Mine keeps hanging up, sometimes longer than others. That was a longer one.

Oh well, at least FR is still working. Things could be worse!

The blinking tree is just right for the season. Helpful friend there. :-)

THE GREAT AMERICAN SONGBOOK

COLE PORTER

BORN TO DANCE

BILL EVANS & JIM HALL: “I’VE GOT YOU UNDER MY SKIN”

At the same time that the 4 Seasons recorded their version, a fine jazz instrumental version showed up. This is a lot of fun.

FR is wonky for me also. UGH.

[radu]

Yeah, it’s been 18 degrees up there all day, at least since I’ve been checking in.

We got down into the teens overnight here but the temps have been creeping up all day. Now the wind’s ripping it ahead of the cold front coming through tomorrow night. I keep hearing stuff blow off the back porch. Going to keep getting stronger as the front moves closer.

It’s been wonky since it went down the other day. But it’s working and that’s the important thing. :-)

[luvie]

I’ll bet it’s lovely!

[Kathy in Alaska]

It sure does!

Lookit what Romeo stood up and showed off this afternoon not a minute after I pulled up the cam page!

Ooooooo.....that’s awesome! I was watching this morning but Juliet only got up once and didn’t give anyone a very good glimpse of the eggs!

How exciting....a fuzzball in about 3 days!

THE GREAT AMERICAN SONGBOOK

COLE PORTER

BORN TO DANCE

JULIO IGLESIAS: “I’VE GOT YOU UNDER MY SKIN”

This 1985 recording is a fine post-Disco dancing arrangement. He adds a little Latin “something” to the mix, and the song doesn’t suffer for it.

Julio Iglesias: “I’ve Got You Under My Skin”

[Kathy in Alaska]

Sending out prayers for Arrowhead1952 as he recovers from his horrible fall.

Hiya radu!

Yup, the dogs and I are hanging and watching M*A*S*H* on TV right now.

It's funny watching them run outside in the snow covered backyard and make yellow and brown snow before they scurry back inside from the cold.

I reward them with a treat and then they curl up and go back to sleep, LOL.

Really getting cold here but no more snow for awhile.

You have a good day?

[luvie]

MERRY CHRISTMAS!!

I checked earlier but couldn’t get a good look when she did get up. Checked back later and Romeo stood up almost right away and gave us a good look.

I would hope it isn’t three days. Once they pip, it’s usually around 24 hours to hatch. Maybe a tad longer.

Looking forward to watching the lil fuzzball and it’s sibling as they grow. :-)
