Humming Birds

My daughter put up her hummingbird feeders a few weeks ago and we have been having a good time watching them. One feeder is close to the table so we get a good close look at them.
I read to figure out how many hummingbirds you have coming to your feeder you should 6x the amount you see at one time at the feeder. That would mean we have about 12 birds visiting.
One is a bully and drives off the others and we frequently have to duck as they zoom past us.

Bless them all

Last night I was watching TV when lyrics popped into my head. I don't know why it did, it had nothing to do with what I was watching.
"Bless them all, Bless them all, the long and the short and the tall.."
That's all I remember of this song and I didn't know where I knew it from. I thought it might be from an old war movie.
I had to research it when I got up.

BLESS 'EM ALL

Words and Music by Irving Berlin

Bless 'em all, bless 'em all
The long and the short and the tall
Bless all the sergeants and W.O. Ones
Bless all the corp'rals and their blinking sons
For we're saying good-bye to them all
As back to the barracks we crawl
You'll get no promotion this side of the ocean
So cheer up my lads Bless 'em all.

I guess there are worse songs to get stuck in your head.

Schooner

We went on the Biloxi Schooner yesterday. My first time on a sail boat. It was an interesting time. I'm glad I went but I don't think I want to go on a schooner again. You get baked in the sun. We saw some dolphins, the kids really enjoyed that. It was over two hours and that was more then enough time.

Afterwards we went to eddys and had some delicious hamburgers :)
