3 Things About Steve:
- I like the outdoors (just in case you didn’t already know).
- I like the color blue.
- I like antique rustic decor.
3 Things About Muffin:
- Me like soft beds.
- Me like bouncing on my human.
- Me like open windows.
Questions From Keziah:
- What is the craziest thing you have ever done (or one of them)? Oh my, that’s terribly hard to choose, there are so many. Well, there was the time I was climbing…wait, I haven’t written about that one yet. Um, oh, how about the time I got myself stuck in an old cellar for several hours with a skeleton and nearly had a bear join me.
- Are you reading any book right now and if so, what book? Yep, it’s called, “Have you considered”.
- What is your favorite thing to write about? Nature. Fiction too now.
- What is your opinion on this whole coronavirus thing? It is real, it is serious and I wish people would take it seriously. If people don’t want to care about themselves, please care about others.
- Would you rather explore the bottom of the sea, or the vast amount of celestial space? Hmm, the bottom of the sea would mean being in some kind of submarine, in which case I would develop claustrophobia, so NO to that one. If out in space I would have to be in some sort of space ship, in which case I would develop claustrophobia, so NO to that one. Hmm, nothing left, so guess that means no to both.
Now I’m supposed to give a link to my best post. I don’t know which is the best one, so I’ll leave that one up to you.
Now, My Questions For My Nominees:
- Do you like to eat breakfast and why?
- What would you prefer to drink in the morning, coffee, tea or milk mixed with pineapple juice?
- Do you, or have you at one time, had a garden?
- Do you prefer to read ebooks or real books?
- Do you enjoy cooking on a BBQ?
Now For My Nominees:
I know that’s only 3 and it says 10-20 in the rules. But what I did was add the 10 with the 20 to get 3. How? Add the zeros together and you get zero. Add one and two together and get 3. Simple. Meow, meow=Me teach my human that one!
Thanks again Keziah! I hope everyone has had an enjoyable day, or is having one depending on where you live, and God bless!
Steve and Muffin.
Daily Pics #140.
Good morning on this terrific Tuesday! This is such beautiful weather we are having now. My walk to the river yesterday was fantastic. The sun was shining brightly, just a gentle southerly breeze and sitting on the bench was just so relaxing. There was a lot of bird activity, though most of them were not cooperating for pictures. Many new birds were around, mostly various species of warblers which are some of our most colorful birds. Unfortunately they are also very small birds so it’s necessary to be fairly close to get a good photo of them. But they tend to stay higher in the trees so that doesn’t work so good.
I have come to the conclusion that the best fishing must be on the other side of the river. That’s where all the fish eating ducks like to go and also the kingfishers. I would love to get a picture of a kingfisher, one bird high on my list, as is the common flicker, which isn’t too common around here it seems. Oh well, one of these days.
And here we go with today’s spring pics…
The wonderful granite rocky hills that dominate this area reaching upward from the river shore.
All of these granite hills being covered with pines, along the river here it’s mainly white pine and red pine.
I did, however, get a better picture of a brown creeper as it creeps it’s way up the trunk of a white pine.
I hope you all have a wonderful day, stay safe and God bless!
Steve and Muffin.
