Oh Say Can You See.......Not so much

Over the new years holiday and in between funerals Poppy and I took a little trek to the Iowa boarder to visit family. Imagine just 4 hours away and within 17 miles were our kids Tony (#5) his wife Heather and our newest baby Leah and my niece Gail and her family. It was a wild fast trip lots to do and see. The bird is not Leah I guess you knew that ( we have a new computer, can't find the right pic, downloaded what I thought was Leah awwwwwwww you know the rest).

I'll digress about the eagle a bit. Remember years ago they were put on the extinct list? Well not so anymore. Apparently they roost along the missasip during the winter. The fishing is good for them and well they like it. The Brown's ( Heathers M&D) live on the Mississippi, you can almost drive a golf ball in ALMOST. With my new camera I tool several pics. They are as thick as thieves there almost look like a flock of seagulls in areas. They are pretty cool. Last time I saw that many was on a trip with my little bro Kevin back when Kate was a baby. It was strange timing to see them, and remember Kev as this week it was 16 years ago he died. Miss you Kevin.

The next few entries into the blog will be like a Freshman Comp final. I can't tell which pics are what in the new harddrive, anyway I'm going to post a mystery pic then tell ya'll about it. TTFN Teri
