Doesn't get much better than natural almonds.....except roasted almonds without salt.

I love crackers. So I made some. Not bad for my first try. I'll make them thinner next time.

Jailbird fan makes his return! Does this follow the law of sequels? Is the sequel worse than the original?

ZAHS advanced band performs at Grandberry Mall

Zama American High School’s advanced band played for the first time in a local foreign national concert venue May 22 at Grandberry Mall.

Kevin Hanson, Zama American School band teacher, said he has been here nine years and they have been unable to find a venue off-base.

“For this performance opportunity, we had to send a video of the band to be asked/accepted to play,” said Hanson.

The symphonic band of 41 students played a variety of music to include some Disney movie themed music, Batman’s theme song and the Mission Impossible movie theme song.

Hanson said the mall manager was watching the crowd and everyone seemed to enjoy it.

“We were invited to come back anytime,” said Hanson.

Inspired by some of my Flickr friends, I've been working on compiling a list of all the birds I have photographed. I started a new Flickr album to help keep me on task. I still have several more new to me birds to share before I am complete. And of course, I hope to add plenty more in the future.

This, I believe, is a black vulture. Usually we see turkey vultures around here. This is the first and only time so far I have seen a black vulture. I was leaving one of my favorite local birding spots and traveling a country road when I came upon this guy/gal feasting on some road kill. I stopped the car in hopes of getting a shot, but it flew off up into the trees. Fortunately, I didn't completely spook it and managed to get some shots out the car window. I was also fortunate to have my camera and zoom lens sitting right beside me since I had just finished searching for birds at the pond.

It appears that this area is in the northernmost range of the black vulture, according to All About Birds from the Cornell Lab of Ornithology ... link follows ...

I used to love putt-putt golf, but never really had a desire to play "real" golf. I thought "real" golf was only on a regulation 18-hole course with impatient people behind you. I learned about this par 3 course near me and gave it a try. Played 9 holes and it only took an hour or so. Enjoyed it.

the two bottom pieces i threw myself, the larger pot on the top our teacher threw and gave to us to practice trimming the bottom of the bowl. i went too deep and turned it into a plant pot. glazed all three myself as well :) my first pottery pieces. proud of myself.

Here's the living room looking out to the front yard. Clearly this is where we are putting all our empty boxes, haha. They will get cleared out soon enough. Three huge windows here + built in bookcases. Love it!

This is one of my first times learning how to use industry cameras!
