Wild times

I can remember my mom singing a song that went something like "Where there's wild men, there must be wild women; So, where did Robinson Crusoe go, with Friday on Saturday Night."

Why I thought of that when I saw this little quiz - I can't say.

We're looking for a host for the next Fun Monday. Please --- someone step up to the plate! Thanks.

UPDATE: Gattina of Writer's Cramps will be our Fun Monday Host for February 16

YEAAAAAH !

I have to say I did pretty good but not as well as I thought I would do on those animal tracks. What kind of country girl am I!

Hi Pamela,

I hope you are having a good week.

I am sorry that I completely forgot that you were hosting Fun Monday this week. Today is the first time I've posted in almost a week.

I hope there were a lot of people playing yesterday.

Well that was fun! I got 6 out of the 8, if they had shown me the raccoon sooner maybe I would have done better because once I saw it I laughed at myself for thinking the possum and skunk were raccoon.

I got about half right, and they were guesses, living in a town I don't see many animal prints, haha

I did pretty poorly, but then we don't have raccoons, bears, or bobcats around here. I am sure I would have done better identifying the skat of animals. Even without bears here, I know that it belongs to a bear if there are bells in it ;-) .

An Old Cold Spot

Image
My brother Mike emailed me this photo last night.  He said this was a goodbye salute that he snapped today in his garage where this old freezer has been chugging away since 1988.  That was the year our mama decided she was tired of bending over and digging through it.  Besides, she no longer needed the capacity and hadn't for several years. Mike and my sister-in-law  spent the next 25 years "digging" through this old freezer.  My sis-in-law was very good at keeping it and the cupboards stocked.  The two of them kept promising each other that "It is going to die soon, so we will just keep it until that day." Twenty-five years may seem like a very long life for a freezer.  It is MUCH older than that. Sears only sold Coldspot through 1976.  I thought that my parent's purchased this freezer in the sixties.  My brother said he put the serial number 'on-line' and it matched a 1953 manufacturing date.   Here is a close up of...

Apparitions in my Garden

Karmyn is the host of Fun Monday this week with a subject that is near and dear to her heart. Not to mention her knees and fingers. But I mentioned them anyway. The subject? --- What's Growing In Your Garden. As soon as I signed up I grabbed my camera and headed out the back door. Alyssum, lady's mantle, gaillardia, Jupiter beard, and a bunch of other stuff I can't remember is blooming in this photo. We didn't put as many annuals in this year so I miss all the yellows and reds that we often enjoy. But, something else showed up in that surprised me. Can it be that my yard is haunted? Cheeky little ghost! A shot from the deck near the hammock shows off some ornamental grass, petunias, pond plants ... and that bold apparitio...

Bird Voyeur

The sweet little digital camera that the hubby purchased (after I dropped our old one) has encouraged me to do a little more walking. Last week I took it with me when I walked up the "creek" path, which doubles for joggers and bikers as well. I've seen beavers, mink, deer, birds, birds, birds, and once the tail end of a bear run running away through the brush. Of course, without a camera. Now I carry it often. This time I was watching the Belted King Fisher performing an acrobatic display and chattering at the ducks and geese in his fishing territory. I was zooming in on him in a tree across the water when I spotted what I thought was a huge wasp or hornet nest very high in the tree. (Thanks to Susan for bringing up bee's today.) The heavy binoculars were at home, so I continued to try to see it through my camera. Then, a weird movement caught my eye. What I thought was a giant paper wasp nest was really a Great Blue Heron sleeping on one leg with his head ben...
