Brush Turkey

Leave a Comment/ 758/ 0

We have a friend living in our bushes I think. Chris saw him (or her–not sure) going in the bushes by our mailbox……it is a Brush Turkey, Bush Turkey or Shrub Turkey depending on what source you look at. I don’t think he will work for Thanksgiving though.
I cannot get the link option to work so if you want to see a picture you will have to type it in–not sure why it isn’t working right but oh well.

Great news today—–the Postie came at 7:30 am!!!! And he brought me a Tupperware Pickle Elevator that I had won on an auction on Oztion!!!! I am so excited!!! Now my pickles will be easy to access!!! It is those little things that make me happy!!! And i love my postie!!! These guys ride these little red Honda scooters and go everywhere—they drive in yards, sidewalks, jump curbs and go wherever they need to go to deliver the mail!!! Ours is a really nice guy though according to his nametag his name is Contract……I need to find out his real name I think because he is becoming my best friend since I am trying to order stuff all the time!!!

Can you tell it was a slow day here??? But the weekend is here and Chris got home early today so we had homemade pizza (yum) and are watching tv and chiling out tonight!!! Life is good!

I loved this book! It had my interest from the very first page and was my "airplane" book on a recent trip. Author Mary Kubica created believable and interesting characters that the reader learned to identify with and care about. Mi...

This is quite a book! I had it recommended to me by several people and while I thought it might be a little dark and depressing it made me have a better understanding of what life in this time period was like. The strength of the huma...

Another great book by John Green. I have become a huge fan of John Green since my reading of A Fault in our Stars and this book was another that did not disappoint me at all. It was a story of a child prodigy, a lot of anagrams, and a b...
