My folks sent get wells for The Patient –
The Patient is spending another night at la hospital. The pain is too much to control, so she’s gonna stay where the experts can help her best. Should be bringing her home in the morning.
Thanks Mom & Pop, you guys are awesome. She’ll see this on her phone, from the hospital room, and it’ll make her want to get home even more.
Quite the blur really. Even though it seemed to take forever –
Recap tomorrow, but things went well. Thanks to everyone at Swedish for taking care of Marla for me –
What is this?
Okay, time’s up. If you guessed it was the zero-five flamingo and his friends at the zoo taking afternoon naps, you get five points.
Sleeping in the rain. On one leg. With their noggins tucked under a wing.
Silly birds.
Stuff that makes you think Spring might be on the way –
Spotted on today’s walk. Who knows, maybe Spring is on the way?
Unless they’re in close proximity, then, all bets are off –
This could get ugly…..
Spring weather in Seattle in February? You’re nuts if you’re not out taking advantage of it. 55 and sunny after work today, so I went for a walk around the lake.
Everybody was out –
The Bald Eagle was high on his perch on Duck Island –
This little bugger thought I might have food, so he paddled over –
Apparently we’re mourning the loss of this tree over the Winter –
I swear, I thought this guy was walking his pet sheep –
Then I spotted a duck who got water in his ear. Ever seen a duck act like a dog?
Anyway, good afternoon light. Made for some decent photos, motivated me to act a little healthier, and reminded me of why living here is awesome.
Tomorrow it’ll rain and be 43 all day, but today was all-right.
Very cold deckhands. Guiding the 235 foot Coastal Navigator into the large lock –
It’s a reefer no less, even colder!
You like seafood? Thank this man.
Keeps the pigeons, gulls, and other assorted thieves, beggars and miscreants, at bay –
Now, if we could only do something about those bothersome dogs….
Sincerely,
The Cats
This honker hasn’t missed too many meals –
I asked if he was good for anything other than eating and pooping? He told me ‘sure’, and then proceeded to show me this trick –
Nobody likes a wise ass. Except me. I thought it was funny.
Silly goose.
Evidence –
Cloudy, 40 degrees, and no leaves on the trees. It’s still Winter.
