Memorial Day 2011

Here's the bridge a year ago Memorial Day week-end.
Hello Shireen and family.
Overcast and humid, in the high 70s.  Wind out of the east
so trip back was easy.
Remembered my father today at Stephanie's memorial.

Son of a bitchin' bastard stole my sneakers...again.!

What the hell.  Do you really need a pair of used sneakers that badly?!

St. Patrick's Day: Bald Eagle sighting

Today was the first day back on skates since my accident September 5 of last year. Notice I now wear a helmet.
Two bald eagles were sighted near the Lock Seven Road parking area to the path. I promise the link to pictures

of them soon.
Here's to the first of many trips this season.

Spring 2011

So good to be back on the path.  Everything is awakening after our very long and severe winter.  One of the worst in memory.
The first thing I noticed out for a walk today was the honking.  The pumpkin fields of the fall are now filled with geese.  Many of them flying from field to field.  Ducks, too.
Also saw two red-tailed hawks circling by the parking area.
The old bridge to NiskaIsle is gone and work is ongoing to remove the boulder dam built to build the new bridge.

Lots of walkers out and Tom.  He rollerblades, runs and now UNICYCLES!!
