I have been trying to get some cardio everyday to keep my goals for Project 35(basically to lose 35lbs this year).  I usually start walking around 1 or 2 and walk/hike for an hour or two.  Every time I go out I see something unexpected. On Wednesday’s walk, I ran across a few turkeys, a bunch of woodpeckers, some whitetail deer, and a pair of bald eagles. The deer ran away too quickly for me to get a shot of them.

This turkey crossed right in front of me.

I have been chasing this Red Headed Woodpecker all around the lake trying to get a shot.

These guys were sitting above my car when I got back from my walk

When I got back, we realized that I had turned off the faucets in our bathroom last night.  The pipes froze up and so my grandfather and I hooked up a shop vac on reverse to blow hot air into the paneling that holds the pipes.  It was totally my fault but he took it all in stride.  Luckily, the pipes did not burst. It took us about an hour to unfreeze the pipes.

We got some snow on Thursday and today and I will post some more photos later. My grandmother is calling me into the kitchen for something that she has cooked. I swear I am going to gain 20lbs this month. Project 35 may turn into project 75.
