If

If jackets get thrown on a chair, some of us pile into the middle of them and take a nap.

On the other hand….

Some of us are more attracted to dust pans.



Saturday

A quiet day. Nothing to write about. Sunny. Calm. Warm. Didn’t go anywhere. Sat outside. Watched some Australian Open Tennis. Took a walk. The dogs kicked the pillows off the couch and took a nap.


Barenaked birding

 It’s a real birding term.  It might sound funny, but it is not a reference to how much one wears, it’s about birding without optical enhancement.  All the other clues:  relative size, sounds, colors and contrasts, and behaviors, matter more.  It’s fun to do now and then. While we’re here at this park outside Edinburg though, that’s the only way we bird, not because that’s the only way we want to see birds, but because this is a clothing-optional park.  I’m sure it would be a terrible breach of etiquette to wander about with binoculars. There are many great places in the Valley to bird, so whenever we need a birding fix, we drive off to somewhere outside the park to do it with binoculars.
