COLD DARK ROOM

[EllieMay]

Hi, Roomies!
Although I’m not on the forum MUCH, I’m not TOTALLY gone.[emoji6]
Elsa and I are both excited about helping with the TORTOISE drawing!
AND we’re participating in the card exchange. [emoji2][emoji2][emoji2]

Hey Bea! Glad to know your still lurking about I’m excited about whatever is fixing to happen just because it’s new & different...Stay peaceful!

Adam is simply taking time off with wife and tortoise. All is well with them. Regarding the sketching of tortoises, here is a sketch I find to be wonderfully done …View attachment 253023 the woman who drew this has the username of…all I’ve got is her email address and I hold those in close.
I contacted her and she drew this of my tortoise “Little Ricky”. She used ink which is unforgiving if y’all make a mistake. View attachment 253024

I can’t believe that that is a sketch!! Wow!!!

 

[Maro2Bear]

Baaaaack. Saw about six or seven Bald Eagles today...a few were even sitting on rock jetties at water’s edge!

 

[EllieMay]

Good night all! I actually can’t wait to go back to work tomorrow!

 

[Cowboy_Ken]

After entertainment for the eyes from Mark, from me a little enterteinment for the ears:
Lionel Ritchie, "Hello"

That was wonderful Sabine. Such a poignant song and beautifully sung as ever! My favourite so far. I am feeling all warm and snuggly now [emoji177]

 

[CarolM]

This pic is very beautiful. I would call it art.

Good evening all

The concert was WONDERFUL!

As we arrived at the Barbican a car was delivering dozens of pizzas... it looked like one each for the Orchestra for dinner [emoji23]

Brian Cox, who’s a particle physicist rather than the astro physicist I said earlier, gave a really interesting piece on each of the planets before the orchestra played the appropriate movement (stop sniggering if you’re thinking of Uranus [emoji849]) While the music was being played, images of the planets were screened on the backdrop. It was brilliant. There were lots of children in the audience, probably lured by the professor rather than the music.

Ecologist Daughter has been out doing voluntary work with dormice again today. As you know they aren’t actually mice, but they are very cute. This nestbox contained three babies

Those babies are so cute. And the Orchestra looks awesome and something i would love watching.

Evening all. The SUN has been out all day long, beautiful blue skies, never hot, no humidity. No r a i n. Yes, was out kayaking since 1000 this morning with another big trip scheduled for tomorrow.

Here’s one pix of the scenic area we were paddling along the Gunpowder Falls River, just outside of Baltimore MD.

Was it good.

 

[CarolM]

Morning all. Getting ready to start a 12hr shift at work today. Hope everyone in the CDR is doing well and has a great day!

Hope you are not too tired.

 

[CarolM]

Oh dear - he really is upset with us!
I wish I knew what we'd done to offend him.
If it is me I'd like to know so that I can apologise - I would never deliberately upset anyone.

I don't think it was you. I think there are other things going on. He will come back when he wants to.

 

[CarolM]

She sells sea shells on the sea shore - much easier to type than say!!!

Totally. Lol

 

[CarolM]

Good morning Heather, it's quite a chilly drizzly day here at the moment - hopefully it will brighten up later.
Hope you and your family have a lovely Sunday!

(think the enclosure is Carol's torts - but you're right.........it is colourful and pretty)

Thank you ladies. My torts are totally enjoying it and the sun. Although today is overcast.
