That Seagull in the Snow Sing Along

About ten days ago I posted pictures of seagulls in the snow down near the harbor. The one below in particular looked really pissed off. My friend at www.rinklyrimes.blogspot.com saw it and decided to give him his hour of fame by writing lyrics to the tune of Winter Wonderland and it's priceless! But that was about the time my computer problems started and I didn't ever get it over to my blog from hers. So I'm doing it now. You gotta sing along with this one!

Seagull in the Snow
I've been out in all weathers,
And it's ruffled my feathers,
But this is a first:
I hope it's the worst.
Who would be a Seagull in the Snow?

I can feel my beak freezing
And it isn't too pleasing,
And as for the feet
They long for some heat.
Who would be a Seagull in the Snow?

I can tell you life is getting dicey;
All the worms are deep beneath the ground!
Look at my expression! It is icy!
You are by the fire I'll be bound!

See, my eye! It's so beady!
It's a sign that I'm needy.
Though I'm on the beach
I can't raise a screech!
Who would be a Seagull in the Snow!

Have a good weekend!

Seagulls in the Snow

Adam and I went down to the harbor this morning to enjoy the snow scene from there. The seagulls looked a little puzzled!

Snow in Seattle

We had a little over three inches of snow last night and while that's nothing compared to what's happening in New England, it's still a lot for us. I took these too early really, but I knew once the sun came out the snow would disappear quickly. And sure enough, the sun is out now. We're supposed to get more snow later today, but we'll see. In the meantime, it's lovely.

How About Snow in New Orleans?



A friend of mine in Dallas sent me these unusual shots of snow in New Orleans!


What Can I Say?

What Can I Say?
I'm interested in almost everything. Use to like to travel, but it's too expensive now. I take Tai Chi classes, swim, volunteer in a Jump-start program for pre-schoolers. I'm an avid reader and like nearly everyone these days I follow politics avidly. I'm a former teacher and Special Projects Coordinator for a Telecommunications company, Assistant to the President of a Japanese silicon wafer manufacturing company. Am now enjoying retirement -- most of the time. I have two daughters, one son-in-law and two sons scattered all over the country. No grandchildren.
