the pics, so far at least ! You are lookin' good and so huggable, {{{{{LORI}}}}} ! I can just see some gagging going on over this post ! LOL
Oh, good grief, LORI, I'm way behind on giving and receiving hugs ! My mental health is in serious jeopardy, but then many have suspected that for years !
Love the video with the dogs and their tug. I'll have to make you another one that you can keep in the house. Those babies are hysterical. I loved watching them. Thanks for taking the video. ♥
Good M☼rning EAGLE BUDS Getting ready to head out Hey guess what DUH moment for me Angie just texted me Her camera is a 200X zoom you know how I said it was fuzzy some pic well that is because of the button on the right top corner of the view finder is a button I was playing with the button but didn't know its functions well when you use the buttons you don't use the big view finder you use you eye in the hole OH WELL I will know for the nest time LOL I still got some great pictures from what I see on the camera
I figured out how to post a picture on facebook of the gang I did that last nite OK I would love to stay and read but I got to go LOVE TO YOU ALL I will check in I am sure the hotel will have a puter if not I will just call someone BYE ♥☺♥
Good morning Momsters and Dadsters. Sun is SHINING at the beach!!!! Another busy day ahead. Liesl has finally done her "thangs" so all is right with the world.
Please email if any important stuff happens!!! Just don't have time to read through!
JudyEIf you see this messge when you get on a computer. Try and put you pictures on your blog. Some can't get to facebook and your pictures would be so great for them to see. HUGS Gods Safe Travel and I miss you already♥
It was so wonderful yesterday connecting faces with names. Right away I felt the hugs and love of the people that have come to join the blog and are NOT now new people hee hee. Lori I just love you, you are so precious, DanaMo I felt we have been so close us both know the Pries at St. Mary's. JudyE to know you on the blog was just like I thought you would be. So full of life and loving. I am so proud to have met the 3 of you. You have those wonderful hugs and to know you are a part of us. HUGS♥♥♥
Paula needs prayers for Tony and Heather that they may find the answer they see, and are at peace with it in their hearts.
Diann glad you made it to the Reunion. I just know you enjoyed it ( :
DanaMo your Dad comes home today. Prayers that he will take it easy and give time for Gods healing.
Lori I see your Mother is coming home also today. Prayers that Gods gives that stomach HEALING by the "TOUCH OF HIS HAND".
Kay glad Seth and Malcolm will be with you some of today ( : Kay there was so much excitment over the eagles flying in. One eagle flew some putting on "The Momster Show" so I am thinking that was our Belle. Then flew onto a limb. Then the other eagle flew in. I don't think JudyE had even thought the whole time about trimming the nest plants. lol
The menu was great as always at NCTC. I know my grandmother fixed parsnips. I couldn't remember what they taste like. I got them with my turkey and dressing. Parsnips were delicious!!!!!!!
I enjoyed out guide Marie Brady. Yes young but fascinating. Loves nature. She had already told us there is a path going over to the nest. While we were waiting at the Admin. Bld. for others to come. We told her we would be better to drive over. Some of us could not do that path. So I do believe she knew where the nest was. Just wasn't watching it for the eagles.
Will be very busy the next few days so visits will be few and far between. Have 100 papers to read/grade, police class begins tomorrow night, Darth requires some driving to/from hospital. No need to send out a red alert. Will check in when I can.
Tried to skim over recent posts. Paula, not sure the reason but prayers for Tony and Heather.
So happy the NCTC visitors had so much fun. Looked at Margy's pictures. Not one unhappy face in the bunch. Wonderful memories for all.
Okay, need to get to work to grade as many papers as possible before heading for the hospital.
Good morning all...LORI or anyone who was on the trip yesterday...none of the pictures I saw so far have LORI in them, does anyone have ones with LORI? Did she take most of the pictures?
GOOD MORNING EVERYONE... HODA, check out my WILD AND WONDERFUL blog, there is a video and you will see and hear LORI (dark hair in a pony tail/glasses and a beautiful smile). Just click on the thumbnail and in a moment or two, it will play for you. I'm working on a video taken at lunch. Later~
ONEWITH...in April of next year, we will be attending OPEN HOUSE AT NCTC and would love for you to visit with us. It is similar to what we did yesterday, but much more to see and do. Please, keep that in mind, we would love to meet you!
Thick Thick Thick frost outside my window...well what did I expect it was 32 last night...the colour is at its maximum the past few days so now is time for the next step, some more change...
LUNCH VIDEO on my blog WILD AND WONDERFUL...will work on others tonight...need to vacuum shop while it's empty. Lunchtime will bring on a new crop of shoppers:)
10/20/11: Technical Update We have a slight delay in getting the Osprey Cam back online. We're waiting for the Visitor Center contractors (who caused the water damage) to purchase our new PC, but we hope this will happen soon. Note that we will not let the PC issue delay the start of the Eagle Cam season.
Good Morning - Tues is my day with Kristen and we are enjoying ourselves. Except she is rearranging my dish cupboards - I hope hubby can find things
Clarification on my comment from yesterday Marie said she has always known about the eagles' nest and where it is. Also Marie can't see it from her office but does and will check it out as she drives to & from her work bldg.
Now for the Good News I received from the Mastrangelo boys
Joseph & Andrew with their dad down in the back yard were going to shoot off a rocket. They did so and it makes some noise. Lo and Behold they looked up and 3 bald eagles were circling overhead above their house. They called out to their Mom and she said she was in awe watching them circling and going higher & higher. Their dad joked them that he didn't think they were bald eagles. Well Monday was the library day and Anthony told the Librarian about the sighting and asked for some books about eagles. He brought them home and showed his dad what the eagles look like in flight. He knew he had seen them and proved it to his dad. My gd and I are so thankful the children appreciate the eagles and all things pertaining to Nature.
Good morning! Wow great story, Jo! Ahhhh....more eagle experts!!!
Slept really late this morning and did not cough during the night. Have been coughing some this morning and boys does it hurt! My stomach muscles are protesting!
WANDA.....love the two videos. I really felt like I was there. LOL Wanted to join in on the conversations.
Jack went to the dental specialist yesterday and ended up having a root canal done on that tooth that they put a crown on., It was a gold crown so he just drilled through it. Goes back next week to the specialist and then back to his reg dentist who will patch the crown.
Laurel called with an interesting story.....Joey took Bosco and PC (Porch Cat) to the vet yesterday. Bosco is doing great for a large, old dog. Yea!
PC is not a young female, LOL, but a 2 to 3 year old male cat. He has been neutered. Laurel was afraid the stray had all kinds of problems, but no, PC is just underfed. So, he is now getting up to date with shots and PC is now living in the garage. The garage door is left open enough for PC to go in and out, but closed at night to protect PC. Guess PC should now be called GC! LOL
If Laurel can ever get Isabelle to accept PC, PC can move to indoors. Oh, and Laurel put a catbox in the garage and PC is litter box trained. Yea!
Time for me to get a move on! Did not do too much yesterday after mowing. Think I will try to do a little more today and see how I feel. I sometimes think sitting around while sick, makes you feel worse than you are. Does that make sense?

WEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
Northern Lights
Linda--some pictures of the Northern Lights.
I saw that you want to name the intruder, do you ever go over to the NCTC cam, we have thought about it long and hard and have tossed names back and forth for over a month, Will you consider any name or do you have to belong to the momster/dadster. Also, How are the Kitty's are thry sick or will they be Ok
daggone it, no Northern Lights visible here, maybe too many town lights, but I did see Jupiter
(East and Yellow-White) Pleaides, Triangulum and some other beauties...skies have cleared nicely!
How can I see pictures of what you post, I would really love to see the things that you see, but I am so computer stupid,,,
wish Lori had checked in...maybe I missed it...wonder if her new laptop is running okay....
will look for that early morning post !
onewith, I think you are talking of the OC site, you keep saying you post to the NCTC site, yet I think you mean the OC site. Am I correct?
Thanks, Shirley. Very beautiful. I asked Dennis and he told me more about them, too. Duh!! I guess I should have known that from school!
Onewith - Lori usually posts early in the morning. She is the caretaker of the kitties who have been ill. I am sure she will see your post and respond. Her day starts when most of us are sleeping!
onewith, if you click on the link STRONGHUNTER posted at 9:51 you will see the Northern Lights...
Onewith, Naturenut, DanaMO, and Costume Lady have posted pictures of today. Click on their avatars and that will take you to their homepage. Then click on their blogs. Wanda's (Costume Lady) are on her Smiles blog. Loretta's (NatureNut) has pictures on nook blog. DanaMo just has one blog, I think. Does that help? Hope so!
OK, THOSE northern lights are really pretty, and only seen way up north....ours, when they are visible here, are not quite so spectacular, although very cool as we rarely ever see them. If you are on FB, check out Megan's page...Mad took a great picture of what we saw!
LOLLY check your email...
Williamson, WV...see that Linda, thanks for the answer...that's a loooong way from here
wonder how Hedgie is doing and if she will post ?
Sometimes it is just a colorful glow in the sky, not as dramatic as those pictures, though, especially as far south as Virginia.
Best view I ever had of the Northern Lights was the summer I spent on Lake George in New York State.
Our skies are clear and with beautiful stars, but no northern lights tonight...ENJOY what you have...
Oh Margy.....Did you ask the question about where in WV?? I'm sorry!! Get a bit confused through all the posts sometimes!
I have some pictures we took of Northern Lights on my blog way back when I first started posting. They were taken here in Virginia. I'll see if I can find them.
Got it, Hoda! Thanks!
LOLLY - YOU have mail......
Northern Lights in Virginia
This is a view from my back yard. Pretty good, I think. Will's photography.
Do the northern lights only show in certain areas?
Hedgie and I both asked, Linda...that's okay, you're doing fine!
Well, you have to scan down to the bottom of the page to see the Northern Lights.
Ta-da!!! FINALLY. Have been trying to post for a long time but blogger cop wouldn't let me do anything! Here is what I was trying to say!
Good evening, pals! Very tired here.....don't know if I'll get caught up or not.
Kay, I've been using that formula for gnats for a long time. Seems like they become immune to it in a few days! Good luck.
Kay, love that poem! Thanks for bringing it to us again!
Checking out pics now. Sounds like you all had a great nest visit and camaraderie! So glad it all worked out well!!
Wow Shirley, Great! Beautiful!
And a whole bunch of other cool pics too
Helloooo Hedgie !
Hi, Lynn! So good to hear from you. Glad you were able to get past the blogger cop.
Shirley, those are great pictures!
Linda, they are a phenom of the arctic circle and the northern most parts of the continents south of there. Every now and then there are solar flares so strong that they can be seen further south. But never as beautiful as they are in the far north!
Hoda, do you ever see them up your way?
LYNN it is good to see you on here. How is LIESL and has she seen the beach yet? How is your knee? Oh I missed you on the blog earlier today. It was so quiet with so many gone...
Hello LynnEllen!
Linda and Hoda, Thanks i will check in the morning to see about the Kitties. and I think you all are right the O/C, I check out the forum everyday looking for the cam. How will we know if Lib will show up if it is down? And what are they doing . I hate that we will have to wait until Jan.
Thanks, Linda!
Hi, Lynn! Have missed you today, glad you finally got in.
LYNNE 2 The BEST Norhtern Lights I ever saw were in Northern Québec...oh they downright danced...I could stand and whistle and they would dance and come towards where I was standing. They were pretty impressive in Northen Alberta too. I see them in southern BC but they are not as impressive...I still like to see them though
we all share the same concerns about the cam, Onewith....sure sucks that it's down. We will miss a LOT if it's not back online til January....
Heading for bed, good night and prayers for all!
Night Lynne! Great to have you on this evening. You are missed when you are not here!
I'd LOVE to see that in person Hoda! The best ones I saw several years ago lasted for a few hours and I was mesmerized. Red, then red with streaks of yellow, then blue and green off to the side, and the colors were all the way up to the zenith! they didn't dance, but the did change up in intensity and patterns quite a bit!
onewith, there is a lot of work to be done by NCTC and they have their main jobs to do...the camera is an extra bonus. They are hampered by schedules and budget allotments and they do their very best and we are ever so very grateful for the work they do...
I am sure Hoda gets the best views. The ones I saw in New York danced. We saw them almost every night that summer. Had a good view from out on the lake.
Just went outside. Couldn't see anything. Dark sky, light clouds, a few stars & some trees and road lights toward North. BOO Can see stuff like that at Park fields.
Just found what channel Ravens are on, but it's 1/2 time & B'Ball is tied at 2 each.
Good night, Lynne & all hitting the hay!
Had some phone time with family...back now.
Welcome onewith! Please chime in any time!
Judie, glad Frank's surgery went well. Yucky ride home. Good dinner and asleep, all is well.
gonna go check the sky, not sure if I'm too late or not....nothing here but stars, we had some rain earlier while I was mowing.
Hoda, will check my mail.
I am so glad that all went well with Darth, Judie, but wow, what a long day for you both. :( I don't rmember it taking so long for Bill when he had his done.
No northern lights here. :(
I read GWTW the summer I was 12....I read almost non-stop for 3 days!!! Absolutely loved it!!! The first time it was shown on TV (no VCR then) I played hooky form work!!!
JudyE---great that you found earrings! I know that's what you wanted!!!
Jo, was Faith working in the gift shop?
Good Night Loretta, and sure was great to see you AND Frank today....
xoxo ♥
Last night was not good.....Liesl had a restless night, as did I! We are having elimination issues....she has only piddled twice today, and no p--ps........getting ready to take her out one last time before putting her down for the night, and then I'm heading to the tub and bed.
We had no luck today with the house hunt. Have a couple to see tomorrow, and the one that Irene and I like agsin.
We did drive down to Hatteras......much evidence of the the destructive power of nature....but a lot of recovery evident, too.
Can't do anymore.....sorry gang. Too pooped to even pucker. Love you all! Praises for the good health news, prayers for those in need, and Hmmmmmmm for Lynne re: Steve's results. Maybe he needs to ask for a different Dr. There's always more than one in clinic!! I don't know how they assign them, but do know that you can switch! Right, Jewels???? (if you are lurking).
G'night, pals!
JUDIE Prayers for DARTH'S comfort and helaing. Your day did sound long. I hope you have a GREAT visit from the sandman...
Lynn - Good to see you check in!! Hope you had a great day scouting today!!
Lolly - Sure hope you're feeling better and if it's a cold, it goes fast!
Prayers for DanaMo's father, Lori's Mother, Lori's Kitties, Lynn's knees and upcoming surgery, Diann's pain to ease, Darth to have a good night and a good doctor's report tomorrow, Kay for continued strength to get that ok to travel to NJ for Thanksgiving, Dennis in his recovery, Lil and her Mom as she prepares for her Grand Promotion, young Tori and her lung treatments, Margy's index finger, WV Dana's cousin Rosie, Jo's back therapy, Wanda's knees, GG's pain.....and more I may have not listed. Keeping us all in prayer!
WE have many Praises as well!!! A Spectacular Day at the Nest, an amazing Eagle show by Beautiful Belle and Truder, Any day at the OBX for Lynn, Wonderful friendships we share right here, DanaMo's Dad's quick recovery, Dennis' quick recovery, Lori's Mom's quick recovery, Kay's continued strength,and oh, so much more!!
Thinking about heading upstairs after a long, but happy day!!
Hello to Lynn. How is OBX???
Night, Margy. It was great to see everyone!!!Glad we could meet. It was our one year OH! LOL
Gonna check ballgames~~~
'Night Lynn,
I'll get my few little pics on here shortly and you can view in the morning
Good luck for Liesl on the P--ps,
got her tug from Lori, will get to Caro Tuesday... maybe that will rile things up !
Hoda, check your EM mail.
Nite, Lynn! (((Hugs))) for you and a snuggle for Liesl.♥
Ball game now 2 - 2. Come on Rangers!
Darn, missed Lynn!! HAVE FUN! ENJOY THE BEACH! Leisl will p**p when she really has to go, LOL
I think I spell Liesl a different way each time I post!
DIL finally found fabric for her dining room chairs....Xmas present from 2 years ago...so we are on a mission now to get the chairs recovered before Thanksgiving...
And would like to ask for a prayer for Tony and Heather that they may find the answer they seek, and are at peace with it in their hearts ♥ Can't really say anything more about the situation. Thank you.
Jo, check your EM mail.
I hope DARTH does not spend too much energy in his helaing process, I hope he focuses on healing...LOL sorry for the typo JUDIE.
Oops....my delete...
Okay, it's time for me to call it a night. I am still at my desktop computer and never even made it to the couch with my husband and my laptop!!
Wishing you all sweet restful sleep with visions of Belle (and Truder)in your heads.......
May God Bless and Protect us all and the critters we so dearly love.... xoxo ♥♥♥
Night ♥
Paula I have read the EMail and I have
already replied.
I have also deleted my comment
I feel "not at Peace"
Hello and Good Night Lynn - Miss You!
Hope tomorrow will be better with the
house hunting.
Faith was there! Said she has 3
granddaughters since I last saw her. We
pushed her sales way up, believe me!
Take care
In Friendship "we are all at peace..." so to you Gracious Lady ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥
Beautifully said, Hoda!!
I came for the Eagles......but stayed for the friendships! ♥
Once again, Good Night my Eagle Family!!
Love to you all............
Nite Linda! Still watching the game here. Bottom of the eighth, Rangers 4 - 2. Yea!
The sandperson is not being very subtle tonight. In fact, down right obnoxious. So...
The night light is on for any who may need to arise in the darkness, may need to arise in the darkness with only one working eye, for those headed back the hallway, to the tub, or arriving late from the West coast. Restful sleep for all.
GO RANGERS I hope you put another victorious picture on FB LOLLY.
Dear friends, I am very tired and 6:30 AM will come too soon. I will see you tomorrow. God bless and good night.
Good night Linda and Judie.
No time or patience to put videos on here tonight...tomorrow, OK?
GOOD NIGHT MY FRIENDS
SLEEP WELL
PRAYERS FOR ALL
THANKFULNESS FOR GIFTS OF THIS DAY
Nite Judie and Shirley! Momsters are dropping! I look forward to dropping myself, but right now we are in the 9th inning!
Yes, Paula...on your prayer request...♥
it took me a long time but I did get three sets of 5 pics on
Fun and Dandy..
kind of put them in reverse order,
from Swinging Bridge back to "Receiving Eagle Beads..." and..
sorry I don't know how to put names on each pic
Good Late Evening !
DANAMO,love seeing the Tuggers ! Happy news that your Dad is already coming home ! Hope your Mom can keep him from overdoing !
LORETTA, more great pics ! Priceless video "Trick or Treat"--a real treat to see for those of us who couldn't be there.
WANDA, it's fun to see the different perspectives each of you camera bugs have ! Hope the splat on the windshield wasn't anyone we know !
JUDIE, relieved to hear how the day went for you and Darth. Hope you can avoid rush hour on the trip tomorrow.
LYNN, find it interesting to hear the gnats seem to become immune to the vinegar treatment in a few days. Makes you wonder how they communicate, huh ? Wonder if Liesl is off sked due to change of water ? Dogs often go into the mode she's in when taken to a kennel or left with someone else. Guess they're more sensitive to change than we realize !
LINDA, thanks so much for your lists of prayers and praise.
I'm taking that list and heading to bed now---"see" you all tomorrow.
♥L♥I♥B♥E♥R♥T♥Y ! ! ! ! ! ! !
Good Night right away to those going and already gone to bed
and to those about to go
guess that covers it all for now ☺
To ALL the AWESOME MOMSTERS and DADSTER who went to NCTC today thank you for the excitement and for the reporting and for the pictures. I look forward to more pictures and more videos tomorrow and the days to follow. I celebrate you all...You made for a GREAT day for all of us.THANK YOU
LOL Kay! Love your comment about the splat on the windshield! Needed that laugh!
MARGY, I'm pulling a Margy in order to thank you for your beautiful pictures. Gorgeous scenery out Swinging Bridge way. Love those beautiful faces and smiles ! Easy to see, a good time was had by all !
Rangers win!!!!!!!!!!!!!
It WAS a Fun and Dandy Day!
Will look to see Lori and DanaWV on here in the morning since we didn't see them back here this evening
time to go dent some pillows
Prayers for Wellness Amongst us, and for all our Friends, Families, and Pets
Good Night, Precious Pals
God Bless This Nest, and
God Bless Us, Every One
xxoxo ♥
Lolly is a Happy Happy Camper

Margy, the pictures you posted were
fantastic! Thanks ♥
Yet another Margy move for me--LOLLY, hurray for the Rangers ! Here's hoping they win the Series !!!!!
Okay, I'm outta here. Looking forward to LORI's posts and pics in the morning ! ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥
LORETTA, I LOVE your Trick or Treat video...What a fun lunch that was...OH I soooooooo wished I was there too...It was so GREAT to be with your excitement in spirit through out the day. I kept wondering where you were and what you were doing...now some images come through...THANK YOU...I hope LORI made it home safe and sound and that she is fast asleep and resting.
Thanks for cheering for the Rangers!
Heading to the shower now and then to bed. I am anxious to put my head down.
Night all! Prayers at Paula's request.
MARGY GREAT PICTURES. What lovely smiles and terrific energy.Thanks for posting.
Thank you Hoda
And this too shall pass... ♥
I think I am extra tired from a
beautiful day..
Good night everyone
Peace to you and yours
Hugs ♥♥♥♥♥♥
Hi, Everyone!
Have been very busy today, cleaning the house.
Prayers for WV Dana's Mom, for healing!
Kay, thanks for the gnat remedy, and for the wonderful poem!
SO GLAD everyone had such a fantastic time at the nest!! Reading the posts makes me feel as if I were there with you! Thanks to those who have posted pictures--BEAUTIFUL!!
Prayers of gratitude that Darth's surgery went well, and prayers of healing for him, and for a good night's sleep for him and Judie!
Paula, prayers for Tony & Heather.
Lynn, prayers that Liesl will get back on schedule.
onewith, welcome to you! Drop by anytime!
Well, pretty tired tonight, so think I'll call it a day. The porch light is on, and both security systems are enabled. Prayers said for everyone, and for all creatures. Sleep well, everyone. God bless, and goodnight.
Love all of you! :o] P.S.--Emma says, "ZZzzzzzZOZZzzzz..."
Been reading, see that Rangers WON!!! Yippee!
Good to hear of recovery for DanaMo's Dad, Lori's Mom, Dennis, and hope Darth takes it easy. Lynne 2, that does not sound like acceptable blood counts on Steve.
2nd opinion! Prayers for all &
Pleasant Feather Dreams ;>)
TY to Jo, Steve, Marie and all responsible for our wonderful day ☺
Good evening. Not caught up yet but see names are being thrown around.
I'd like to enter my choice - Rhett [But(insky)ler] & Belle. I'm thinking of 'Gone with the Wind.'
Rhett & Belle sounds southern to me.
Anyway, off to catch up. Pictures I've seen so far are great!!
MEMA JO YOU HAVE ONE OF THE BIGGEST HEARTS I HAVE EVER SEEN AND YOU ARE A MOST GENEROUS GRACIOUS LADY.SO PROUD YOU ARE OUR MATRIARCH
My delete...I am sorry to say I have been frantically looking for my list so I can send my Christmas cards and I can not find it...I wonder if when LYNN comes back I could ask for it again. I feel so embarrassed...
Well I truly can not find the list
:( !!!
I will say goodnight and wish everyone sweet dreams and God's Blessings.
Good morning LORI...DANAMO and the rest of the Sycamour Palace Café group. Enjoy your coffee...
BRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!!! The thermometer says 32 Degrees F!!!
Goodnight Hoda. Get out the woolies and snowshoes.
Guess I'm closing the blog tonight/this morning. At least until the morning crew show up.
Have a good day everyone. I'm off to try to get some sleep.
God bless.
Whoa, I'm still sleepy! I barely slept Sunday night because I was so excited about going to the nest and seeing everyone, and I couldn't settle down enough last night to go to bed early even though I was soooo tired!
I have many pictures to post, but need to figure out where Kate is in getting things off my old computer and onto the new.
It was so awesome to meet JudyE knowing that she had come all the way from Florida! I recognized DanaMo before I even got out of the car, JudyE, too. Can't wait to see the pictures of the Early Birds together - DanaMo, JudyE, Margy and me.
Wanda looked absolutely beautiful with her new hair! She and Jo both had their regal eagle canes and JudyE got the last one in the gift shop. My favorite gift shop find was an unusual wood eagle refrig magnet! Very cool.
ONEWITH, thank you for asking about the kittens. They all appear to be fine at the moment and I pray they stay this way. Still they are quarantined until the first of January to be sure. They get sweeter every day.
L☺ri !
Am happy to see you...
of course wish you had gotten more sleep..
better add an extra scoop to the coffee brew this morning!
Maybe the airways will be busy with reports of the fabulous Northern Lights seen in some local areas...
It was a great day and Hey! I don't think anyone mentioned the fine fare at the cafeteria;
Best Parsnips I ever had, and YOU got the bay leaf, and didn't even have to wash the dishes !
Thanks so much for all the joy you brought with you
I think I meant to say airwaves not airways;
I've been sort of going to bed for a little while...
Hope your day is a good one, and I might "see" you in a few hours back on here
gotta live up to that picture you took of the early morning crew ☺
sorry I missed you Diann....hope the reunion went well...
and that you are feeling better today
ttfn friends...
xoxox ♥
wait a minute, Wanda has new hair?
I thought it was just a new
HAIRDO! Too funny!
thanks, I needed that chuckle, Lori
Take Care...
I'm sooo excited. I managed to get my pictures loaded onto the computer before I left for work this morning so I will put them on the blog when I get home today!!!
Good morning early birds! Wow I went to bed early last night! All the excitement wore me out. Had so much fun yesterday and saw the eagles! Made my day.
Now today my dad gets to come home. Oh Kay I hope my mom can handle him! He has been told over and over that his success will depend on him following the rules. Let's hope he is a "good boy". We are also a little worried about the dog, they have an Old English Sheepdog who is just a puppy and loves papa very much. Hopefully they can control his excitement too!
I told mom to call me if she needs help, of course she insists that she is a "big girl". I am waking her up at 6 to get herself ready for the day and go over to the hospital.
Lori-did you see the video ☺ ☺ The flying labs thank you very much!!
Hi DANAMO!!!
I'm very behind on the blog today, still have to catch up and post pics... I'm so glad to hear they liked it!
Did you see the eagles yesterday?
And, I'm so happy for you, and your Mother, that your Dad is coming home today! YAY!
Yes, I had left when you did, got all the way to Antietam Battlefield and got Margy's call. I decided to turn around and go back and hope they were still there and they were! It was so exciting!
I posted pictures on my picture blog.
Oh, I'm so happy you guys got to see them. Wish I would have had my cell phone on!!! URGH!
Can't wait to see the dogs video. :)
oh I wish you could have come back too! Have you seen them before? That was my first time, last time I went to the nest they weren't there.
Yes, I've seen them, DanaMo, and I'm really glad you got to since it was your first time. ♥♥♥ Did JudyE get to see them?
Forgive me if I'm rehashing things I haven't had time to read yet.
Good Morning Eagle Pals...
Lori, don't apologize! There were lots and lots of posts and a lot of information
DanaMo - Hope all goes well with your father's return home
Good Morning Ms MARGY!
((BIG HUG))
the answer is YES
JudyE did get to see the two eagles ☺
DanaMo your pictures are great and that video of the flying labs with the tug is a riot!
teeny tiny almost invisible sliver of crescent moon in the East
G☼☼d M☺rning dear girls, dear Eagle Bead owners, dear nest visitors !!! Thrilled as can be over yesterdays get together and looking forward to your pictures LORI ! Those already posted are sooo good of each and every one of you. So happy some saw the eagles, too !
well hello there ☼HI☼ Kay ☺
Lori - and I read that your Mother is going home also? Excuse me for rehashing posts (LOL) - I can't quite keep up either ☺
Pleased to say Seth and Malcolm will be with me from 5 to 8ish this evening. Julie must do some adjunct critiqueing at Columbus State and Hugh is out of town. Jumped at the opportunity to have the boys here for dinner.
real quick Lori:
as we were leaving, we caught up with Judy in the pkg lot,(DanaWV, Wanda and I) to set up trip to Swinging Bride...everyone else had already left..
so DanaWV wisely suggested we TAKE JudyE to the bend in the road,
Voila! Soon as we pulled up, first one then the second eagle perched in the tree
knowing that DanaMo had yet to see her first eagle ever, we called her, she was, as she said, at the Antietam Battlefield cemetery...
and she made it back to see her first bald eagles ever ☺
Sounds good Kay, your upcoming evening with the boys....
☺ ☺ ☺
No doubt those sharp eagle eyes were watching you all when you were under the Sycamore Palace ! They must have been waiting for you to leave so they could zero in on their home. Surprised you could keep JUDY from scaling the tree to cut back the leafy branch we've all griped about ! Guess she's heading home now for a grand reunion with Jordyn. Safe travel JUDY !
What did you have for lunch besides parsnips ? I don't think I've ever seen those on a menu and can't say that I've missed them !☺
Judy said once she wakes up (after sleeping in...)she'll start her return trek today...
will go about 500+ mi today and the rest tomorrow.
Ditto Kay, Safe Travels, Judy...
it was a great visit.
WV was happy to have you here !
I had Irish Lamb Stew, sweet potatoes and the pasnips...
and carrot cake
and coffee
Everyone else had different things and I saw lots of empty plates afterward
Want to wish Judie and Darth good results on follow-up doctor app't today and also the check on Darth's other eye...
Wow, they must put on quite a spread at the NCTC eatery ! Nice ! Does the group always have lunch there when visiting ?
Just took a look at the Potted Plant Owls. The fluffy owlets are growing so fast and are as cute as the dickens !
KAY,
ROTFLMAO over JudyE climbing the tree to get the branch! I think we all forgot about it - for a minute. Very funny, Kay!
Yay on the Rangers...
hope they can get their First Ever World Series win...
won't happen at the home stadium though...
game 6 goes to St Louis Wednesday
I didn't fire up the coffee...'cause I'm going back for some more z's
Best Wishes for a Good Day, Everyone
ttfn xox ♥
LYNN, I put out fresh bowls of vinegar/detergent three times over two days. "Caught" a few more over night and seem to be gnat free this a.m.. May change once a door to the outside is opened. Do you change the brew that way or just leave it out for a while ? I noticed the odor dwindles after a few hours and that's when the little pests began to ignore the bowls.
Enjoy those zzzz's MARGY, you deserve a good rest ! ♥♥♥
LORI, I'm disappointed that your "purty toes" do not show in any of the pics, so far at least ! You are lookin' good and so huggable, {{{{{LORI}}}}} ! I can just see some gagging going on over this post ! LOL
THELMA, SHIRLEY, where are you gals this morning ? I'm about to head for the newspapers, but wanted to say hey before I go !
I'll need all the hugs I can get, Kay. Studies has shown the average person needs 8 hugs a day to maintain good mental health.
Oh, good grief, LORI, I'm way behind on giving and receiving hugs ! My mental health is in serious jeopardy, but then many have suspected that for years !
I sleep in a little this morning. Good morning friends.
Hello and fabulous sunny morning to you Thelma, and Buddy!
Looks like everyone had a wonderful visit.
Name suggestion for the male eagle -
Palsy - Belle's Palsy! :) JK
I love it Sharon! I think it is perfect!!!!
Good morning everyone!!!!
I'm glad most of you visitors got to see our eagles yesterday.
Wow ! Good to "see" THELMA, SHARON and SISSY all at the same time !
LOL Belle's Palsy---love your sense of humor !
Have you looked at the pics posted so far ? They look so happy and is it any wonder ?
Have a great day everyone ! BBL
DanaMO, great eagle pictures!
Love the video with the dogs and their tug. I'll have to make you another one that you can keep in the house. Those babies are hysterical. I loved watching them. Thanks for taking the video. ♥
Have a good nap, KAY!
Good morning,
I was up early. Well, I was semiconscious and downstairs. Stayed up too late.
Now it is time to get ready for bowling. I will see you later.
Good M☼rning EAGLE BUDS
Getting ready to head out Hey guess what DUH moment for me Angie just texted me Her camera is a 200X zoom you know how I said it was fuzzy some pic well that is because of the button on the right top corner of the view finder is a button I was playing with the button but didn't know its functions well when you use the buttons you don't use the big view finder you use you eye in the hole OH WELL I will know for the nest time LOL I still got some great pictures from what I see on the camera
I figured out how to post a picture on facebook of the gang I did that last nite OK I would love to stay and read but I got to go LOVE TO YOU ALL I will check in I am sure the hotel will have a puter if not I will just call someone BYE ♥☺♥
Good morning Momsters and Dadsters. Sun is SHINING at the beach!!!! Another busy day ahead. Liesl has finally done her "thangs" so all is right with the world.
Please email if any important stuff happens!!! Just don't have time to read through!
Love and miss ya' all.
Goodbye JUDYE! I was great seeing you. Be safe!!!!
JudyEIf you see this messge when you get on a computer. Try and put you pictures on your blog. Some can't get to facebook and your pictures would be so great for them to see. HUGS Gods Safe Travel and I miss you already♥
The horizontal branch that was directly over the nest is gone. :-(
It was so wonderful yesterday connecting faces with names. Right away I felt the hugs and love of the people that have come to join the blog and are NOT now new people hee hee. Lori I just love you, you are so precious, DanaMo I felt we have been so close us both know the Pries at St. Mary's.
JudyE to know you on the blog was just like I thought you would be. So full of life and loving.
I am so proud to have met the 3 of you. You have those wonderful hugs and to know you are a part of us. HUGS♥♥♥
Paula needs prayers for Tony and Heather that they may find the answer they see, and are at peace with it in their hearts.
Diann glad you made it to the Reunion. I just know you enjoyed it ( :
DanaMo your Dad comes home today. Prayers that he will take it easy and give time for Gods healing.
Lori I see your Mother is coming home also today. Prayers that Gods gives that stomach HEALING by the "TOUCH OF HIS HAND".
Kay glad Seth and Malcolm will be with you some of today ( : Kay there was so much excitment over the eagles flying in. One eagle flew some putting on "The Momster
Show" so I am thinking that was our Belle. Then flew onto a limb. Then the other eagle flew in. I don't think JudyE had even thought the whole time about trimming the
nest plants. lol
The menu was great as always at NCTC. I know my grandmother fixed parsnips. I couldn't remember what they taste like. I got them with my turkey and dressing.
Parsnips were delicious!!!!!!!
I enjoyed out guide Marie Brady. Yes young but fascinating. Loves nature. She had already told us there is a path going over to the nest. While we were waiting at the
Admin. Bld. for others to come. We told her we would be better to drive over. Some of us could not do that path. So I do believe she knew where the nest was. Just wasn't watching it for the eagles.
PLEASE CHECK EM MAIL.
Good morning to all.
Will be very busy the next few days so visits will be few and far between. Have 100 papers to read/grade, police class begins tomorrow night, Darth requires some driving to/from hospital. No need to send out a red alert. Will check in when I can.
Tried to skim over recent posts. Paula, not sure the reason but prayers for Tony and Heather.
So happy the NCTC visitors had so much fun. Looked at Margy's pictures. Not one unhappy face in the bunch. Wonderful memories for all.
Okay, need to get to work to grade as many papers as possible before heading for the hospital.
Be back when I can. Love and hugs to all.
JUDIE Good luck with your busy days...look after DARTH and I wish you both well.We will miss your posts.
Good morning all...LORI or anyone who was on the trip yesterday...none of the pictures I saw so far have LORI in them, does anyone have ones with LORI? Did she take most of the pictures?
GOOD MORNING EVERYONE...
HODA, check out my WILD AND WONDERFUL blog, there is a video and you will see and hear LORI (dark hair in a pony tail/glasses and a beautiful smile).
Just click on the thumbnail and in a moment or two, it will play for you.
I'm working on a video taken at lunch. Later~
Good Morning Everyone,
I found my way around enough to see the Momsters and the Pic's they were very nice!!!
Wait a minute....is LORI the one in the red top and brown pants, floral silk jacket....? I should have guessed with the awesome smile...
Hoda,
I really like your saying "I Came for the Eagles and Stayed for the Friend's" what a nice sentiment!!
WELCOME ONEWITH, glad you are finding your way around. Just click on my PUMPKIN, here and you will see a video from yesterday.
HODA, that surely is our LORI!
Sweet lady!
ONEWITH, you will have to go to WILD AND WONDERFUL AND CLICK on the small picture.
Great video WANDA Thank you...It is awesome that none of you spoke of the forcasted afternoon rain.I am glad it held up.
HODA, it began to sprinkle just as we were loading up our cars to go home. But, that was all it did...sprinkle. It was a God Given Beautiful day!!
Costume Lady,
Gosh I wish I was there, just seeing the nest would have been a trill. You got some really nice pictures.
ONEWITH...in April of next year, we will be attending OPEN HOUSE AT NCTC and would love for you to visit with us. It is similar to what we did yesterday, but much more to see and do. Please, keep that in mind, we would love to meet you!
Thick Thick Thick frost outside my window...well what did I expect it was 32 last night...the colour is at its maximum the past few days so now is time for the next step, some more change...
Does anyone know how I can add an avatar?? I tried
Duh, It came up...
Arnett means little eagle.
GEORGE! HIS NAME SHOULD BE GEORGE!!!! As in George Washington or George, my giant wooden eagle!!!! I vote for George!!!
What process are we going to do for naming the male eagle.
How did ya'll name Liberty and Belle? That was before my time here.
VOTE TEAM GEORGE!!!!!!
The original 4 sets of names for the parents in 2006 were:
Liberty & Belle (M, F)
West & Virginia (M, F)
Betsy & Ross (F, M)
Shepherd & Liberty (M, F)
LUNCH VIDEO on my blog WILD AND WONDERFUL...will work on others tonight...need to vacuum shop while it's empty. Lunchtime will bring on a new crop of shoppers:)
BWO update on Cam
10/20/11:
Technical Update We have a slight delay in getting the Osprey Cam back online. We're waiting for the Visitor Center contractors (who caused the water damage) to purchase our new PC, but we hope this will happen soon. Note that we will not let the PC issue delay the start of the Eagle Cam season.
Sharon, we are going to take name suggestions and then vote on the Momster group
I'll send out an email this evening with instructions!
Sharon, that horizontal branch was trimmed off last year.
Hoda, DanaMo has pics that include Lori in the group pic...and so does Wanda.
Good Morning - Tues is my day with Kristen and we are enjoying ourselves.
Except she is rearranging my dish cupboards - I hope hubby can find things
Clarification on my comment from yesterday Marie said she has always
known about the eagles' nest and where it is. Also Marie can't see it from her
office but does and will check it out as
she drives to & from her work bldg.
Thanks for the clarification Jo!
Paula Will the vote be a "POLL VOTE LIKE WE DID TO COME UP WITH THE NAMES LIBERTY AND BELLE"?
Now for the Good News I received from
the Mastrangelo boys
Joseph & Andrew with their dad down in
the back yard were going to shoot off
a rocket. They did so and it makes some noise. Lo and Behold they looked up and 3 bald eagles were circling overhead above their house. They called out to their Mom and she said she was in awe watching them circling and going higher & higher. Their dad joked them that he didn't think they were bald eagles. Well Monday was the library day and Anthony told the Librarian about the sighting and asked for some books about eagles. He brought them home and showed his dad what the eagles look like in flight. He knew he had seen them and proved it to his dad. My gd and I are so thankful the children appreciate the eagles and all things pertaining to Nature.
Good morning! Wow great story, Jo! Ahhhh....more eagle experts!!!
Slept really late this morning and did not cough during the night. Have been coughing some this morning and boys does it hurt! My stomach muscles are protesting!
WANDA.....love the two videos. I really felt like I was there. LOL Wanted to join in on the conversations.
Hallelujah Jo!
Wonderful report from the Hedgesville Family of Eagle-Watchers ☺
Enjoy your day with Kristen
nice avatar onewith ☺
Jack went to the dental specialist yesterday and ended up having a root canal done on that tooth that they put a crown on., It was a gold crown so he just drilled through it. Goes back next week to the specialist and then back to his reg dentist who will patch the crown.

Laurel called with an interesting story.....Joey took Bosco and PC (Porch Cat) to the vet yesterday. Bosco is doing great for a large, old dog. Yea!
PC is not a young female, LOL, but a 2 to 3 year old male cat. He has been neutered. Laurel was afraid the stray had all kinds of problems, but no, PC is just underfed. So, he is now getting up to date with shots and PC is now living in the garage. The garage door is left open enough for PC to go in and out, but closed at night to protect PC. Guess PC should now be called GC! LOL
If Laurel can ever get Isabelle to accept PC, PC can move to indoors. Oh, and Laurel put a catbox in the garage and PC is litter box trained. Yea!
Good Afternoon!
Jo - Exciting story to see eagles over your own yard!! Can you imagine?
Lolly - Good to know you're feeling better, but sorry the cough is so painful.
Link to accuweather reporting the Northern Lights last night:
Northern Lights Report from Last Night
The excitement from yesterday has runeth over to today. What a joyous day you had.
JudyE - Safe travels today as you make your way back to FL
Sharon - You crack me up!!! Palsy?
....LOL
Time for me to get a move on! Did not do too much yesterday after mowing. Think I will try to do a little more today and see how I feel. I sometimes think sitting around while sick, makes you feel worse than you are. Does that make sense?
Anxious to see your pictures, Lori!

[:~D] Jim
Hello Jim! Be sure to check out some
