We always appreciate visitors, both friends and animals. In the past couple of weeks we had friends with or without a dog visiting and it’s always nice. But our feeders also have nice visitors. While they are meant for birds and always have bird visitors we also get an array of other animals. In AnnContinue reading “A special visitor”

May you live in interesting times
Well, we sure are living in interesting times, but so were Germans in the 1930s. First tariffs, then vaccines, ICE, Venezula and now Greenland. He’s trying to start World War III in order to cancel the mid-term elections, but that’s still a few months away. Hopefully, Congress will stop him. Now on to some editorialContinue reading “May you live in interesting times”
Influenza and other viruses
I hope that everybody reading this is vaccinated for influenza because the flue season is pretty harsh this year. Of course a lot of people throughout the country have little idea that this is happening due to slashes in the CDC by MAHA (Make America Hurt Again). The most disturbing aspect of this flue seasonContinue reading “Influenza and other viruses”
Eugene: Day-13
I’m sitting writing this at 2:30 am PST. It’s 48F outside, which is almost as high as it got yesterday 53F. Yesterday, even though it was our last, was packed full of stuff. There were the ever-present cats – Leonard and Sheldon. There there were the last walks in the neighborhood, the last games andContinue reading “Eugene: Day-13”
Eugene: Day-12
When I got up this morning it was a lot warmer than yesterday (47F versus 31F) and while it’s overcast and foggy it’s not raining. We spent the morning yesterday outside looking at plants and listening to birds. Every year I keep a master list of “living organisms.” Last year I had 666 species ofContinue reading “Eugene: Day-12”

Eugene: Day-10
Another beautiful morning in Eugene. The day started ay 31F. Susan and I walked over to the house on Tiara Street that had a lot of bird feeders. I was amazed that somebody had a heated hummingbird feeder. Since Anna’s Hummingbirds are hear all year it sure makes sense. In fact we’ve see two pairsContinue reading “Eugene: Day-10”
Eugene: Day-9
Yesterday was our last day at Yachats. We went to the Oregon Coast Aquarium but we got to Newport too early so spent an hour at Nye Beach. We parked next to this business and I thought to myself “That’s an Italian business, it has to be.” Sure enough it was an Italian Restaurant. AmongContinue reading “Eugene: Day-9”
Eugene: Day-8
We’ll we’re on our second day at Yachats. The weather has been outrageously beautiful. It’s been in the mid-40s and sunny. Susan and I took a nice walk on the beach in the morning as we’re approaching low-tide, which will be around 1 pm. After breakfast we all went into Yachats to check out theContinue reading “Eugene: Day-8”

Yesterday we left Eugene to spend two days on the coast. We’re staying in Yachats but will be visiting various places on or near to the ocean. Once again we had amazing weather for traveling, When we got to Florence, on the main coastal highway we stopped at Fresh Harvest Cafe for lunch which wasContinue reading “Eugene: Day-7”
