Looking Up Dead People

It's a hot and rainy day Sunday afternoon.

We might take the boat out for an early evening cruise, but until then I decided to surf around on the internet for our upcoming trip to Long Island, and in particular, the return drive through Paradise, PA where I will be, as the title states, looking up dead people. Just their names and abodes, not them personally, may they rest in peace.

Maybe this tombstone will explain. Notice my name? Notice the date?

So I'll visit this cemetary and maybe get a pic of my mug on top of the tombstone. Unless it's walled off and protected from nuts like me.

Then I might book a room at Creekside Inn Bed and Breakfast, built in 1781 on land that was part of the original Ferree purchase grant.
This must be what it feels like for some people who visit Hollywood, or Graceland! I'm getting all goose-bumply! Must pack binoculars and camera!

Oh, by the way, Mom, this website has everything you ever need about Ferree. Our Ferree Family

And this page made me laugh!
Thanks for checking in on me!

Outdoor Visitors

Tom was burning some brush at the back of our lot early this evening. I walked back there to talk to him, and lo and behold---a big wild turkey came walking out of the woods on the lot across from us! I thought maybe he smelled the smoke and decided to check it out. And he didn't seem in too much of a hurry, but he picked up the pace when he saw us. A minute later, we saw some more movement where the turkey was, and a coyote peered over at us. He turned around after eyeballing us. I think maybe he was following that meaty looking turkey. I never know what I'll see out here!   And this little thing was inside the screened-in porch today. The green anole made it out alive yesterday, so I guess word is out---Fud isn't a threat! Those are NOT my fingers in the picture.

Jennifer Lawrence interview on David Letterman HD - November 20, 2013 I've never been a fan of a real-life movie star (Bambi isn't real). But after watching this interview last night I just might! This girl's hilarious!

New Pets

My garden failed in everything except a pot of parsley. Last week I noticed tiny green beads stuck to the parsley leaves, and a few days later some small black caterpillars, and now.... PETS! Yep. Pet caterpillars. Not Monarchs, though. They kind of look like the Monarch butterfly caterpillar, but these are Black Swallowtail butterfly caterpillars. Love the parsley. They totally destroyed my plant so I bought them some from the grocery store. I put the stems in a cup of water and it's holding up well enough---at the rate they're going they might eat it all before it wilts anyway! I wish I'd taken their pictures on Wednesday when they were less than 1" long. Now they're a good 2" long. Let me introduce you:   This one is named Parsley. Start up the music for Scarborough Fair. Sage. Rose, Mary, and And (yes, one of them is named And. Scroll down and see if you guessed why I named it And). Thymes Seven. Yes, this last one is named S...
