~ Leftover ~
Good morning! Yes, I am fine. Thanks so much asking. I don't think I've made it clear on what a hockey fanatic I am. LOL That is where I've been... watching the tube. I don't normally watch random shows. Sure sometimes it's on as background noise if no one is here with me, but during post season I am actually watching. Call me a freak. Once the first round gets into a groove I won't be glued to the TV. I just haven't had the chance to see a lot of the teams play all season so I like to get a 'feel.' I am ok though so don't worry. I'll be around... I'll make some leftover time. ::giggle::
Ok, I had to say that. The top picture is one I took the other day. The sun was shining and it was in the 60's yet here on the side of the road I found snow tucked away. It was to far from the road to be from the plow. It must have been a drift that made it's home near the small hill. I am pretty sure it's gone now, as it continued to be warm for the days to follow. Today... not so much. It's back in the 30's, it's raining, and they are saying it could turn into wet snow. AARGHH!!!
I also think all the birds know I got that lens. Daily there would be birds everywhere in my backyard. On the fence, in the trees, on the lawn. Since the lens arrived I've seen very very few. It's weird. It also pisses me off!!! The other night I was out back looking to see if I could see the family of deer from down the street. A different angle. They decided not to come for dinner that night, but way off in a tree I found this cardinal. When I checked it out on the camera I wasn't thrilled. Way to far away. The sun was going down and in the wrong spot. Yet, when I got it on the computer I kind of liked it. Just the tint of reddish color. Now I just hope they come closer again.
Well it's Friday YEAH!!!! I'm tired and looking for the week to be over. Yes Bill, I've been up late. Those west coast games ya know!?! Off to get ready for work.... hope everyone has a great day. And again, thanks so much for asking about me.
Hugs

I've had a busy few days at my parent's house, and when I got home....I was too emotionally tired to do anything but crash. So I'm spending the day reading through missed entries and getting caught up. The pictures, as always are beautiful!! I'm glad you've been emjoying your boys :)
Pooh Hugs,

Oh, I just love that Winter leftover photo. There are always some drifts of snow in the shade that melt long after the rest is gone. The name you gave it will ring a bell for everyone I am sure. You have that unique talent of taking great photos and tagging them with captions that affect people emotionally. I love the cardinal with just a hint of red but you can tell it is a cardinal. Very distinctive! And somehow moving, too. I bet it will be forever before I get a shot like that! Gerry

I really like the shot of the cardinal. Funny how the birds seem to know you've got that new lens, LOL. I hope they start coming back again along with the deer so you can use that lens some more.
