A Christmas Past . . .
I love warm fuzzy stories. So, I’ll share a little one with you, if you will then share a little one with us. Deal? About four years ago, money was a little tight around Christmas, so I needed to be very resourceful about gifts for the children. Danno (17 at the time) came to me…

Anatomy of an Evacucation – Our House
PHASE 3 SATURDAY: Everything is lifted off the floors, and this jumped out at me from the wall of what was previously my older boys’ room. This reflects my sentiments exactly: As I went to the truck to leave, I took a long look around, hoping I would have a home to come back to,…

You got some great shots Wendy. Eagles are making a great comeback nation wide. We have seen so many in our travels. They are awesome birds we never tire of seeing.
They are really awesome birds. Thought of you day before yesterday, saw 3 osprey on the way back in from fishing.
I would’ve run off the road slamming my brakes seeing one of those magnificent birds!!!!! I know they winter here around Caddo and Lake O The Pines, but have never seen one except when we lived in Alaska…saw them all the time…..and was ALWAYS in awe of their powerful presence and breath taking beauty……You have inspired me to start watching for them locally. May have to run over to the lake today for a peek.

I still have family up that way, but I don’t get up there nearly as often as I’d like. Always enjoy your comments. That bird was GORGEOUS! Oh, did I mention I saw 3 osprey coming back from fishing Thursday?
