2 Jan., 2010 -- Got the feeling you're being watched?

Bald eagle was circling the airport... looking for a landing zone?

Could have skidded in on our pond...
It's so cold out there, but the bamboo is still green.

How cold was it... these frost crystals lasted until noon.


Here are some classy landings! Found this on YouTube.

1 Jan., 2010 -- It's brand new!

It's a brand new year, and a brand new American Champion Aircraft. That's Ron and son Clint.

Ben, Zack and Luke got in some flying today, too.


I could have been shooting aerial photos today, such clear air is so rare.
However, there is still snow on the ground in Oklahoma and Kansas.
So, no go.

31 Dec., 2009 -- Have a great new year!

Lemon scented geranium reaching for some sunlight in the west window.
Snow's about gone today, but Iowa's still got troubles!

28 Dec., 2009 -- Happy Birthday, G'pa Allen

Born in 1941 (this would be some time in 1942, don'tcha think?) and March, 1981.

LAD's Gingerbread House became a Gingerbread Shed today.

Sugar blow-out!


Grant thumbed through an old photo album, his old baseball days, and then Ralph watched Grant and Devon get married! Well, back in 1993.
