Daily Walks
22 years ago
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.
Happy New Year!

I hope that everyone had a great New Year~ JJ and I are starting the new year off with a trip to Kentucky to visit my grandparents. We will be in New Concord KY for little over a month. I have a lot of work to do helping my grandfather with some maintenance around his house and I hope to be able to get some great landscape shots of Kentucky Lake and some of the older tobacco barns. It also sounds like we will visit a couple of the distillers while we are in KY. I am looking forward to visiting Jim Beam.
We played around with some sparkles tonight but pretty much had a quiet New Year’s Eve. We spent most of the night packing for our trip! We will leave as soon as we get up in the morning!
Happy 2010
Week with Grammy and Poppa

I was told that I do not write enough and that I only seem to be posting pictures. This was told to me by someone who claims to check this sight two times a day…ahahahahah…..well if you really check it twice a day then you will be sending me a message and letting me know you got this message……hahaha
Jenny and I drove to New Concord, KY to stay with my grandparents for awhile. She was introduced to all of the family including Cleo the dog and the two cats…
We had a great time. Not only did we eat great home cooked food, but we saw a bunch of wildlife as well( video of the deer coming soon!)
I have many pictures to post, but Gram and Poppa were great. We had a great time visiting and meetting their friends and just really relaxing. We are already planning a return trip in a few weeks after Thanksgiving. On the next trip, Jenny will be learning Grammy’s reciepe for Pepper Steak(Which is pictured above)
