Call of the Wild

In the movies, have you ever noticed the protagonist who happens to be an author always has an upstairs room with a view?  And that view never has fingerprints on the window or a screen hindering the shot?  Not so with this semi-author protagonist.  As you know I get side-tracked....quite a lot!  Notice I haven't posted for a couple of days?  I wasn't out of town without wi-fi connection; I've just been side-tracked.  Nature provides all the ADD stimuli to keep me off track.

Just yesterday, Boy and I were driving down our country road and he points and exclaims "What the...?"  I kid you not, there was a flying bicycle circling up above our heads.  Do you know how hard it is to keep on the road while staring at a flying bicycle?  Let's just say, I'm glad I wasn't driving on Mo-Pac in Austin or I-35 in San Antonio!


If there had only been a moon for this thing to pass by~ Perfect shot.

So there I am weaving back and forth.  Thankfully, no one was around but I HAD to take a picture because I think some of you think I hit the bottle each and every day.  HA....I flying see DO things.  Hiccup.

My computer is in front of a window looking out the backyard.  I have many opportunities to, well, not get anything done.  What's that in my peripheral vision?


Do you see what I see?

Here I am!


Then I saw something red swoosh by.  It's a good thing I keep my camera near.


Where's my wife?


I thought she was with me? Why is there a pooper scooper here?

Here I am! (animal conversation seems to be the same)




I have also noticed some hawks gliding and circling around.  I'm shutting my shades if I happen to see him swoop down on my little buddies.  I do not want to witness "the circle of life" like that!  Just saying.



It's time for the animal kingdom to store food for the winter.  I think our bodies naturally start reserving during this season too.  It comes in the form of lack of exercise due to "snuggling" weather; parties and all the goodies that come with it.  My goal is to move my buns and steer clear of the food trough at parties (yeah, like I'm invited to any!!!).  How about you?  Any winter resolutions?  I'd love to hear about them (it!).
