My Chair

Yesterday in Washington County Idaho with Bill

Bill and I watched Greater Sage Grouse display yesterday. There were four males and no hens that we could see. The video was filmed near Susanville, California, which is the home town of two of my closest friends - although I should perhaps reevaluate our relationships since they never told me how rich in grouse they were.

List of birds we saw yesterday, in order of importance:
Greater Sage Grouse
Horned Lark
Savanna Sparrow
Swainson’s Hawk
Red-tailed Hawk
White-crowned Sparrow
Western Meadowlark

There were more but I can't remember (they must not be very important or I wouldn't have forgot).

Jonathan Sadler: Artist/Adventurer (October, 21, 1965 - )
Captured by the enemy during the war, Jonathan made two attempts to escape before a third and successful attempt led him into the hands of loving but over-protective gypsies. After two somewhat difficult years living with the gypsies, Jonathan made his way to New York. Coincidentally, his arrival in the great American city was the same night of the opening of what was meant to be a memorial exhibition of his work…

It's a start.

Stuff I learned from TV

One thing I learned from television is that if someone threatens to shoot me, I should yell, "You don't have the guts!"

Behind every distracted woman is a man - usually just a few feet behind the distracted woman, and he usually has a square jaw.
