My black cat would jump up on the desk (he never found it interesting enough to visit before) reach behind the CPU box and swat at something.<BR/>When he jumped down, I checked the desk. Behind the CPU desk I found a bird! It was a flicker. Since I showed interest, both cats and the dog all decided to assist me. So, all of the animals went into a bedroom behind a closed door (not willingly).<BR/>I moved the computer out and there it was. My dilemna now was to get it out of the house. He did not move out of the corner he was in.<BR/>I opened the front door and locked the screen door open. I reached toward the bird and he moved. Up into the air and across the ceiling. Not toward the door, of course.<BR/>It took awhile, but using a magazine I was able to guide his flight toward the door. Eventually it worked and he flew to his freedom outside.<BR/>I watched him go. I opened the bedroom door and watched ALL of the animals head for the computer desk...<BR/>I am still amazed that I found him inside and have no idea how he got in!CewTwohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01559024822260264420noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5437804737085732748.post-68499744472992939022008-05-23T14:34:00.000-05:002008-05-23T14:34:00.000-05:00Sure sounds like everyone's got a little more 'spr...Sure sounds like everyone's got a little more 'spring' in their step now.Annehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04377440606704745517noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5437804737085732748.post-91565452196613027362008-05-23T10:58:00.000-05:002008-05-23T10:58:00.000-05:00Well now.

Sunshine and good weather when I left and overcast and windy when I returned. <BR/><BR/>I had heard about the weather in Colorado's Larimer and Weld counties. There was at least one life lost. It is always a tragedy when that happens.<BR/><BR/>I got a kickj out of my most recent blog as I heard from the Eastland Disaster Organization. They want to make sure that I got the location of the plaque correct. I did modify my blog post with the correct location and a link to the organization's website.<BR/><BR/>Sometimes out contact with our humble blogs have far reaching connections!CewTwohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01559024822260264420noreply@blogger.com
