Good Morning Meg!!!! Good Morning!!!! Oh addictive isn't the word! LOL.. and this morning several of " My cams" are down. Rain is heard loud on the Pelican Harbor cam, so the storm is headed our way in Los Angeles.

Sassy caught everyone's affection this year, but I can assure you that is the watching Eagles is beyond wonderful and exciting!

Look who showed up and said hello to me yesterday at my Sidney Nest Cam..

A wonderful thought, as usual Mayor. We also are watching a sapling tree outside that we planted about that long ago too.

Blessings to you today..

lolol.. you beat me to it! I do enjoy this nest but of course my first love nests are in Sidney and right here off of our coast in Catalina and Santa Cruz. Two Harbors, on Catalina Island , that cam was messed up during the rains we had last month, and they are working it over now. Two Harbors, Pelican Harbor, and Sidney cams all have sound. Norfolk VA doesn't but that cam does have a beautiful setting.

I’d rather watch eagles and hummingbirds!

I vote we adopt this beautiful bird as our website mascot!
(anyway we get a link so we can see the bird?)

How about some data on the bird; name, age, progress on nesting and so on, so we can enjoy this along with you?

Just got this and am passing it on, OUTSTANDING!

Moist Chocolate Cake
3 cups flour
6 Tablespoons cocoa
2 teaspoons baking soda
2 cups white or brown sugar
1 teaspoon salt
10 Tablespoons oil
2 Tablespoons white vinegar
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
2 cups water

Combine wet and then dry ingredients and mix with electric mixer just until well combined.
This cake is so versatile it can be baked either in 2 – 9 inch round pans, 1- 9x13 pan or in muffin tins for cup cakes. . For cup cakes, add a few chocolate chips into each muffin tin before pouring batter into it. Layer or top with your favorite frosting. This cake will soon become a favorite for everyone around!

Really Rich Brownie Cake

2 sticks margarine
6 Tablespoons dark or unsweetened chocolate chips
6 Tablespoons semi-sweet chocolate chips
2 cups granulated sugar
3 teaspoons vanilla extract
4 eggs
2 ½ cups flour
½ tea salt

Melt margarine and chocolate in medium saucepan. Mix for a smooth chocolate mixture. Remove from heat. Add into the saucepan with chocolate mixture in it — sugar and extract, eggs (checked for blood spots), flour and salt – mixing just until well combined. Pour batter into 9 x 13 baking pan lined with parchment paper. Bake in 350 degrees preheated oven for approximately half hour. If wooden toothpick inserted in the middle comes out clean, it’s ready. Very satisfying!

Excellent devotional today. Very true. Thank you.

Excerpt
“... When Paul wrote to the believers at Colosse, he said, “Set your mind on things above, not on things on the earth” (Col. 3:2). His point is that only as we allow our values to be motivated and shaped by the eternal (not the temporal) will we be effective ambassadors of Christ in the world. It is in the understanding that we are pilgrims in this world, not tourists, that we can keep a clear perspective and an undistracted heart—and can more effectively serve the Savior.”
