Thanks. . . . . she's back to normal for sure. Abby, coincidentally, is 12 years old today and, in the words of her surgeon, a "remarkable physical specimen" for her age. Hopefully she's with us many more years. Abby, nosing through the grass of her prairie home, after the storm . . .
Her sister Keeper, also 12, has been slowing noticeably after surving cancer two years ago.
Below, Abby lazing her way through tall grass along the northwestern shore of Chain Lake, a favourite walk in all seasons . . . . sort of a private dog park as I've only seen one other person out for a stroll here. The fisherman type tend to hang out at the dam.
As we were walking along, we saw this unlikely sight, one of a nesting pair of Bald Eagles, disturbed by our presence (a pair of Osprey's had been dive-bombing us earlier) . . . .
. . . . which seconds later turned into this even more unlikely spectacle, travelling west to east over the lake at about 500 feet and roughly 350-400 knots. The challenge for the board is to identify markings and aircraft type . . .
and, for amusement, in the darkest part of Brown Lowery park, a weird photo . . . .
