Alpine Ibex

This is just too cool. Take a look.

These are the Alpine Ibex on a dam in Italy - the Diga del Cingino.

There are some cool videos too... I don't know how to add the link here - so here is the url.

So cool.

Personality

When Adwen was still in womb, I secretly, or maybe not so secretly, thought I had her figured out. I thought she was going to be a mover and a shaker, but quiet. well... Active? YES! We call her "buckin' bronco" if that gives you an idea. But quiet? NO! "Every one up with a HOLLER" is her motto. These picts give a pretty good look into who she really is... at least so far. She is also a lover - a buckin', hollerin', lover. Oh my. Couldn't get any better.

Guess what!

Well, you might think you ought to be guessing about something that would be really big news... if you know me - well, it is - maybe not BIG news, but I feel good about it none the less. I ran a whole 5K today. Yep. I even felt great at the end (excluding the blaring Texas sun in my face). So I do wish I could run faster, but maybe if I actually keep running I will. Who knows. I'll let you know if I find out!

Sorry no picts. Just imagine it - imagine the glory!

Keeping a promise...

I told a friend a few days back that I would post a few pictures of my Addie Rose so she could get a good look see. Well, it may be a few days later than I had hoped for, but just a few, and for me, well, that's not too bad. I'm also including a few others that I like of Eva and cousins.
