My Wife is a Regular Marlin Perkins...

Sensing that I have been somewhat preoccupied and unable to photograph every little interesting tidbit along my drive home, my wife has attempted to fill the gap. The other day, she would have made Ken Burns proud as she documented the historical end of a squirrel that zigged when he should have zagged.
As she was driving up Timberwilde, she alertly caught the dragging from traffic the decedent squirrel and quickly whipped out her camera to capture the action as it unfolded. Yes, even my wife carries her camera everywhere! Naturally, I have counseled her that in situations like this, video mode is much preferable.

The funny part is, regular reader Maureen sent a note to my wife on her Facebook account and asked if she was the crazy lady on the side of the road filming the circle of life in action. Good times.

  3. It took me a second to realize she wasn't pointing a radar gun at me ( or some type of weapon)....then I noticed the vulture, recognized Eva, and figured out it was blog material. All in about 2.4 seconds...whew! Y'all are great!

  5. There's nothing like a day enhanced by Silver Creek 78250!! Reminds me of the day I came home from work and my wife (who hates snakes....and hadn't been much of a picture taker) produced a video of a snake eating another snake. She was durn proud of her videographer skills, despite the risks.
