    I suggest you exercise great care and wait a few years before you suggest any other changes.

    Above all, if the subject comes up, and she looks at you and says "That's One!" ... just offer to take her out to dinner. Don't ask me how I know!

    Had a ride in a Nissan Leaf yesterday…SIL bought one to drive to work, and run errands with… It is actually a very nice ride, and his work sells him recharge power for $25US a month, while he is inside working.. He has Solar on the Roof of his place, Grid-Tied, so most sunny days he feeds enough back to the Grid to easily recharge the Leaf, that night, and he gets the Off-Peak price for that power as well… Not a bad deal, for their family, from what I can see…

    I started at the beginning of the thread recently, and just got to Ganado's picture in #921. I have a similar one. This little hummer was pooped out lying on it's side outside the back door one day when I came to work about three years ago. I thought it was dead from flying into a window (we find sparrows in that condition occasionally). But when I looked closer I could tell it was still breathing. So I mixed up some sugar water, picked it up carefully and started feeding it from a spoon. At one point it flew off my finger, circled out about five feet and came back in at knee level. I lowered my hand and it landed on my finger again. Fed it some more sugar water. Eventually took it over to a flowering rhododendron around the corner so I could actually start working. Total time was around 20 minutes. Hummingbird 2. Hummingbird 3. Hummingbird 1.

    Americans think 100 years is a long time. Europeans think 100 miles is a long drive.

    My Chevy finally passed my Mercedes as my high mileage car. It's an hour drive to get to an interstate highway from here, so my annual mileage tends to be above average.

    Harvest time. Sweet Muscadine grapes. I picked two gallon bags full before I took a tumble off the step ladder and decided I'd picked enough for today.

    I spotted this Egret on my lunch hour. Had to drive all the way around the strip mall to get a better look. No fish up there, but what a view.

    I've been working at the coast for about the last 2 years ,, and the few times I've been out on the piers fishing,, I have more blackbirds stealing bait than I do seagulls . That's something I don't ever remember seeing.

    Blackbirds like starlings or larger ones like crows? I haven't been fishing at the beach or pier in a very long time, so I haven't noticed any changes. The only thing stealing my bait was little buck toothed pin fish.

    Stolen from Egypt I assume. There are more Egyptian obelisk outside of Egypt than inside. Eight in Rome alone.
