Need to transfer files to free up some space on my Galaxy8... too many cat pictures, mostly >^..^< (those will go here soon > THE ULTIMATE CAT THREAD)
^ I was out front working on my car when I heard this crow squawking to another across the street. Since crows are super smart, and reputed to gather their numbers to reign down upon anyone who dares cross them, I held up a band sticker to 'em and said "Check out our 'crow-go'
We cool, right?" (Never mess with anything that's group is referred to as a 'murder!')
And this little guy (and I do mean little!) was just chilling behind the rolled down window as I was tinkering with the inside door panel >
For scale, you can kinda see him in the bigger picture... before he got freaked out and made a blurry exit thru the window slot >
Nature rocks

This is why I try not to drive between 3-7pm if I don't have to... I could SEE the Olive Tower building from 3 blocks up the hill, but it took me 15 minutes of inching thru many changing green-red traffic signal cycles to get to it 
(Would've taken longer if I didn't know the area well enough to bust a left thru an alley and then 2 rights)

I took a detour via our local park on the way home today.

Home-made burgers and sweet potato wedges...

Later on in the day I finally got the shot I’ve wanted of a local character known as the Steller’s Jay.

This is the park where I've been taking my great-niece for years. It's a relatively young park with, as you can see, lots of wide-open space and generous paved paths for walking, bike riding, etc. It has remained a very clean, family-friendly park, and I sincerely hope it stays that way:
Outstanding! My wife and I love Lake Tahoe and Emerald Bay in particular.
I need to know about the wedges. Do you sprinkle anything on them? Broiled? Baked? Grilled?
You have two of my favorite foods on Earth on one plate.
About twenty minutes ago....
Wedges. Chop the sweet potatoes into chunks, par-boil them, then I put them in a bowl with a little bit of olive oil and individually attach exactly 15 grains of sea salt, 7 bits of ground black pepper, and a whisper of Hog's Breath seasoning ( you may have to go to Key West for this) to each chunk.
Preheated oven (about half way), throw them on a baking sheet on a tray and cook them for 33 minutes...or until they stop screaming.
Enjoy!
