The Eagle Has Landed. Er…Hatched
Morning everyone! Well, after a very stressful time yesterday when Ma Eagle seemed to step on and crack the egg open before the chick was quite ready, the little one appears to be doing well. Its sibling has not yet hatched, but hopefully we’ll have another addition to the nest shortly. Click HERE to go to the live camera. Come over and say hello to our new fuzzy gray bobblehead! He’s sooooo cute…
Egg Hatching Day
Today’s the big day! Our eagles are about to become parents again. The first egg should begin hatching sometime today, and its sibling should join him/her two days after that. Click HERE to go to the live camera feed, and keep your eyes peeled. The weather is supposed to be decent for the next few days, so I hope at least some of you out there get to see the big event. So exciting!
I got something cool in the mail this week. My new CCT friend sent me a DVD, commemorative coin and lapel pin, just because he’s a nice guy. I’m dying to watch the DVD, but I have to hold off until I get these second round of edits finished for my first Callie Croix release, and then finish off my next ranch story.
In other exciting news, it’s finally baseball season here. It’s been extremely chilly and windy here in these parts, and I have to tell you we’re all sick to death of it. Let’s hope it warms up fast so that my weasels actually enjoy heading to the ball park!
Civil War Milestone
For all you fellow Civil War freaks out there, you must be in heaven right now. Yesterday was the 150th anniversary of the start of the Civil War, marking the bombardment of Fort Sumter in Charleston Harbor, SC. I’ve been there, of course. I’ve been to a lot of places pertaining to the war. It holds a strange fascination for me, and I can’t remember what got me hooked in the first place, but there you go.
I’m over at Writers Gone Wild today, talking about this quirky obsession of mine, so click HERE to drop by and take a peek.

It’s finally spring! My favorite season of all. Here in Vancouver it’s still chilly, but at least the sun’s come out a few times and we’re desperate for more of it. My little garden is slowly coming to life, which is great, but I’ve yet to re-paint the fence and do a last time cleanup of the yard. In a couple weeks I should know how bad the black vine weevil infestation is going to be this year. Every year I hope and pray the nematodes have killed them all, but each year I’m always severely disappointed. Keep your fingers crossed for me!

Hope all of you are doing well out there. I’m just getting over an awful bug so I haven’t written in a long while. Plan to fix that this week.
