Thanksgiving Blog – Dotter Style
Since my commitment to the Propeller program is taking up most of my spare time, I’ve decided to run some of my daughter’s blog posts about Thanksgivings past. I want to share because I think you might enjoy her rhetoric, too. Besides, she’s my only daughter, I’m so proud of her, and she’s a much…
Contest Giveaway!
Well, it’s been a long time since I’ve given anything away. With more and more bloggers out there vying for free stuff and sponsorship, there’s a lot more competition for those things. I miss the days that Community Coffee so generously sponsored this blog by allowing me to give away free products to you, my…
A Guest Post by Lyle Johnson
Remember Lyle Johnson from this post? The following is his most recent fishing report, and I’d like to share it with you! BW I got an opportunity to make a trip down the bayou with my son Wesley. I can’t think of a better way to spend a day on the water or just about…
In the dark of night, on a lonely road . . .
Seems like several bloggers are under the weather. While I won’t go into all my woes, suffice it to say, keeping up with posting has been quite a chore. Though I love to have you folks visit and read, being creative takes sound mind; and that’s certainly NOT how I’ve been. For the past week,…
Wild red what
Happy Monday after the holidays, everyone! Hope you are all off to work and back at school with smiling faces! It has rained for the past two days and is still raining, so there won’t be any touring or fishing today. That leaves posting something here for your enjoyment. How about another photo from The…
Creepy! But, it’s a good photo.
Food Chain. Momma Nature’s sacred circle of life.
I luv the coming autumn season when spider webs dripping jewels of dew sparkles in the early morning sun.
So the banana spiders are out already? Must be time for fall!
Yes, Kim, isn’t it amazing? One morning this week I walked outside to the absence of humidity and the sky had a green aura like after a hurricane. I sensed the earth had tilted slightly; and now sunrise is after 6 a.m., not before.
Ooooh, I know they are necessary in the great scheme of things – but I HATE spiders! My sympathies are all with the locust. They have such a short life anyway, seems terrible to shorten it further!
I look forward to the first song of the cicada high in the live oak trees signaling the onslaught of summer; and then before you know it, the banana spider webs extend between the branches of the same oak trees, trapping the beautiful cicadas for food.
Noisy little buggers !!
One of my lovely memories of my indoor Siamese centers around a locust. She was sitting on the second floor balcony (which fronted a small, tree-lined creek) outside the kitchen, when she suddenly darted back in. You could almost hear her saying, “See, Momma, I told you I could catch a bird!” A locust had literally flown head first into her mouth and its wings were flapping on each side of her jaws. She was so upset with me when I took it away and released it!
Great story, Joan!
