Socks and Eagles

As I've mentioned before, I've had lots of time to knit so far this summer....here's my newest creation: socks for Olivia!














They look funny laying in the chair, but I promise that they're the same size and shape. No worries, Olivia, you're not going to
need any strange foot surgery to get into them. :D


This morning, John, Grace and I went to see an eagle be released back into the wild. The eagle, Liberty, had been injured in a territorial dispute, but recovered nicely from her surgeries and was ready to go back into the world. I did not get any good pict
ures of the release....she took off in a hurry! My camera couldn't keep up. :) I did get a decent picture of a golden eagle that was also at the event (for moral support???).



As we were returning to the car, John spotted this treasure/misfortune:

A tiny bird's egg with a tiny crack in one side. We looked for a nest that the egg belonged to, but did not see one. Too late for this one anyway, but it sure is a pretty little egg.

No news on my mom....things seem to be going about the same. I'll be back at her house on Monday. I've decided to start splitting my time between home and her house as long as things are maintaining.
