I don't know what kind of bird it was. Any ideas? UPDATE: It's an Eastern Kingbird!

Our neighbor's white wisteria was beautiful this morning. The light was perfect. It made me hopeful that my brother was smiling down on us from Heaven. Today would have been his 53rd birthday. We miss you, David.

I've been to the river many times, but have never seen it so high. The bridge definitely has to be raised when river barges comes through.
