It's Spring Again.....
What perfect timing for my Austin project to end. The weather here in Chicago is finally pleasant. The Cubbies are in first place. And I can smoke cigars more often.
I spent some time in the yard this morning, just relaxing, enjoying the nice breeze, and maybe having an early morning wheat ale from the kegerator.
Some of you may have heard of the cougar sightings in Chicago. No, not Diane Lane or Michaelle Ffeiffer - an actual cougar. This happened not too far from where I live, just down the street from the grocery store we frequent. For living in the city we do get some strange beasts. Just last year a coyote wandered into a downtown Starbucks.
While I was on the back porch I saw two cardinals playing in the crabapple tree. I nicknamed them Pooh-holes and Andujar.
Then I shot them.
Not with a gun, you sicko. With my camera. The pictures didn't turn out well. So I moved on to other subjects in the yard.
Including this gem.
I got mad skillz.
