Turkeys

I've seen this flock of eight turkeys in the neighborhoot several times. They've been doing a great job of cleaning up the bugs and they like to check out the neighbor's water fountain. Tonight, when I got home from work they were in the neighbor's yard. A few minutes later they had crossed the street and were busy cleaning up the seed on the ground under the bird feeder. Kit wondered what they were doing in his yard.

 Unfortunately, they spook easily and so my only pictures are of them walking away.

Football Saturdays

Look who's playing football!

So stinkin' cute!

Southern Oregon Weekend

Labor Day weekend in Southern Oregon. We spent the weekend at Valley of the Rogue State Park so we could just relax. Of course, we found ways to entertain ourselves as well.

On Saturday, we spent the day in Jacksonville. It's such a great little town. The weather was beautiful, so we spent a few hours wandering through the shops. We even ran into some friends. And we had a wonderful lunch on the patio of the Jacksonville Inn.

Sunday, we headed into Grants Pass. We had a specific goal. Once upon a time, I lived in Brookings, Oregon and frequently enjoyed eating at Wild River Pizza. There are actually four locations, so we opted for lunch at the Grants Pass location. The pizza was excellent. And so was the beer. They were out of my usual favorite, the Kolsch, so I went with the Honey Wheat Ale. It was a good choice.
