good morning scott! I trust you are enjoying your vacation??


Why yes of course! We went to the harbor and watched about six bald eagles pluck fish from the harbor - they sure are impressive birds :thumbsup:

I have a lake by home here that we trout fish on that has a good population of eagles, most days they do better than us! lolol pretty birds .. you can get within spitting distance of the loons there too, coooool

No, he isn't. OK, well not that he's hideous, but I mean that was not a factor. :roll:

Yeah we get to see them here also.. Although we do see more osprey fishing. Osprey carry their fish.. instead of cross ways.. they turn them face forward so they can see where their going.. it is quite funny...

we cleaned the garage instead.. the folks got one of those big honkin roll off dumpsters and we tossed stuff for 5 hours.
The garage has not been cleaned since I moved away from home some 20 years ago and my dad is a packrat with cats.. uuughhh..... :crazy:
I counted no less than 25 5 gallon pails full of assorted CRAP which we mostly tossed... just alot of junk... good to have them to the point where they can sort and rearrange on their own.. the big stuff is moved.


:thumbsup: :thumbsup:

dumpsters are nice... :D
