Baby Birds at Wicked Stones!


Just look at that! I dont have a clearer picture right now as I dont to distrub the parents. 

We have five baby birds in the nest now! They are about 6 days old in this picture. 

The birds live in the part of the house where the computer is so I get to hear their calls all day. 

With 5 babies we may have to get another bird cage!

Selfie at the Kyanite Mine in Sudbury 2004


Here I am at the Kyanite mine in Sudbury Ontario. 

Kyanite is easier to find when you have a hammer and safety glasses.. 

Guess who didn't have a hammer this trip.  

Blame it on the heat, we forgot to bring it with us.

Treasures from the Kyanite Mine in Sudbury, Ontario. 

This is a picture of some of the nicer pieces that we found. The blue stones that look rectangular are Kyanite.   These are just for our personal collection.

More Hammers!


Hey, other half!!! 

Looking to persuade rocks to come home with us with my dad's hammer might not be a good idea when the wind is kicking up this good! 

Maybe get out of there!

A small peek into our adventures in Northern Ontario this past weekend.  We went searching for some Canadian Quartz to bring home to make jewelry from.  

Did we find some?

YES!! 

Was is awesome?

Double YES!!

Cheers
