Morning Beauty

Right before I left this morning for work, I walked out back to water the flowers before another 100+ degree day.  (They say this will be day 12 of the last 13 for 100+)  When I got out back, the sky looked so awesome and it looked like parts of it were on fire.  So I went in and grabbed my crappy camera and snapped some shots of it.

After I left for work I was driving north and saw some cool rain clouds so I snapped a few pictures of those clouds too.  Here is one of them:

Evening Visitor

This was just crazy. I wish I knew more about video but for now pictures will do. I was sitting dropping some Entrecards and out of the corner of my eye I see this big flying shadow that landed on our back fence. So I take an easy approach off of the couch and slide to the floor cause I don’t want to scare it off. Then I realize, wow this is some type of hawk. At first I thought it just landed to view the grass area behind us until my wife pointed out that it had something in it’s talons.

After we started watching this bird eat dinner (on our fence) we started to discuss what it could be eating. First we thought it was a mouse or rat then we moved to maybe a mole. Then it hit us.. No long tail, so it was a baby bunny.

This was just crazy watching this happen in our yard, and watching the hawk consume this animal. Then the bad part, the hawk didn’t eat the whole thing so we had to go clean up some of it’s insides off the fence and some fur that was spread everywhere. But wow, it was cool to watch.. Here are a couple of pictures.

Memoir Time

I was tagged by Peak9 and to fulfill the tagging request here is what I need to do.
I need to create a memoir of me in 6 words.

This wasn’t easy, but the more I thought about everything it was actually pretty simple.

My Memoir:  Lost man who is now saved!

I think that one fits perfectly.

Normally I would tag a few blogs at this point, but truthfully I don’t think any would respond.  :) lol

I would love to hear yours if you would like to participate..  you can comment here or even post it on your own blog!!!

 

Laminin - Louie Giglio

I heard Louie Speak at Passion Dallas a couple months ago when I volunteered my weekend to help out with this event. It was an amazing time even though I didn’t hear every talk but what I did hear was amazing. This is one of those small parts of one of his speeches that you should listen to.
