Nashville Predator



I was taking my normal walk through the park and I noticed this huge, beautiful red-tailed hawk sitting on a branch right above the path. It's unusual to see one so low, I could have jumped up and touched it. At first I couldn't figure out why, but then I noticed it had snagged itself a mouse of some kind and was munching on it. As is so often the case the picture doesn't capture the size and details of the hawk, how amazing it was to see up so close. I think the sun behind it messed with camera as well.

Still The One

















I married the love of my life 19 years ago today, hard to believe it's been that long. I'm a very lucky man! Our gift to each other was the trip to Europe so 20 is really going to have it's work cut out for it.

So, like Shania sang just for us back then:

You're still the one I run to
The on that I belong to
You're still the one I want for life
(You're still the one)
You're still the one I love
The only one I dream of
You're still the one I kiss good night

Now how about a few memories:

Fowl Play

















I somehow managed to not get a picture of Thanksgiving, probably distracted by one of Mari's best turkeys ever and all the good company. With Lonnie and Ashley in town and Mom and Dad with us we came down to the Grand Ole Opry House to see Cirque Dreams Holidaze, a nouveau-circus act full of bright costumes, singing and feats of physical ability. It was really good, definitely worth the time to see.

The best looking cutting board around, a Dad creation.

Fireball













Pyre didn't look like my kind of game but it was the third outing of indy studio Supergiant Games, who made Bastion and Transistor, both of which I really enjoyed. I took a chance and it was a good one, I liked the sports style game play and the story was interesting. The soundtrack was excellent as always.
