night eagle in colorado springs

[shanebo]

My wife and I were headed to the hospital to see a friend of hers that got in a pretty serious motorcycle crash. We stopped at a 7-11 for some gas. My wife was going on and on about how I need to sell my Harley cuz its so dangerous...I just nodding my head at her....in one ear out the other kinda thing.....all of a sudden I looked up and an eagle was going down the street, with ninja like reflexes I whipped out the phone and snapped a shot....man did she get mad....I got the whole you weren't listening to a word I said lecture but hey, it was an eagles...from Utah to boot....not a great pic but here it is

OMG, that's a great story Shane!!  I was laughing reading that... And Man, you are quick with that phone, you must have been a paparazzi or something to be that quick with a phone camera.


and Eaglefreek, I LOVE that commercial... it cracks me up everytime.  I love how he widens his eyes trying to focus on his wife...

That is awesome!!!  Excuse me I have to go have my quiche for dinner now 

[shanebo]

  That is some good stuff right there...I have a feeling i'm on a one way track to the dog house if I don't straighten up my act.....Which I probably wont, so I guess its off to the dog house  go

I'm sure you'll find more than one of us in the dog house when you get there Shanebo!  We can swap Eagle stories while we're folding clothes.

If the dog house had a doorman, we'd be on a first name basis by now.

I'm in the doghouse so much I answer when someone says Rover!

My wife will probably put one of those Home Again chips in my neck while I'm sleeping, like she did with our troublesome beagle...when I'm routin' around junk yards and fly by night dealerships looking for my next amc the employees will probably scan me with one of those wands and call her to come pick me up.
