Moon Halo

On Thanksgiving evening the moon was beautiful with its halo. Mom took some pix but she said it was too cold to stay outside long enough to get very many.

Happy Thanksgiving!

This morning I had to hunt the rare and elusive Monkerkey to be sure there was enough food for all of us this afternoon: It turns out there is not much meat on a Monkerkey so I gave it to Sushi to play with while I played air banjo: Guess I will have to sing for my supper. What key is that One Note Samba in? What was that "Cat" Stevens tune?

Oh ~ Mom just said she already has the turkey in the oven and there will be plenty for Zeke and Sushi and me later. I am glad it is not a tofurkey!

Happy Thanksgiving!

Wordless Wednesday

My New Discovery

I have discovered that if I sit on the counter and stare at my empty bowl for long enough stinky goodness will magically appear so I can eat. I expect this will be very important to remember next week when Mom and my Daddy are on vacation for Thanksgiving.

Wordless Wednesday

Update: This was posted on Wednesday, November 4, 2009. I do not know why Blogger messes up the dates so often!

OK, almost wordless. These are cranes flying into Bitter Lake National Wildlife Refuge last Sunday. Bitter Lake is just outside of Roswell so we can watch the cranes flying over our house on their way in. There are thousands of them in the air, usually between 4 and 5 in the afternoon.
