Thanks. That last one of the King Vulture was a cheat. I tried several times to get a good picture of the bird in the enclosure, but the fencing was in the way, and the bird kept moving. So instead I took a picture of the large poster of the bird on the information sign right outside the enclosure. Its similar to this picture of a poster in the Iguassu Falls gift shop, where there was no way for me to get the shot without taking an expensive helicopter ride. However I still wanted to capture the overall view of the falls so I could remember them and explain them to others.

I upholstered this little ottoman yesterday to go with my black & white Southern Living Greek key bedroom duvet cover set. If you look closely, the feet are a modern day version of ball 'n claw feet.

I love them EVERY day....so thank you all for giving me such pleasure. You all are so talented...it is just like getting one of those "Taste of Home" magazines (no ads) .... I can't remember the name of the magazine...just remember how hard it was to part with them.

Jim, we went through the canal in January and somehow I missed seeing that lighthouse. I'll blame it on trying to see over all the bodies that were also trying to see what was going on. We were out on deck by 7:00a.m. and that still wasn't early enough - the early birds beat us to all the good spots!
