Since it is so dismal here today I'm cheering myself up looking at my backyard Sunflower images.

These plants are two of the eight that were 'gifts' from the birds and squirrels who dropped the seeds from my feeders :D

Good morning. And thank you all for your supportive thoughts and prayers for Ed and the coming tests. (((GH))) I was awake for hours last night worrying and have a Migraine as a result. :(

It's hard to imagine it's been three years since that horrible morning we learned the awful news about Limuw. :'( :candle:

Penny your Sunflowers are just the cheerful thing to brighten up the day. :*:

Have a great Sunday whatever you all are doing. :}^

Forgot to ad this bit of good news from an email I got today: Gray Wolf back on endangered list in Idaho. :)^

Love your cheerful sunflowers, Penny. We used to have the boys grow them when they were younger. One time a squirrel yanked off the entire sunflower head and dragged it off to eat. :D Funny memory.

Thank you for posting the note about Limuw. I was so attached to him, as we all were.

Topa, a baby shower ... sounds like fun.

Kris, sorry you have such a migraine from the worrying. Wish I could be there to make you a cup of tea or something.
:Hugs:

Aww, Cheryl thanks, I do too, that sounds really nice. :Hugs:

A very funny image of the Squirrel dragging off the Sunflower head.  :lol: I can just imagine it. They 're so resourceful and will do almost anything to get at food. :Yum:

Lily the Black Bear - Update August 15, 2010 - 8:14 PM CDT

Lily and Hope Together
:wub:

Lily & Hope together - August 15, 2010

Lily and Hope are together like nothing had happened. The neat thing about it was that Lily was actively searching for Hope. The reunion happened with Hope bawling and scent-trailing Lily, but along the way Lily also searched for Hope. They may separate from time to time as they did for the last two nights, but other cubs also get separated from their mothers. The fact that Lily searched for Hope makes us ever more confident they will be together for the long haul and den together in about a month and a half.

Corelyn has gotten 66 survey responses from teachers in 31 states and two provinces. This is a great start. We suspect more will come in when school starts and teachers are back in the grind. All aspects of the Education Outreach are going well.

Your voting in the Coca Cola Favorite Parks contest is unbelievable, with Bear Head Lake State Park now 334,000 votes in the lead.

Repercussions from the last time you got behind voting like that - making Ely the Coolest Small Town in America - are still bringing benefits to Ely. Budget Travel Magazine's writer is in Ely right not gathering information for an article in the March Issue of the magazine. This article will include the bears.

Thank you for all you do.

Penny I just read your update and loved to know "Lily searched for Hope"! :wub: After their long separation it's such a miracle and a blessing to me that they're now so bonded. <3

Not to end on a downer but, lest we not forget the oil spill, I just found and perused this CNN update page and it's links.. seasick :hair: :'( As one commentator said "The dispersant's job is to sink oil", so it's washing up from under the surface. :'(
