Trading sea life for farm life
Mom and I decided to hold off on taking the computer into the shop. In a way, I am kind of glad because I can process the last minute falcon stuff I got. Today this silly bird brain was on top of a power line ball. It sounded like some juice was running through him. His feathers went out and limp on each side. The falcon was also being teased by a woodpecker.The woodpecker flew around the falcon squawking at it like a little school kid. My mom wrote about my sister's turkey Hillary. It has been awhile. I can not remember what she sounds like. I do feel proud to have a falcon mascot on our street. Many years ago, I had a four leaf clover. This was back when I was in school. I made the mistake of showing the other kids and they tore up the four leaf clover.I hope this falcon has a happy and productive life. Mom and I will be in a different area where there will be no falcons, but the turkey and the chickens should be lots of fun.

When I was young (around 9 or 10 years old) I also found a four leaf clover. I would lie on the grass and look for the four leaf clovers. I did this over the years but never found one until one day to my surprise there was one. I thought to myself that if I could get the seeds from the four leaf clover then I could sell them. Just imagine, four leaf clover seeds. I dug up a piece of the rass sod that was about 6 inches by 6 inches containing the four leaf clover plant. I put it into a pot and brought it into the house. What I am about to tell you seems incredible but it is true. When I got up the next morning there was a small caterpillar munching on the four leaf clover and one of the leaves was completely gone. The small caterpillar must have been hidden down in the grass. Now I had a three-leaf clover thanks to the small caterpillar. I was really discouraged by this turm of events. I took the grass sod back outside and put it back where I had gotten it from. And I have never found another four-leaf clover in the grass again. Enjoy your time in Williston and be sure to take soldier some treats. Lew
