Pleasant run … And then surprise company!
Nikispeak early in the morning!
Early this morning Niki and I woke up and we sat in her bedroom chatting in hushed tones so the rest of the house would not wake up. During the one hour chat, the topic came up about a livecam set up by Berry College in an eagle’s nest that she saw. (You can show your kids, it is very cute : www.berry.edu/eaglecam).
In any case, she was excitedly telling me about the egg hatching and the mom taking care of the baby eagle, feeding it and all that. Then, she mentioned that in the evening, the “husband” eagle flew in.
Barely concealing my amusement, I asked her how did she conclude that it was the “husband” eagle?
Niki just shrugged her shoulders and said “Oh! It was constantly fighting the mother eagle”!!!!
I conceded that no further proof is required 🙂
Vanished in thin air!!
Where is Rumsfeld when you really need him?
Cool morning run
Funny!
From the bartender’s corner – Purple Rain
Here is a suitable drink for a rainy and wet day – Purple Rain.
Gin, cranberry juice, sweet and sour, sparkling water and blue curaçao.
I understand this can be served in a martini glass or a highball glass. Was not in a mood to waste too much drink (alone at home today), so made it in a martini glass…
Run in rain
Two surviving members of the Chalupa clan today. Trail run in rain and cold. The near desolate trail was incredibly beautiful in the rain. The overnight rain had the creeks gushing with water. The big trees were dripping constantly.
As we finished up our run, a lady who was just starting her run, summed it up best as we passed each other – “What a beautiful morning”!
Amen!!!
