This date is the 55th Anniversary of Carol Ellen Hodgdon's passing. While that is a lifetime, it seems like it was just yesterday. I miss her more everyday.


Later,

Rex

But for some news about critters, I saw Baby Samantha strutting across the deck like she owned it. She is only about 2 inches long. And I saw the resident hawk last week. I think it is a red tail hawk but I did not see it soon enough to be sure. A couple of years ago a Red Tail Hawk ate its lunch sitting on top of the purple martin house.
