Thankful for: 

Not having to set my alarm for this morning. 

Sitting outside with Higbee for a long time this morning. We both like to sit quietly and see what we can see. I used my crow call to call some crows to me. I read they like peanuts but they wouldn't come down to the ground. I would really love to make friends with a crow.
