Tuesday - May 23, 2006
Yesterday I lounged around most of the day reading books (James Patterson & Iris Johansen) and catching a little news on TV.
In the afternoon, Pa started working on the preliminary drawings for the apartment. My measurements were off, so the house is now 1400 square feet. My kiva fireplace may be a casualty to the new measurements - either that or it will be modified somewhat.
Today we went shopping early, came home to take a nap, then took a ride up to see the baby eagles. While driving up a side road to see if the quinces were blooming yet, a baby fawn hopped off the roadway and tried desperately to get through the fence and into a meadow. Another truck pulled up beside us - neighbors who'd seen the mother cross the road and Baby too terrified to try. They'd backed up so the baby couldn't see them to let him get across...and that's when we drove up and spooked him. Anyway, Baby found a hole and pushed through then scampered off to find Mom. All's well that ends well.
The quinces were not flowering, they already had small fruits. We puttered around to look at the view from above the caves on the creek bank, then drove home.
We then took a walk around the back acreage with the dogs. Echo only ran off once after a squirrel. Pa had placed the game camera by the stump where we put out corn...these photos are what we got.
If you look real close to the left of the stump you'll see Mom's cat, Tiger...
Two raccoons are eating the corn...
Up in the right corner...a wild Pa tries to check the camera's photo capacity without triggering the motion sensor...he failed! LOL
