I got up early to find out they had closed school. I cannot tell you how glad I was to get the four wheel drive car last night. Oh, I did not tell about that yet. I got a good deal on a 2005 Trail Blazer; I did not get a good deal on the Saturn trade it, but it all worked out in the end. By the time I left the dealership it was like a blizzard. I got up the mountain without a problem; I would have had to walk up if I had not switched. I will put a photo up. (School is closed tomorrow also, but it is an optional teacher work day. I will go later, once it is light out.)
So, I cranked up the hot tub and had a soak. The only problem with winter tubbing is getting to the darn tub. Brrrrrrrr
Here is the new car. The more I think about it, the more I am happy with it. I always name my cars, except the last one for some reason. Carrie suggest I name this one Cher, because like Cher, it is old but keeps going and going strong.
When the leaves fall from the trees, many nests become visible. Some are bird, and some are squirrel. There is one I just noticed that is round, and I knew it was neither bird nor squirrel. I looked it up. It is a hornets’ nest.
They are not reused, so I would like to take it down, but it is really high. I think it is very interesting.
Information about hornet and its nest. Interesting. And I might say how much I love my camera. That thing is pretty high up, and I cropped it and enlarged the crop.

I knew it was a hornet’s nest before I read what you wrote….Once you see one with live Hornet’s up close you never ever forget it.
