Wonderful Weekend

This picture is from the Wrenaissance Era in Virginia, and is the first digiscoped picture I took, ever. Not bad, eh?

I spent this past weekend with a dear friend, visiting from my former life down south. It was wonderful to share the vista, the comings and goings of the local birds and wildlife, and good weather with someone who appreciates them all as much as I do. Reconnecting was wonderful. We spent a lot of time "vegging" - reading, playing with scope and binoculars, chatting about nothing and everything. I used some veg time to update my website and set up a flickr account, in between catching up on life, solving the problems of the world, and deciding the important issue of what to do for dinner.
