Stradee, thanks for the link. The bird looks wonderful.

My husband is getting ready for Nashville, Tennessee. Speaking of missing your side of the world. Sigh.

Wayfarer, it is getting uncomfortable here too.

Oh, ul, Nashville is the site of one of our more interesting presidents (Andrew Jackson's) home - the Hermitage. It is, IMHO, the most interesting because immediately after his death, his wife gathered her personal items and donated the home as a museum. It's the same now as then.

Hi all,

Ul, your welcome

At the page, be sure and click the turtle icon where it says <begin your journey> on the lower portion of the bird photo. You will be transformed to the most wonderful NG photos with explainations from the leading scientists of the project. The presentation is multimedia, and my take a few minutes if you have dial - but well worth the wait.

When do you plan visiting again? We so enjoyed hearing your travel stories! Smile Hope you can visit again soon.

dev, so glad your son enjoyed the photographs! You can sign at the NG homepage for free e mails. Space.com, NASA, and Discovery all have kids pages where your son can view awsome photos, plus there are interactive fun things for kids to do at all three pages. I believe NG also has a kids page.

Danon, were you able to see the entire presentation? If not, click the 'multi-media' link at the top of the page, or the trutle icon.

pwayfarer, where are the photos of the elusive coocoo (?) and is it a bird that lives outside of a clock? Inquiring minds, etc. Very Happy

A reminder for ya all wildckickers ~ the hummingbirds are beginning to scatter, but remember to replenish bird feeders cause the little critters stop at watering places during their migration. Those that remain also need food for the winter months - and will love you for it. Smile

That's great stuff Stradee........... I especially like the page where new NASA director Mike Griffin sez the the plans to scrap Hubble will be reexamined.

Just think of all those beings out there looking at pictures of distant galaxies - wondering if there is life other than on their planets.

Ditto dev.........


((Reminds me of once while still in military. My boss at the time was named Dana (guy). One day he gave me a small thing to do. I did it and wrote the following:
Dana,
Done.
Dan))
