Need to add chickadee's to my birder list, also boat tailed grackles, mallards and mockingbirds.

I'm learning ASL (American Sign Language) from my dear Lori, who has more than graciously put me up for the past three weeks, and loaned me her car so I could visit Mom. She is Mom's newest daughter, and my newest sister... :-) At any rate ASL is different from the English sign language I learned years ago. Mostly all I ever learned was finger spell, and a few graphic signs. I never learned to read sign very well at all. Whole nother story now. Have learned probably 45 new signs, mostly theocratic language. What else...? Can count up to 14 which is not much, but it is a beginning. Have been signing in front of a mirror so that I can see what it looks like. Of course being left handed makes some of it a bit awkward. Can hardly wait to show Bonnie what I've learned. Went in ASL service doing a deaf search also.

That's it for now, gotta go... :-)
