We’re back

We finally arrived last night from our latest trip to Norway. What a great trip. We got to spend most of the time with the family, and see now places. We stayed near the Atlantic Ocean, and for the first time I was really able to see how the tide comes in and out. One [...]

Our Travels this summer

We’ve finally gotten most of the little things taken care of for our trip this summer. We’ll be going to Norway again to see the grandkids. The nice part of this trip is that the kids will be going with us. It’s going to be a lot of fun. We are going to leave their [...]

Free Entrance?

I just read an article in the news that says the Dept. of Interior is going to have free access to the national parks on three weekends this summer. My question is why are we paying for this in the first place? Oh, it’s to clean up the mess that people leave. I find this [...]

Summer plans!

It’s over and it’s starting.. ;-)

Today was my last official day at work. Ahh, retirement. The best part is that we leave for Norway tomorrow. We’re really excited about going this year. The kids have a new house and we are going to Geiranger Fjord for 3 days. Once I get back I hope to have enough good pictures of [...]

Happening!

Earlier I wrote about watching a Norwegian Sea Eagle nest in Norway, and how interesting it was. This has really been interesting and we just got word that there will be a banding of the chicks on Monday 2 June after about 1700. It will be broadcast over the internet as they have a camera [...]

Amazing!!

In my journey to find things to see and do when we go up to Norway, I found a site that is quite amazing! It’s a webcam setup to watch a sea eagle nest in Norway. They don’t tell the location of the nest of course, which I understand. The best part of it right [...]
