Workshop Project

Jason was raised with an array of two, three and four wheelers...I have never driven anything with less than four wheels and two doors. I suppose he thought that this doesn't seem fair so he found a great little scooter to restore. It's torturing me. I don't know why, because it's still too cold to drive but my inner eight year old is feeling VERY IMPATIENT.

Kitty T.V.

The window that looks out into our backyard is our cat's favorite hangout spot...because of all the birds. Jason recently picked up an Oklahoma bird field guide which stays on the dining room table near the window so we can look up all the birds that frequent the bird feeder that we liberated from the curb in front of someone's house last fall.

At one point I identified eight different bird species hanging out all at the same time: European Starlings, Common Grackles, Mourning Doves, Dark-Eyed Junkos, a Downy Woodpecker and a Red-Bellied Woodpecker, a House Finch, House Sparrows and Cardinals. There must have been over forty birds out there!

We just bought some suet for the woodpeckers and added a new type of seed mixture to keep everyone happy (including the cat).

Big Snow

We've had a REAL winter here in Oklahoma...during this last snow we all decided to take an evening walk to the park a few blocks from our house. Jesse and Tillie spotted this unusual work of art and got a real kick out of it.
