One Week
Originally uploaded by gshower7

Little birdies are one week old today! The first two cracked their way out of their little blue eggs last Thursday, and the change is just amazing... Little speckled feathers, big wide beaks, and little black beady eyes. Their eyes are still more often closed than open, but every now and then they decide to take a look at this big world they're in now... In another week, they'll all be grown and mom will have kicked them out of the nest. Pretty amazing.

In other news, I'm getting the proper jaw-drop reaction from folks on a nearly-finished scroll... danged proud of this one, I am. Eeee scroll! After GNEW, there will be photos. Don't want to risk the wrong people finding out ahead of time... ;) I also have much much fabric to wash and chop into bits and make the bits into garb before Pennsic. This will be fun... aieeees!

Mom and brother are coming up tomorrow afternoon, and then at least mom and I are headed to the Coastal Maine Botanical Gardens on Saturday with E and her mom. Should be fun, even if it does rain on us a little bit (which it will... it's been raining all week, why should it stop now?).

Botanical Gardens? Saturday? hmm... not racing, not camping, not doing much of anything else either... have batteries for the camera... Have room for another body? I'll have to check with T to see if she had plans... but I don't THINK it's something she would want to go to also, of course I could be wrong. hmm....

Depends if it's girls-only... ;) I know you wouldn't mind a bit if it were. I'll check with E if you check with T!

She says 'no problem at all' :)

Replying here, just in case you didn't get my email... check your email! :) We are planning on leaving here around 10:15ish tomorrow AM. We can leave a bit earlier and pick you (both?) up, or you can meet us here, and then join us for steak and swordfish for dinner!
