Well, we had a minor cockatiel meltdown yesterday. After a long night’s sleep, I woke Thursday morning to get started on a massive to do list. Non Birding Bill mentioned in passing that our cockatiel was out of muffin. I thought he meant that Kabuki was eating the last piece, oh no, Kabuki had completely [ Read More ]

I just learned that Dave Stemple has died. Wish Non Birding Bill and I live a few blocks from his son Adam, and I’ll never forget the first time we met at Mr. Neil’s and Adam came up to me and told me that since I was into birds that I should meet his father [ Read More ]

Will I leave Nebraska today or will I have to stay another day? “Mom, I’m so booooooooooored!” I-80 is still closed. Rumor has it that might open within the next four hours. Many of us at the hotel are playing a waiting game to see if we get to check out today or have to [ Read More ]

In the previous post I showed how I was spending my time, but some are curious about Non Birding Bill. Here is what he’s been dealing with. It’s only about two minutes long, but highly worth it.

I’m excited to learn that my blog is on the Blogs of Note list on the blogger start page–I’m so excited, I feel like I’m sitting at the big kid table. It’s certainly a silver lining to my snowed in, stranded day in Nebraska. The local weather man is saying that we are getting an [ Read More ]

I don’t think I’ll be driving from Kearney, NE to Minneapolis today. Word at the hotel front desk is that the roads will be officially closed within the next two hours. The radio station I’m listening to is reading the list of all that is closed (schools, malls, clinics, weightwatchers, etc). He’s been going nonstop [ Read More ]

Hmmmmmm, I’m not sure I will be leaving tomorrow morning with the predicted record snowfall that’s supposed to start in earnest around 9pm tonight. Traffic was more than a little slow at the booth today. I think many people left early to try and get home before the big storm hits tonight. This morning there [ Read More ]
