Here it is...
The end of July.
Lachlan turns two months old tomorrow!
He smiles, now...and likes to growl at Dad while gumming on his finger.
And he snores!
John and I just returned home after our Summer Adventure...including (new to me) a trip to Cheddar's. How have I never been to one of these???
Amazing place...lovely decor....perfect service and ohmigod the food!!!!
Next time we will dine al fresco by the waterfall, honey!
Planning our August Getaway together..and going to see the new Deadpool/Wolverine.
And politics...
Anyone else suffering from whiplash from the past week?
SERIOUSLY!
On Sunday, President Biden informed us he would not be accepting the nomination...and we were all
...ohshitohshitohshit....
Then Monday, Kamala decided to toss her hat into the ring and we were
...itmightbeokay...
Now she has been endorsed by...well...pretty much everyone and has already secured the delegates for nomination and we are awestruck!!!
...last count over 200 million in funds...
I think we've got this.
I haven't seen an outpouring of support across party lines like this since Obama!!!
On the 7th she announced her choice for VP...but all of the short list looks good and bring their special something to the table.
I'd like to see Mayor Pete...but any of them are outstanding.
And the salmon...and bears have taken over The Falls!
With always fun to watch Scuba Steve (#27) back with his flying leap fishing style.
And Grazer's cubs...
Which have been dubbed Biggie (the female) and Smalls (The tiny male...who I call Itty Bitty)
And most of the cubs this year are 1.5 to 3 years old...these two are the only tiny Spring Cubs seen at The Falls, this year so far.
Creating a panic when live on camera the littlest floated right over the falls and directly into Chunk (#32) who has been flaunting his dominance all summer.
It was horrific.
Grazer immediately dove off the falls and onto Chunk...open mouth...teeth bared and claws flying.
Chunk had the cub in his mouth and was shaking it.
He immediately dropped it...and it floated downstream injured.
Mother Grazer was pissed.
So pissed off that she kicked his ass...turned around and beat the hell out of him again!
...poor Chunk is an absolute mess today...torn up...
Then she ran downstream and caught up with the tiny screaming injured cub.
It appears he bit him through at least one of his shoulder blades.
To be honest, I fully anticipated Itty Bitty not to survive the night.
He seemed shocky and laid on his side motionless.
But it seems the little guy is scrappy and wants to survive. Unable to use his front legs today...a situation which may resolve itself as he heals...he is walking around human-like on his hind legs...nursing...down to the water...it has been amazing.
I cried when I saw he had made it through the night.
So now...we wait.
It has been a week!
Love,
Carla and Tux
