"You can only knit so many chickens and bunnies, and read so many books," Art said as he packed me in the car. "We are going to the lake for a walk."
Well okay, if I was honest I was a little bored , and besides I could use some exercise.
I was hoping to see some signs of Spring...
that didn't happen though the lake wasn't frozen any more.
We walked down around the lake front, and found some interesting things.
We saw signs of beavers, and beaver dams.
For years Joe and Art have hunted for the elusive "snow goose"
We have one hanging on our wall, and so does Joe, but
in all these years I have never seen one in the wild, that is
until yesterday.
It sounded and felt like a freight train going by, and the sky was filled
with flocks of white birds.
They were moving in one accord, and the air was filled with a chorus of
honking in different chords.
It was awesome...
It was worth getting off the couch.
