Consequences…..

Here is my "I am getting old" commentary of the day...


There are consequences for our actions…

The Penn State football coaches kept the focus on their football legacy vs what was going on with one of their own. It took a while, but it caught up to them.

In this area, we had a bunch of football players get into a brawl before a playoff game. School policy is that they would be suspended and not be able to play ball. They did play though - the coach wanted to make the playoffs and knew that he would not be able to without these players. Guess who is looking at losing his job because his focus was on the wrong set of consequences …

Lunch Is Served!

I know...this has turned in to a picture blog lately.....but I want to share!!




Oh Hai!




Image

Lunch is served!




(we are inconsistent with what we offer – these apples had been in the fridge since January…..the neighbor feeds them ALL the time – so much so that they come running when her car or house door opens)




Image

Nom, Nom, Nom….




Image

Bring a friend! Invite the family!






Image


Thanks Lady!

Walk In The Woods...

It's a lovely day for a walk in the woods....

It's a lovely day for a walk around a pond....

Image

Oh look! That caterpillar is ready for the 80’s revival!

A bit closer…just in case anyone thought they were two dogs in the tree….

MIA Pony...

He has been missing in action for a while....well, Pony was on sabbatical in Newport, RI!




Pony in front of the Jamestown Bridge on Route 138. Not as exciting as the Newport Bridge, but Pony was being responsible and did not want to hold up bridge traffic...lest they think he was a jumper....

Image


Pony at the RI statehouse preparing to protest...ducking behind a light post while the fuzz drove past...

Leaving On A Jet Plane...

In a few hours, I will be on a plane headed South.

It has been two years since I flew into this specific airport.

A whole lot has changed in those 730 days.


Definitely time to make some new memories!!!

Snowy Lunch....House 2....

The deer at our second snowstorm locale had a bit of a better selection of noms...

Image



Oh Hai!



Image

And it also attracted an 7 or 8 point buck....


Possibly more but we were not going to get closer to count!


Image








Snowy Lunch....House 1....

In the middle of the snowstorm, we saw a hungry figure in the snowfall....


She's here....the Phantom....of the Snowstorm!!


Image

Yes, we fed them Cheez-its...our deer food supply was a bit limited...


Image


And they liked it!




Image








October Snowstorm Aftermath....

And the next morning, Mother Nature gave us some sun....so we could properly see the damage...

Image



Image
Yeah, just plow around the downed tree...
