It is a beautiful ride. That car would have been at the junkyard several years ago in Michigan. The salt they use on the roads in the winter. Would have turned your car into a rust bucket.

We had that big storm coming back from California, it was horrible winds rain and whatever, and I drive a squirrel in the winter, light, and all torque and no traction. At times I had to pass semi trucks and the water coming off their drive tires actually lifted my front end creating a hydroplane effect and then as I get even with the front of the truck the wind would hit me and once my grandson said I was almost sideways...I don't think it was quite that bad, but I really got scared a couple of times. Wind is something I am afraid of. My son says it's because I'm afraid a house will drop on me...but I think it comes from years of driving semis and seeing others being blown over...
I know that'a true...thanks for the compliment. I try will hard to take good care of it...
Our river is really high at the moment but thankfully it's unlikely to flood.
It's a worrying time for people in the North of England and Scotland.
I know most normal people wouldn't do this let alone take pictures of it...but then we all know...
I AM NOT NORMAL!!!

What a beautiful picture! I love it. Just perfect.
I'm glad you got the hatches battened and shuttered. Now we get to see some beautiful woodworking.?
Raining = Wood Working

The rest of them too. For a second there I thought JoesMum was back.
Mags you are the most badass 75 yo i have ever known! I can only imaging how crazy you were in ur 20’s lol
Happy Friday CDR!! I keep my visits here to a minimum since my run in with the damn leprechaun... ok ok i was drunk and fell into the jellyfish tank while he stole my wallet ?
I must have an early bird or two. I saw a junco several days ago so I started feeding again. I also have little sparrows peaking in my window and demanding I put food in the feeder. All they do is pick through it and throw it all on the ground. At least I may have sunflowers next spring ? Well I saw the little junco again today but I'm only seeing one now and then. I guess that means they haven't forgotten me ? I saw one of the smaller woodpeckers again but I don't think this one is the same kind as last year when they started showing up. This one's back feathers are mostly black with a small amount of white... like a couple of spots. Also this one will stand up to the sparrows and they pay attention. What's really interesting is my favorite magazine Birds and Blooms explained the difference in detail this latest issue. We'll see. The best way to tell is the beak between a Hairy and a Downy. The Hairy has a beak almost as long as it's head. The Downy has a short one.
Nice. Ive been feeding the birds here all Summer long. I feed mostly sunflower seeds, niger, & whole peanuts & suet cakes. Our trees & feeders attract a pretty wide range of feathered friends.
My new grandson said the same thing. He and I are a dangerous team, as he goes along with my nutsie sort iof ideas...
I have had to stop my favorite hobby of feeding birds as my new neighbor has an outside cat she can't/won't keep out of my yard...he ate birds daily! So actually I have decided to start feeding the birds for the winter and I have set a humane trap and I will send the kitty with my friend who drives door dash to Portland...not the cats fault...but taking a human for the same ride might get me in trouble...lol...altho I'd rather...
Yes it was really nice when they started showing up and demanding to be fed again. They remember me. Such a compliment ? They started landing on the window sill staring into the house and so I had no choice ??? I'm the winter food Queen ?
..........or Carol M ..........
Still no reply from Linda - she must be very busy.
I have the same trouble with my messy sparrows.
I always use sunflower hearts to try to avoid mess but there seems to be more on the ground than they eat - and they aren't the cheapest to buy!
They won't touch the niger seed they're supposed to love so that was a waste too. It seems my sparrows are very fussy eaters.
They are very messy! Especially when u shoot them with a 12 gauge ... JUST KIDDING!I have the same trouble with my messy sparrows.
