Time flies!

I have not blogged in two weeks. No particular reason except that I have been too busy. Ever since I wrote my last notes about Canadian geese, I realized there was a BIG ERROR in the blog. This came to me about an hour after I wrote it. No one noticed or no one reads this, I guess.

As I looked north, I said the migrating geese were flying towards me. Wait a minute. Shouldn't they have been flying NORTH? I got a little more anal about my compass directions, and realized they were not flying north - that much is correct. They were flying southeast.

That night I watched the weather report and saw from the radar there was a pretty good snowstorm heading north and east. The geese were roughly flying towards the Montezuma bird sanctuary, and likely bedding down until the storm passed. They are smarter than I am because I decided it would be a good night to drive to the mall.

There! I am glad that is settled. Next time I promise I will report on something that matters. Also remember I do not always tell the truth, but I always admit when I am lying. That is truth.

I sometimes tell a lie to embellish a story or make a point, but I try very hard not to lie to hurt anyone. That is truth.

Spring arrived today and it is just barely above freezing and snowing. That is truth.

I am so glad it is gray, damp, and wet outside. That is a lie. Most of my lies will be harder to find! *-)
