Random 5 Friday
1. I went to Target yesterday. I have been buying Merona bootcut jeans for the past few years. They no longer have them in the store. What they have instead is a new brand made by Levi's. As is often the case with Levi's, they don't come in Long. I need Long. I have a very long inseam. And I need stretchy. Tight skinny jeans don't work for me. Now what? Guess I'll check online.
2. One of our neighbors stopped by a few days ago. There is finally discussion about how to get our road work planned. Turns out, the newest neighbor at the end of the road has the equipment and sometimes has access to overages at road jobs. None of us wants to spend thousands and thousands of dollars, so this would be great if it can be accomplished.
3. It's been nice having a bird feeder hanging in the tree for the first time. I was hoping to attract finches with the Niger seed. But here's what I see most of the time. The sparrows sit on the feeder, spill seeds on the ground, the chickens wait below and eat the falling seeds. Turns out, even though the chickens could give a rat's a$$ about sharing their chicken feed, they aren't too keen on sharing the wild bird seed.
4. I am still riding Beau about 5 times a week. And I am making progress. With this gorgeous Fall weather, it makes for wonderful mornings. And tighter muscles.
5. I recently got one of Kelly Moore's photography handbags. My sister helped me with the purchase as a birthday gift to me. Thanks again, Sis! I have the Two Sues in Indigo. It's a very pretty color and I can fit my Nikon D7000 inside with the 28-300mm lens. Pretty cool. I've looked at these bags for a long time and never wanted to spend the money. Now I have one and I'm happy about that.

Donkey tongue ~ too funny !!
Glad you are getting in the riding time.
Don't you hate it when you find something you like, and they stop making them? Ack!! That always happens, especially with jeans and bras...what's the deal? Road work is very expensive, hoping you get the details worked out and get it done. That would be great! Beautiful sky shots - love clouds!!
Oh, I'm totally jealous about you getting to ride 5x a week!!
My chickens do the same thing here and the sparrows are rooting through the millet mix, tossing out lots of stuff they don't like to waiting beaks below. Pretty expensive chicken feed when you do the math, which I don't. :)
I glad you're getting to ride Beau, and I hope you're having some fun this weekend!
anyhow, i never use a decorative bag, always my black camera back pack....it carries everything even if i only grab my camera with one lens, i know everything else is in the car...in my bag.
looking at new lenses...and thinking the 85mm is what i really need :)
