Every time it's the same ....I turn off the cake icon, and "someone" keeps turning it back on
You're having too much fun , Patrice ! I see your intent, and thank you for your thoughtfulness in wanting people to enjoy their lives and have fun . Many thanks , everyone for your kindness , too.
Nessy, that lamb is adorable. I want to pet this one, as I do at the fairs . Any of them that approaches me in their pens , I love to pet them.
OhioBoy, its a lifelong affliction ! Everything I see , my mind automatically analyzes angles, colours, and impact of images. Human or animal. And especially mountains. I can't escape those observations, on the job or not !
Always like seeing that meme, Hoss ! My favorite .
Turtledale, that meme is a hoot ! I like it !
Bob J, love those wee owls.
Thank you, everyone.
I am cooking today, and enjoying the snow . The mountains are gorgeous. My most favorite songbird has been singing for me , Varied Thrushes. They look much like robins. They are very uncommon and only heard for way too short a time , mainly in March. I have several I've been enjoying this morning. They only sing in early mornings and at dusk in the eves.
I have been notified that a few of the veterans from my beloved town to the north , that I've been reading good stories to every week , want to take a drive to stop in for a visit. I never want them to go out of their way, but they insist. Like Patrice, there's no arguing with them when they make up their minds ...
I'm gathering up a couple of YouTube videos of Varied Thrush singing to share here . I would wager that most folks have never seen nor heard these unique, uncommon birds before. They need dense large growth forests in the northwest . The forested roads down to Stanley, Idaho, are filled with their songs in spring, as well as other similar thrushes.
Here it's your birthday and your'e giving us all a gift sharing the varied thrushes with us. You brighten our lives with your art and your outlook and insights. Your'e the best. Now go burn some powder in one of your favorite old friends. Happy Birthday Sharon.
It was a fun afternoon with my veteran friends on the estate. Vets have a humor unique only to themselves . Especially amongst each other. They tease unmercifully and oftentimes rough , no language censor, either. They simply refuse and say what they want. They're a hoot for me. One is retired Special Forces . How I met him is a story in itself. He is the guy who keeps teasing me to trade his 300 Weatherby for mine. Because of the beauty of the wood grain in mine. Another is a Black Hawk pilot , two others, crew Chiefs , and still others gunners and a fuel tanker pilot. Tremendous men, scars and all. I wouldn't have them any other way. I love the new program of reading to them from good story material every week. It is good for the mind , at any age, especially for vets who enjoy this.
RdFx, yes these birds are very different. Not the most melodious of the list, but there's an ethereal, other worldly feeling they put to deep woods when you hear them. The slight echo after each note that typifies sounds deep in the trees makes them even more surreal .
Thank you, Trapstick Man, for that German Chocolate cake !
Dan B., thank you, and yes we did a little target shooting with an assortment of 1911's before supper !
Charlie, so happy your surgery went well. You'll be crawling all over those combine harvesters in no time.
