No, we don't have cardinals in Newfoundland. I wish we did, they are beautiful. I've only seen 1 or 2 before, in Ottawa. We have no snow, LOL. That picture was taken Friday. It's all melted now and today it's foggy.

Vetaal, I meant to add that your picture could use a caption, as one of them appears to be speaking. What are they? Some kind of deer I don't recognize, I guess. Those racks are something to behold!

The "Big Tree". The largest Alligator Juniper (Juniperus deppeana) in the world, near Fort Bayard. If I remember correctly it's 72 feet tall. Ron

Susan, yes DH (age 58) has the same waist plus maybe an inch. These two photos were taken last July and November. July we spent four days in San Diego where he was in the Navy. The Nov pic was taken on Thanksgiving. I have to add that he plays tennis twice a day, six days a week and coaches high school tennis three mornings a week. On the day he doesn't play tennis, he and a couple friends ride their bicycles 25 miles. Jodi-
