What's New This Week


Rain, Rain, and more Rain here in Colorado. It finally stopped on Saturday night. We had water every where, and even a little snow. It is supposed to be close to 80 degrees this week. I am loving it. This is one of the best times of year in Colorado. I just love Spring.

What have I been working on since our last update? Let me think, I have gotten a few more stitcheries done, and a couple pugs are in there too, along with a few angels, and spring flowers. Oh, did I mention that we have several new birdhouses, a few bird feeders, and other fabulous garden décor.

I have got so many ideas floating through my head, but I am undecided as to which way to go so far. I am excited about the warm weather, so I am leaning more towards making more spring stuff with lots of colors. I am also getting the itch to do more painting.

Art Night - Huge Success


Art Night Out was another HUGE success. We had great weather last night, lots of music, food and of course shopping. I finally made it home last night at 11:30. I keep getting asked if we're going to this type of thing often. YES, we are. We as a business community are glad that the community is enjoying the evenings out.


Our next Art Night out is June 19th from 6 pm - 10 pm. I will post more info as it becomes available, but make sure that you put June 19th on your calendar.


Have a Great Easter.

More Wildlife Live Cameras


This webcam link has several eagle nests with eaglets, and some owls. A couple even have sound.



As I said previously Kay and Jay (the red tail hawks) in Tulsa, Ok will not be hatching eggs this year. During a snow storm, Kay got too cold and couldn't keep the eggs warm. I am really disappointed. They are such pretty birds.

Hope you enjoy.

Snow, Snow and more Snow

Well it looks like the weather people might have finally gotten the snow forcast right this time. I am stuck at home today with a 9 yr old that needs to go outside and play, but too much wind and snow, but hey he did get a good coat, snow pants, and snow boots for Christmas. Think I came up with an idea. ha ha

Got up this morning to find a set of very new triplets. Mom and babies are doing great. No pics yet as I left the camera at the store.



Now I must get back to work, and a little hawk and eagle watching.


Have a great Sunday. The weather is beautiful here in Colorado but it supposed to turn tomorrow.
Have a great Sunday.

Sutton Center Bald Eagle Nest Cam 2009 - update


Newer update ~ I have seen the eaglet and got to watch the first feeding. So cute watching both mom and dad there. The eaglet is a little grey fluff ball.

We have an eaglet. I haven't seen it yet, it hatched last night. Why do all the birthings happen at night when we're sleeping?

Here is the link again if you haven't saved it to you favorites.



Have a great weekend.

We have BABIES


Woke up to our first set of Twins this morning. What a great day to have a new set of babies, on the First Day of Spring.


Below is a picture of mom and babies, one boy and one girl. Not a great picture, but I'll get another one when the sun is in the other direction.
