The Chrisses

Once in awhile I look back over events in my life. I think about people I knew in the past and present and one name seems to reoccur. This name, or a derivative of it, has been present at just about every junction of my life. Of course you have probably guessed it by now.

Worth a thousand words

This pretty much says it all for me.

Faith and science

I was having a heavy rap with a very wise and cherished friend of mine yesterday. She in turn has a friend who is a scientist. These are her observations about him. I don’t mean to pick on scientists at all, I respect them highly and some are actually quite spirit-minded after seeing natural wonders [...]

Cory in Action

Cory is a blur of energy. He has discovered the joys of the indoor temperature-controlled Burger King jungle gym. Where else can you climb to new heights, make friends, and run around in your socks? You should have seen the bottom of his socks when he was done! It was hard getting a good shot [...]

A good picture of Me

“Pixel”!
Is that a good name for a small bird, or what?
I’m still stuck on “Gobi” though.
We won’t know till Saturday which name wins!

Mother’s Market

Anyway, I went to Mother’s today to pick up a few things I needed. Since [...]

Gobi is coming home

Our new Orange Chin is coming home on Saturday. He is one of the three on the right, we’re not sure which! This is a picture of him and his fellow Brotos (Brotogeris is the species of bird) at the breeders where they were recently hatched. He’s only a few months old and just weaned. [...]
