So glad you had a safe landing, after the tree trimming, also loved the beautiful story, and those beautiful pictures as well ..

Blessed indeed, Martha. But He must love us all equally or not at all. Perhaps just lucky in life.

glad the tree-trimming had a safe conclusion... otters look so sweet and adorable, but they can be little terrors--this read like a horror story, haha ;-) but those photos are stunning, wow!

Yes, she's adorable, but a traveling calamity. Bridget has an eye for photos. So do you. I envy you both that.

I love reading your stories. Number one, your wife should call the firemen when you walk out to the tree. No sense waiting until the

last moment. Thank you for caring about the world's most precious asset - wildlife.

Bridget is a wonderful photographer. I wouldn't think you had a vote in when to call for rescue. I loved the story of the otter.
