colorado springs: Frosty the Deer - 03/11/09 07:29 PM

I took these pictures 2 days ago. I was leaving to drop my son at school and go to work. Jake pointed out to me that the deer were covered in snow. Luckily, I've learned to carry a camera at ALL times and was able to capture these images. We've lived at our home almost 4 years and I have never seen them just waking up and snow covered. It was a treat. Jake and I thought it was funny....plus the bird came in for a morning snack :)

colorado springs: Funny story for Friday - 02/27/09 06:03 AM

Recently I posted about the wonderful birdies that wake me in the morning. It lead me to think of all the wildlife that is in my "neck of the woods". Most of the animals I see all the time, but the first summer that we spent at our home in Mountain Shadows we saw a pack of 10 raccoons. Let me tell you the story.
Everett and I were sitting out on the patio eating our dinner. We were so excited to enjoy our serene hillside and trees; we were eating outside almost every night (the kids were at Grandmas). We … (11 comments)

colorado springs: Spring is near and there's a jackhammer on my chimney - 02/24/09 11:57 PM
 
 Nature is amazing but I didn’t think that it could be so loud.
 
We’ve all seen the funny commercials where the person is sleeping and through the open windows comes the cacophony of the morning bird calls. Well I would love to have that problem. Right around this time all the way through spring and in fall we have the biggest woodpeckers attack our siding. Their favorite place? Yes, the chimney. The echo of their fevered hole drilling beaks crashes into my dreams about 5:30 am in the predawn morning. As soon as there is a thread of light … (10 comments)

colorado springs: Colorado Springs, Big Town......small crime rate - 02/16/09 05:26 AM
One of the hundred reasons I love Colorado Springs. 
Statistics show that Colorado Springs has 50% lower violent crime rate than other cities of comparative population. In other crime we are 22% lower in comparison. Pedestrians have a 76 percent lower than average risk of being killed by a motor vehicle here-among the safest in surveys. This is very good informaion since we are one of the fittest states we have a plethera of people jogging, biking, walking, running, horseback riding...ok I'll stop (more on that later)
 The Colorado Springs Police Department is continually working to improve their service to community. … (4 comments)
