Southwest Florida Eagle Cam & Misc.

I know some of you like watching the eagle cams.  We have one here in Iowa in Decorah but the eagles here have been getting their nest ready so the female can lay her eggs soon.

Two eaglets have recently hatched in Florida so if you watch this web cam you can see them being fed several times during the day.

Bill and Tim have been keeping busy going to various farm related classes since Christmas.  Bill always goes to the dentist, eye doctor and gets a physical this time of year. We've been working on all the paperwork for taxes and are now just waiting on the rest of our 1099's.  Farmers have to file taxes by Mar. 1.    

I've been keeping busy with P.E.O., Tues. Bible Study, and lunch & shopping with friends.  Great Niece, Lacey, just had her 11th birthday party which we were invited to at the Pocahontas bowling alley (6 lanes!).  We all had supper there and bowled a couple of games.  She got lots of nice gifts.  

A couple of weeks ago, I got to have lunch with friends at The Chocolate Season in Algona, a link to their web site is HERE.   It was very good, and I'm looking forward to going back.  They make everything there including quiches, soups, sandwiches, salads and desserts.  And very fancy chocolates.
I had the wild mushroom soup (loved it) and cranberry turkey sandwich.  For dessert I had chocolate truffle cheesecake - so good!   I also had the little bite of brownie you can see in the picture.  They serve a bite with every meal.  If you like chocolate, both of these desserts were amazing!  

We've had snow on the ground for quite a while now.  This weekend is warmer so some may melt.   We're supposed to get 1-2" of snow tomorrow and then around 4" and lots of wind Tues. and Wed.  They were thinking LOTS of snow at first but now we're down to 4".  The blowing snow will be the problem.  I have 3 things to go to on Tues. of course.  All may be canceled.
