Friday Fotos...


We had yet another cookout at work this week.  We have a few new employees working out of our Education Center.  Callie is the new Youth Camp Director and she has hired three part-time people to work with her this summer.  She supplied the food this time and invited us, from the Field Office, and staff from the Welcome Center.  It was fun to meet the three new "kids" who will be working with the kids who will be attending the (day) camps.  There are over 80 kids registered for the first week which starts on Monday.  Anyway... after we ate and people were heading back to the office, I walked down to Derby Lake to take pictures from a different dock.



Pappa Osprey caught a fish and was waiting for it to die.  
He took it to the nest for the babies. We watched him
fly up there with the fish in his claws.





Looking toward the picnic pavilion and restrooms.


I didn't ask permission so hope it is okay for me to share this and brag about the terrific work my BFF Elaine did!  From a picture of her son's dog, she created the wall-hanging rug.  I am so impressed by her creativity and I'm sure her son will love this gift!  Well done!!


The Mas Verde dinner group went to Miller's Ale House last night.  I hadn't been for two weeks because of my cold.  It was good to catch up with Larry & Sharon and Tim & Judy.  Only five of us right now. Missing our snowbird friends.


Peace & Hugs!

I can only imagine...

  5. This is good news that you are recovered from that cold and can enjoy work and friends again. It's interesting Daddy Osprey was waiting until the fish died before taking it up to the nest with the children. I guess he was smart enough to not want a live fish to flop around the nest and possible fall to the ground.

    Elaine's wall hanging rug of her son's dog is amazing!! What talent she has!

    Sorry I have been MIA. Rick has been in the hospital for heart issues. I have had both cataracts taken care of. Hopefully I am back now. lol

So happy for you to be working in such a lovely place with fun people. What a blessing. Wow! That wall hanging/rug that Elaine did is amazing!! She is very talented, and yes, I am sure her son will love it! Glad you were able to go out to supper with your friends again. I am sure they missed you as well! So happy for you to be feeling better again and able to do the things you enjoy!! Take care and have a wonderful weekend.
