Finding America: Waiting for fall foliage
http://findingamerica.blogspot.com/2007/10/waiting-for-fall-foliage.html
Photos and stories by E.B. and Jeanie West. Sunday, October 21, 2007. Waiting for fall foliage. The other day we went geocaching and only found two out of four caches. These Virginia caches are tough! We tromped through the woods and poked all around, but didn't find one cache that turned out to be in a hollowed out stick . . . in the middle of the woods with thousands of other sticks!

Photos and stories by E.B. and Jeanie West. Tuesday, September 25, 2007. We haven't blogged in a while because we came back to Florida, our home base, to see Mike, our son in the Army. He came home on leave from Kosovo. In August and we had a great visit. Been taking bird pictures at Ft. Desoto. Wetlands and Payne's Prairie. The one above is a Limpkin. Here are a few more. . . . This one is a Great Blue Heron with his meal, a Lesser Siren salamander. Yum! Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

Finding America: May 2007
http://findingamerica.blogspot.com/2007_05_01_archive.html
Photos and stories by E.B. and Jeanie West. Thursday, May 03, 2007. Payne's Prairie, a state recreation area just south of Gainesville, Florida, is a bird watcher's paradise with plenty of other critters such as alligators, snakes, wild horses and bison. The prairie encompasses 25 square miles and is easily accessible from US 441 and several hiking trails. The paved Gainesville-Hawthorne Trail also runs through, so you can get there by car, foot, bike or skate! Summer 2007 travel and knitting plans.

Finding America: November 2007
http://findingamerica.blogspot.com/2007_11_01_archive.html
Photos and stories by E.B. and Jeanie West. Saturday, November 10, 2007. Soon we'll be home. This gate leads from a little old cemetery into a pasture that is located on the edge of our home RV park just south of Gainesville, Florida. In his claws was a big old black snake. He was taking it to the nest to share with the baby eagles. Every day is an opportunity to see something exciting in nature. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). View my complete profile. Do One Nice Thing.

Finding America: July 2007
http://findingamerica.blogspot.com/2007_07_01_archive.html
Photos and stories by E.B. and Jeanie West. Friday, July 27, 2007. Can you see me now? These pictures were taken in Theodore Roosevelt National Park in North Dakota. Can you imagine having a baby as big as this bison baby? The momma bison never let their babies get too far from them. The prairie dog babies were getting big, but still needed their mommas and like. D to pester them. This momma turkey had her "hands" full. Saturday, July 14, 2007. Thursday, July 05, 2007. Then the bear walked up the road ri...

Finding America: Ospreys
http://findingamerica.blogspot.com/2008/06/ospreys.html
Photos and stories by E.B. and Jeanie West. Monday, June 16, 2008. Wow We've woefully neglected this blog for the past six months . . . mostly because we haven't been traveling. BUT there are lots and lots of wonderful things to take pictures of right here in Florida. Especially birds. So I will try to catch us up and show you some of Florida's birds. You may know Cross Creek because that is where the author Marjorie Kinnan Rawlings. You can see more ospreys by clicking on the title link above.

Finding America: January 2008
http://findingamerica.blogspot.com/2008_01_01_archive.html
Photos and stories by E.B. and Jeanie West. Monday, January 21, 2008. No, we didn't take the motorhome to Kosovo. But that's where our youngest son, Mike, has been for the last year. He is an MP in the Army K-9 unit deployed on a UN peacekeeping mission out of Italy. You can see pictures he has taken of the Kosovo countryside and Kosovo children here. That is Mike being hoisted up into a Mevac helicopter with his dog, Allan, during a training mission recently. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Do One Nice Thing.
