I’m still waiting for these to bloom.  It’s been so cold, I think they are afraid to open.

Our first thunderstorm of the season brought hail.

The Honorable James L. Oberstar came in under the Aerial Lift Bridge at 9:30 this morning.  Yes, that really is ice in the harbor on May 8.  I photographed the boat back in 2011 the day before it was christened with Oberstar’s name.  You can see photos here.

The Wild Life

Even though we live in the city, we see our share of wildlife.  Last weekend an eagle was circling over our house.

Ducks and geese were getting ready to start nesting at a nearby pond.

And this morning two deer were resting in our neighbor’s backyard.

We definitely live on the wild side.  😉
