At the risk of offending..... I still had to share this one!

A Good Catholic Joke

The Pope and Obama are on the same stage in Yankee Stadium in front of a huge crowd.

The Pope leans towards Mr. Obama and said, "Do you know that with one little wave of my hand I can make every person in this crowd go wild with joy? This joy will not be a momentary display, but will go deep into their hearts and they'll forever speak of this day and rejoice!"

Obama replied, "I seriously doubt that ~ with one little wave of your hand? Show me!"

So the Pope backhanded him and knocked him off the stage!

AND THE CROWD ROARED & CHEERED WILDLY!

Kind of brings a tear to your eyes, doesn't it?

Happiness is ......

Name That Bird!

This little woman showed up at the base with four cute babies in tow.... we are still trying to identify her! We've thought she might be plover, we thought she might be tern... but we have yet to find an exact match for her! Any bird lovers out there that might want to take a guess? Nest is in an open field (air field) and they play on the pavement, darting and dashing about through the apparatus doors at the fire station. The mother will flail about if you get near her babies, trying to draw your attention to her and away from them.

Sunny Skies




We've had some great weather these past few days! I'm back to work, and because it's summertime, we're working double shifts and days off are in short supply this week! I've pretty much recovered from the health issues, just trying to find a moment to get back to the gym. (My newest passion!) I'm grateful for all of your comments, good wishes, etc. It's so nice to see you are all still hanging out in the blogoshpere! I'm hoping to have some time off by the end of this week and the plan is to do some fishing, some more fishing and maybe I'll even do some catching!

Here's a photo I snapped as I left on of my favorite places to eat (Up The Creek Again)... he was just hanging out and let me take several shots of him... this one is the best of the bunch...
















Have a happy, safe Fourth of July and if you get a chance, thank a soldier, vet, volunteer... they're the reason we CAN celebrate our freedom!

Under the Weather




I've been just a bit under the weather folks, nothing too serious, but it's prevented me from my usual adventures! I'm on the mend and hoping to get out there today to find something interesting to bring back to share with you....

Hope you all are well and happy!
