I went fishing yesterday and walked up to a Canada goose sitting on a nest with 3 eggs. She made her nest right next to the creek and didn't move until I was about 15 feet away. I didn't see her until I got that close and at that point she hissed and started walking around with flapping wings. I always thought they flew north to nest. Next time I go there I probably see the chicks swimming in the water. Their nests right on the ground look awfully vulnerable to predators though.” 5:36:27 AM 5/11/03 “I wonder if goose eggs taste any good. Probably not.” 8:22:28 AM 5/11/03 Artex “Goose eggs are great! They're just a lot bigger than chicken eggs is all. I'll be getting ready to head for the Smokies sometime tuesday or wednesday.” 9:14:25 AM 5/11/03 re: goose eggs “Interesting, I've never heard of such a thing! :-)” 10:17:43 AM 5/11/03 “ahh, I'm awake, what'd u all wake me up so early for... 1:49... nevermind.” 2:00:59 PM 5/11/03 “3 pm, diddly squat happening today, and I can't wait for tomorrow to start. Bummer day.” 2:11:28 PM 5/11/03 “Great day! I'm finally starting to get over this illness and the sun is out too (the first time in what seems like forever) Anyway I'm going back outside now, latters!” 2:18:01 PM 5/11/03 “It's 94 with high humidity and very little wind. Outside's kinda bummer right now.” 2:22:13 PM 5/11/03 “I've got my air conditioning working again so I'm a Happy Boy! It was getting a leetle warm over here Thursday and Friday (around 90). I put some cool water in a squeeze bottle and squirted the weasel a couple of times as a precaution against hyperthermia -- they can't take temps much over 85, so I'm told.” 2:43:14 PM 5/11/03 “Weasel? YOu have a weasel?” 2:49:55 PM 5/11/03 “YES, and she's an air conditioning junkie, LOL Fur coat in May... what a nutjob.” 3:18:23 PM 5/11/03 “Thank God you have a weasel. Otherwise the TMI meter was pegged.” 3:23:39 PM 5/11/03 “THAT'S for sure, LOL” 3:27:51 PM 5/11/03 “you know, "squirting the weasel" is a good way to raise body temperature...” 3:33:11 PM 5/11/03 Squirting the Weasel “I think I know the name of my next band...” 4:18:13 PM 5/11/03 “The weasel was not amused... <G>” 4:35:04 PM 5/11/03 “Yay! It's finally monday! Time to get things rolling! Woo Hoo!” 7:55:30 AM 5/12/03 “i don't like mondays” 8:01:23 AM 5/12/03 “Artex- There was a great band playing around here called "Lick the Marmot"! Just in case you think of that one- it's already taken.” 8:03:40 AM 5/12/03 “Talk about a dangerous hobby....” 8:05:53 AM 5/12/03 “buncha dang marmot-lickers....” 8:06:51 AM 5/12/03 “I never can get close enough to the marmots to touch em, much less lick them (as if I'd want to). Morning all! Treebait your first Mother's day didn't go well? No massages or breakfast in bed? (none here either, don't feel bad =) ). Did get to spend a great day with my family and I got a really beautiful card, that kinda caught me off guard. Got to have brunch w/ my mom and dinner w/ the mom-in-law. I don't know what we'll do next year when the step-mom-in-law will be living in the area too!” 8:16:33 AM 5/12/03 “Good Morning, Well, today is the supposed to be the last dry day in the next 5 days to come. What's up with that? A nice long weekend and it's supposed to rain each day. We do need the rain, but too bad it couldn't rain and just leave.” 6:46:53 AM 5/22/03 “it's been a while since I have seen this thread. Good morning all. I shouldn't even be on this darn computer, too much to take care off until I leave this afternoon. I hope you all have a great hike/trip/weekend. Busted my darn head a minute ago, it's even bleading. I am such a...ahh, I can't even find words for my stupidity!! Rain here! All over SC rain. Hope I don't have rain all the way into TN.” 6:49:55 AM 5/22/03 “Well, it sucks to be me because it already started raining here during the night. We're supposed to get 2-6 inches between today and tomorrow. We just started a retaining wall project in the back yard, what a mess!” 6:51:26 AM 5/22/03 “I'm UP !!! Good Morning All !!! This was the second morning in a row that the dern hospital called wanting help in the middle of the night... grrrrrrrr.....” 7:23:45 AM 5/22/03 “Good morning all, it started raining yesterday early morning and has been socked in ever since. We needed the rain to wash all the pollen out of the air, because a lot of us were getting near strangled from allergies.” 8:32:33 AM 5/22/03 “Ha Ha Ha!!! It's sun shining here today and supposed to be that way through the weekend. Highs in the upper 70's and low 80's!! WoooooooHooooooooooo! It's about time!!!!!!” 9:21:45 AM 5/22/03 “. ¦ P .” 9:30:26 AM 5/22/03 can't get off this darn computer... “...but I have to leave! Just wanted to let you all know how much I love you! (giggle) TT means the world to me (even moer giggles). My life would be nothing without you guys. (okay, that's enough, I really have to hit the road before I go nuts) I am in a strange mood today...sorry...I got to get out of here... "see" you all next week.” 9:41:59 AM 5/22/03 DRY??!! “It's been raining steadly in Charlotte NC since Sunday...got some sun on Tues... now storming since Tues nite...ugh... I am ready for clear skies..” 9:46:09 AM 5/22/03 “Way too dry here in Flagstaff--but beautiful. We have a second story portch that we spend a lot of time on this time of year--nice place to be. Temps in the low 80s today which is pretty warm for us. Nobody has air conditioning here--just fans.” 9:50:29 AM 5/22/03 “Correction: we no longer have a retaining wall project in the back yard. We now have a linear pond. Anybody want to go for a swim?” 9:54:23 AM 5/22/03 “Gemini Where are you bping in TN? How'd ya whack your head? HAve fun” 10:57:25 AM 5/22/03 “Gemini knocked herself Gah-Gah.” 11:00:50 AM 5/22/03 “Weird I don't ever think I remember Gemini giggling...” 11:38:54 AM 5/22/03 “Sorry about your head, Gem. <ouch> Be sure to clean it Very well... bad place for an infection. A friend of mine did that and had to go on some heavy-duty antibiotics. Check that SPF, Mary... <G> No Thirsty Thursday at the ball field tonight. THAT'S for sure! How about some mud pies, Skully?” 1:39:48 PM 5/22/03 “Who said you couldn't get up?” 8:18:39 AM 5/27/03 “Hey it is sunny this morning and blue skies are out there.

Muggy already. ICK. My garden looks like a jungle now. I go away for a few days and it takes over. Time to go prune it back into submission.” 7:43:00 AM 5/29/03 “I'm awake... on my way back to bed. Probably be moving boxes, packing crap, moving crap... we pack the truck and everything tomorrow, and we're moving on saturday.” 7:49:47 AM 5/29/03 “Good morning! This weather is really weird. Gloomy and rainy for the last 4 weeks. 4 inches of rain over the weekend and more rain and flood watch today. All the trails are flooded. If this keeps up we'll need a boat for the trailhead.” 7:37:44 AM 6/04/03 “We're expecting more rain here. THe problem is it'll be 90 degrees, 99% humidity, and no breeze most of the day. Ick.” 8:58:09 AM 6/04/03 “kewl, nice suggestion i am playing it now Feel like throwing in the towel don't be a fool They're out to knock you out, put you down For the count Watch the left, watch the right, below The belt They'll run you round and round it's plain to see It's never gonna stop they'll run ya till you drop There ain't no power around can keep a good man down Chorus 2: There's still some fight in me That's how it'll always be Hold your head up high, look 'em in the eye, never say die Get up and make it work You say that love has got you down well that's bull If love has got you down then love can pick you right back up There ain't no power around can keep a good man down Walking down a dead end street No mercy at your feet They're holding all the cards, making things so hard, before it goes too far Get up and make it work Get up and make it work Chorus 1 Chorus 2 Get up and make it work Get up and make it work Get up and make it work get up and make it work” 9:07:57 AM 6/04/03 “Charlie Kilo = tilt” 9:13:19 AM 6/04/03 Jump to Page << prev
