It's a half sunny, half cloudy day today. Typical March I guess, really. I'm hoping the sunny half is out when we take the dogs walking.
Just now, as I was sitting down to write, two huge turkey buzzards flew past my window. I've missed them. They migrate to southern Cal and Mexico for the winter--lucky birds. We saw one yesterday when we were out in the Valley on the way to the park, but having two more fly over today means they're back. I'm glad. Remember this photo I took last Fall..?? How cool these birds are...

Tonight is a celestial event. An extreme supermoon, which will make the moon appear larger and brighter than normal; it's also at the fullest part of its rotation. The moon hasn't been this close to the Earth for eighteen years. The real name for this phenomena is called a lunar perigee, though no matter what the astronomers call it, hopefully the clouds will part at some point this evening so I can see it for myself.

This video just goes to show: Dads--and engineer dads especially--should not be allowed to babysit, particularly when there are loose teeth, rockets and small boys involved.
Nothing really planned for the weekend. I went to the local used bookstore the other day, turned in some books, got great credit, so when I found several books to buy, I only had to pay a few bucks. My kind of shopping. I have a nice pile of books to read now, and that seems like a good way to spend the weekend afternoons.(How many Meerkats in this picture..?? This is how it looks at night from my perspective, with the two dogs in the bed. I'm sure you can guess which one I am).

I will sign off now with this amazing photo. I don't do many lizardy-type photos--other than the Alligator Lizards found in the front yard last month, and eewww, don't want to think about that right now--but this is a most beautiful Chameleon. Nature is truly mind-boggling...
