No More Early Hour Bird Chirping!!!

         This may sound crazy but I dispise PIGEONS who constantly chirp 15 min before dawn and then continue all morning! My neighbor who owned the house where these pigeons have roosted in the eaves would shoot them and remedy the problem. They have moved last summer. So since then if my neighbors ever looked out of their 2 story windows into my back yard would see a lady in her nightgown running out to shoo away the birds! Sometimes my good hubby would take the broom and shoo them so I didn't have to wake at 5am!

      Good news! After returning from Dale's swearing in yesterday, my wonderful 78 year old father helped me extend my 23' ladder up the side of the 2 story house and place chicken wire into the eaves to prevent the birds from roosting in any shape or form!  (Husband was out of state!)

       It was interesting watching the birds the rest of the day....they would peak over the eave wondering what happened to their home.  YEAH! I was able to sleep and not be awakened by birds this morning!

The Newest Arizona Attorney

Yesterday was a wonderful day for our family. My nephew-in-law, Dale Berg, was one of 12 who were read in and approved by the Chief Justice of the Arizona Supreme Court as Arizona's newest attorney.  Both parents of Dale and Vanessa were there as well as my parents and myself.  The picture below shows the little family with his Supreme Court approval certificate! That is my arm holding the certificate. Hence - you know I was there! ha ha.  This couple fly back to Washington DC where Dale is specializing in Tax Law. He finishes that program in May and then will move back to Arizona (we hope).


The picture below is all of us on the steps of the Arizona Supreme
getting photos of the family. Connie (Vanessa's mom, my sister) is in the red jacket.
