You sound like the lady on my GPS: "recalculating"
I have completely smashed two of my hubcaps. They look really sad, and bad!


I'll just have to re-calibrate is all.
=======================

In your case, if you say a road is 'terrifying',
I need to translate it as 'this might be a fun road
to drive up'.

Can't drive over the DE Memorial Bridge, either. I'll have take the fairy ferry.

=================================

Hanging out with good people can be a lot of fun.

On this we agree wholeheartedly.

=================================

annual Christmas bird count.

They really have this? I guess so! T'aint my thing, for sure.

=====================

But grizzly bears are OK. As long as I'm watching them
from a safe distance

Another reason to own a gun. I did get in trouble with a ranger for getting out of my car to take a picture of one. What was I thinking?



If you think education is expensive, try ignorance.

It's all good.
I'll just have to re-calibrate is all.

For example, if Clo claims something, I know the truth
is about a quarter mile to the right of what she said.

In your case, if you say a road is 'terrifying',
I need to translate it as 'this might be a fun road
to drive up'.

Bird watching is fun if, either A.) one is already an avid birder.
Or, B.) one is with avid birders who really know the birds and
one lets their obvious delight infect them as well.

Hanging out with good people can be a lot of fun.

I remember once, when I was volunteering at Back Bay,
it was time for the annual Christmas bird count. I
got to hold the clipboard and write down what the others
said they saw. We saw a flock of birds about a quarter
mile away and Donna, a ranger type employee at the
Refuge, said they was ring billed gulls, about 70 of
them. Now I'd already learned about estimating a tenth
of the flock, counting how many and multiply by ten so
seventy was not a stretch. I asked how do you know they
is ring billed gulls? Ten minutes later the boat was
closer and I got a good luck through the binoculars,
and, sure enough, they was ring billed gulls.

But grizzly bears are OK. As long as I'm watching them
from a safe distance.

Zim.
