My wife outdid herself on this one.  This will definately cut down on repeat trips on the booty.

Sweet  Wagon Josh. Bring those tools on down my way! I'm sure we can find good uses for them.

Actually, either, it'll hold up to 500 lbs.  We could throw Shag in there after those long hikes in, and drag him back out.  Zane, maybe tomorrow?  You have any plans?

Man Josh, You can put alot of glass in that wagon before you hit 500lbs. Quite a few gold and silver coins too.

Of course if you did get her just a pot holder you may need a top on that wagon and some kind of matress so the sides don't dig into you ribs.

I love the looks of those tuxedo wearing vultures. They are starting to increase in population here in the adirondacks as well. I've only seen about 7 and that has only been in the past few years. Swizzle

I've heard of people refering to bald eagles as vultures in tuxedo's. Because of there habit of eatting dead carcasses. They are more of a scavenger then a hunter. Nevertheless they are a very beautiful bird. The closest I've been to one is an immature eagle that I saw last spring flying up and down the creek maybe 30 feet away. That one didn't have his white head yet. They are an impressive sight no matter where you see them. I'm by no means trying to say that our national bird is disgusting. Its a very magestic bird that demands attention whenever one is close by. I look for them whenever I go hiking. My buddy has a pic of 2 of them that he took and I got a pic of one on a disposible camera. Swizzle

They will eat anything they can find if they can't get fish. I saw one slam a few buzzards for a dog carcass. He was huge. I say at least 3ft tall.

The buzzards were in shock and just sat around and waited for the eagle to finish.

I didn't know that.  We've had fish eagles in huge numbers forever, but it's good to see any of the big birds come back.  I wonder if they'll survive eating the fish out of that river, especially so close to the landfill.

Bald Eagles are usually migrating visitors that will return north when the thaw comes. There are lots of Goldens out here, and a few year round resident Baldies that hang in the high Sierra. There are many down here at this time to feast on the dead Salmon in the local river.
