Wow! Green Acres is the place to be. I imagine you have some sort of bobcats prowling at night. Set up a trip wire and flash camera to catch them in the dark.

By the way, there something odd about this shot. Where's the snow?

How nice to have company in the morning. You are quick to take pictures and post. It is amazing that you don't have snow. Kevin was right.

Hey, it was only 26 this morning and it's currently 37 (above freezing)! I've been taking pictures out the back door (most) every morning thinking I'll post them as the "March toward Spring". I may have started a little early 'cause it's still going to be some time before we get some color.

It's funny that you mention the Bobcat. Sally (I don't know if you remember her) saw a bobcat in here backyard. She is now worried about her cat!

Cheering for the Home Team

Greg and I went in to Dallas on a rainy Tuesday evening to see the Dallas Mavericks take on Kobe and the Lakers. Our Mavs forgot to participate in the first half and were down as much as 24 points. The coach (The Little General) must have pulled in some big markers in the locker room at half time because it was a different team that took the floor after the break. You can see that we were 3 points down at 21 seconds to go and we pulled it back to one point at 12 seconds. The game went to LA in the end but we certainly got our money's worth. We'll soon see how this season pans out, but tonight we take on the lead leading Boston Celtics. They don't stand a chance.

  Elta Lee Frick Mechling 1873 - 1941 The Kennison kids did not get to meet and know our great-grandmother Elta, as she passed in 1941 at the age of 68 as the result of an apparent heart attack.  We surely know of Elta's love and care for family from the character of her only daughter Josephine and the gentle demeanor of her husband Arthur.  This couple helped raise our dad and his siblings when John Kennison abandoned his young family.  This photo of Elta was on display for many years in the foyer area of Ginny's home.   Elta is laid to rest alongside of her husband Arthur Shupe Mechling in the Sylvan Heights Cemetery in Uniontown .  I traced her ancestry on Find A Grave and find that her roots are similar to Arthur's, coming from humble backgrounds in Europe, ultimately arriving in Philadelphia in 1767.  Grandmother Jo proudly served in the Daughters Of The American Revolution due to this heritage.  Here is the linage on her dad's side...
