Day 128

We're in Florida visiting family. Here are some pictures from our trip so far.

The lady of the hour.. Grandma Santos.



The first picture I've gotten of Caide and his teeth.



Blayre playing in the pool.



A little of the "wildlife"..

Day 89

Just some random shots from the trip to Wisconsin.

My in-laws have the FATTEST squirrels known to man in their back yard. This is probably because my father-in-law always has food out for them, but wow they are porkers.



I took a walk down to the piers, obviously no one had made this journey in some time as my footprints were the only ones.

Day 77 - Day Trip to Lafayette

Today we were out on a day trip to Lafayette for grocery and other random shopping that only the "city" can provide.

One thing I've learned more than anything else during this project is always have your camera. I almost forgot it today and actually made Mike turn around so I could grab it.

Well of course I came across things that just HAD to be photographed.

Neither items are related, other than they were both found in Lafayette.

First this... A bird that was just sitting on an interstate off-ramp sign. I'm ashamed to say I don't know what it is. A falcon perhaps? I made Mike turn into some apartment complex where I trekked over a yard, through a fence, and up to a small crick just to snap a picture of this guy.

***EDIT*** Thanks to Krysten tells me that this is a Red Tail Hawk! Thanks Krysten.***



Second, this.... A pink hearse with "Meat Wagon" on the side. How could I NOT take a picture of that?

Day at the State Park 21/365

For today's project we decided to go to the Tippecanoe State Park and find some wildlife. We are so fortunate to have such a nice park just a stones throw from our home. As a bonus, now that it's fall it's FREE!!

The wildlife was very scarce. I did see two of the BIGGEST SQUIRRELS I have ever seen. Let's just say they will have NO PROBLEM making it through winter. Unfortunately, we passed them and had to back up, by the time we got back they had run off. I was so disappointed.

Nonetheless, I did get some good shots.

















This plane was out at out "airport" on our way home. I just liked the shot.
