Well ..... I got scammed and my credit card got compromised and ....etc etc. Got it straightened out with the bank, but scary and very bothersome.

I just ordered a baseball cap with the words in that sign up there.

This happened by way of an ad I clicked on Facebook! ..... Beware !!

There were many Asian people in the museum and many Asian students on the Harvard campus.
In the museum, I'd see familes with young children who were sketching in little notebooks. They were sketching what they saw up on the walls (their impressions of it anyway)! These were 5 - 10 year old kids sketching art with mom or dad looking over their shoulders.
I am very impressed by that studious behavior in young kids.

An excellent afternoon with Angela and Gabe. Discussed many things and laughed a lot. Ate at Lucca's new location - nice place.

Here's D&A discussing the meaning of life, good food and fine art.

Angela and I have a dispute about one of the photos on that wall, and we agreed to actually contact the photographer (Rania Matar) to get the scoop.

My grandchildren insist that this is a hoax and we never actually landed on the moon. It was all filmed at a secret place in the desert southwest USA. Even the TV broadcasts. They did spend $$$$ and years of development, hiring thousands of engineers to develop and build the rockets, but it just went around the Earth and came back.

I don't seriously blame the kids because they see that there is not a chance in hell we could land on the moon today, so they can't accept that a previous generation accomplished that.

I'm pretty sure this is a female Kestrel that perched itself on a birdfeeder out back. Sat there staring at a birdhouse on the back of the garage. I panic-grabbed a camera and shot this through the kitchen screen, just as it flew off. The video and text I stole from a bird web page somewhere.

American Kestrels eat mostly insects and other invertebrates, as well as small rodents and birds. Common foods include grasshoppers, cicadas, beetles, and dragonflies; scorpions and spiders; butterflies and moths; voles, mice, shrews, bats, and small songbirds. American Kestrels also sometimes eat small snakes, lizards, and frogs. And some people have reported seeing American Kestrels take larger prey, including red squirrels and Northern Flickers.

The Audubon Sanctuary Today

Haven't been there in forever it seems. Because of the rain this season, it was jungle-like !
And they have done some nice changes in spots that make it ....um.....nicer !
