It was a hoot

I was standing on the patio last night, looking at the basketball-sized full moon over the water when an owl flew over my head. It was creepy in a good way.

Wildlife Encounter

I love living by water, trees, and woods but someone needs to remove the damn wildlife and take it to a zoo. I just heard an encounter I could describe with a series of protracted vowels ("aaaaaawk!") but I'll let it suffice to say it sounded like a giant frog vs. a duck. Or a coyote strangling something, probably a poodle named Fifi- if anyone names poodles that anymore.

Life Events

I now live in Blaine, WA. I can see White Rock, British Columbia from my bedroom window, much better than Sarah Palin can see Russia from hers.

My father died May 30th. That's part of why I'm in Blaine- to be with my mom.
