Pleasant surprises....

 We were getting ready to leave this morn when there was a knock on the door...this was what was being delivered.  Don't you just love it!  I love roses, but oh, how I love what they came in.
 I will use it for years to come.  Our older daughter sent this arrangement.

 This evening on our way to the super Walmart, we ran through the strip pits.  I was going through to see if we could see any owls, but first we saw these two whooping cranes!
I actually trespassed to get a little bit closer to them.  But I did stop before I got to close because I was scaring them.  I think if you enlarge them you can see that both legs of both birds seem to be banded.
These are not the greatest pictures but I am still glad to have gotten them.

We will be busy the next few days so will be blogging when I can.  Not sure how often that will be.
