You even took care of the trash in front of the car. Great Job.

I took off Tuesday night through the rest of the week to enjoy time with my family.
So, first up, my boy and I went for a hike in the wildlife preservation area just down the road from my house.

Nice bucky-t - looks so much like where my family used to hike when I was a kid.
Bucky T, that boy of yours is sure growing up! What an awesome place to hike!
Here's a few pics of our fur-kids. I tell you, they never cease to entertain us. Miley (dog) is now 6 months old and has gained 7 pounds and 2 inches in the month she has been with us. Coming from Mexico, she sure isn't used to our cold wet weather.
Monkey (cat) has definitely come out of her grieving the loss of our other dog, Violet, but is doing her best to hide. These two aren't playing together yet, but there's a glimmer of hope!

BT: Your son has really grown into a young man. It's great you two can share great outdoor experiences so close to home.
LP: Handsome dog. I'm sure Monkey will come around.

To be honest, Andy, I think her aloofness is all part of the game. She seems to enjoy hiding somewhere and when Miley finds her she just runs to the next "in".
And as you can see, other than the top of our wardrobe, she isn't very hidden!

Good stuff. Love the area. Looks like a great place to just wander.
Well... you did the right thing. A 1998 DeVille is never likely to become a collectible classic.
The one I shot is one of approximately 35 made. 1998 DeVille... they made more than 35.

Here's a car you won't see every day. I see it around town every so often - this was shot at the local Ace Hardware. On the side it says "Mini Plym II". Just about the biggest fins ever put on a car.
I'm thinking that it started life as an ordinary 1960 Plymouth Belvedere.

I loved hiking as a kid. When I would take my girl scouts, I would make them turn over rocks and old logs. Amazing what life they found.
I went to Port Arthur this weekend, where I lived as a teenager. We were out driving around, and I grabbed this shot of some people fishing as a tanker and a fishing boat passed on the ship channel. While we were there, someone caught a pretty big flounder.

You're lucky you live far enough North that this isn't a problem. I teach my sprogs to step on and away from a downed log (except in Winter) because of the risk of biting snakes.
If you step directly over a log in warm weather, you risk startling the beast, enticing a strike.

A quick shot from my back deck. This is the pretty part of the snow storm.
Our GD's little Chihuahua, Pico, had his first snow experience yesterday and he was not amused. He was trying to figure out a way to walk around without his paws touching the snow. Couldn't wait to go back indoors.

The turning over was always done with a warning and demonstration from me first. There are some very interesting critters under those logs and rocks. The best time to do this is about two weeks into Spring. Critters are just getting started living. Babies are ready to leave the nest, critters are out of their holes, etc.
One of my Scouts had to write a paper about the most interesting thing she had ever done. Class assignment. She chose to write about turning over logs and stones while on a hike. The teacher said she was lying. I had to write a letter to the teacher explaining that as a Scout leader, this was something I had the troop do every Spring. ( I cc'd it also to the principal.)
The teacher changed her mark to an A+.
BTW, don't forget to look up overhead when on a hike.

Nice. Always wanted one, but they were priced well outside of my budget back then.
Here's one that I took a little over a year ago. We were on a camping trip and took a half day drive looking for moose, and found this Cobra convention parked at the Moose Visitor's Center in Colorado State Forest State Park:
