We were having lunch today on the cabin's screened in porch and eagle eye Gerry spotted something in the meadow across from us. There was a flock of wild turkeys feeding and moving through the meadow. We counted between 8-10 birds and they didn't know we were there or weren't concerned about us and fed in the area for 45 minutes. They appeared to be young birds and there wasn't a dominant bird in the flock. I managed to get a couple shots from a long range and the quality is lacking somewhat.
The nice lunch we were having came from the Fickle Pickle sub shop up here on South Mountain. Judy is the owner/operator/chief bottle washer at the shop and makes a great sub. We like all the subs and it's a hard decision what to get when we go up there. Stop by and tell her hello from us if you are ever in the area. You can't miss the place, it is one of two businesses open on main street.
Cousin Sharon & Al have moved out of their house and are just waiting to leave Aurora in their 5th wheel. They had another a/c installed and are very thankful they did so. I was talking to him around 6:45pm his time and it was still 93 degrees there. By contrast, it is in the mid 70s up here on the mountain. Stay cool guys.
Now it is time to watch a movie and relax with a nice glass of wine. See Ya!
Sept 11 is sneaking up on you. I talked to Kim today (paying rent) and she said the time was flying. No news though. We'll make it through one more wedding and then head out that way too.
ReplyDeleteWe also have had a lot of rain this week. The DNC had to cancel a few things along the way but mostly entertainment things. They have a lot of the roads closed around my office so I have been working from home (plus laptop still broke so I have to use my home desktop). Heading to Myrtle Beach this afternoon for a Thursday morning meeting and right back. Sounds to me like you guys are a little more excited or ready to get out of there this year! Have fun.
