funky chicken

I had an hour before bed last night; not a time where I'm up for much physically or intellectually so I played at the computer illustrating. The result was this chicken. It's part photograph, part Larry painting, and part digital. 

On an unrelated side note, I was a scrawny child so when I was little my family nicknamed me chicken. 

I HATED that!

way to go Max!!!

...the Blackhawks' Max Wardell returned the favor with a five-inning no-hitter in a 5-0 win over Holly in the nightcap... A junior, he moved from a spot in the back end of the bullpen last year to Ortonville-Brandon's No. 2 starter. "He had everything going tonight," Dohm said. "He's been doing a great job."

happy birthday to me...

When you hear Zoe screaming "somebody needs to get down here now!" it's never a good thing. This is what she pulled off of the duck today. It's a goshawk and no, I really didn't need one, thanks anyways. Unfortunately he couldn't fly so we called the Game and Fish. The wildlife biologist took him back to town and is going to give him the night to perk up before deciding how to handle him. I would have cared for him myself but it's illegal to possess raptors... hopefully we made the right decision. There are still 7 more hours until my birthday is over, lets hope she doesn't give me anything else! :)

p.s. Elly's fine.
