August 17, 2015 Down Time

Down time.
Laziness.
Do nothing all day.


Ok, not all day.  We have enjoyed seafood each day.  We have gone on a bike ride each day.  

Today we found an eye care service.  The nose piece on my glasses broke.  I called our eye care service in Cape Girardeau this morning.  They recommended a location in Pensacola.  We drove there this morning.  They have ordered a new piece which will be in on Thursday.  They are going to replace the the broken piece for the price of the new piece; no labor cost.  Can't beat that!

Here's a few pictures from the last few days.

 A common nighthawk.

 Size of the nighthawk compared to the sign.

Common nighthawks fly in and out of big lights at ball games, race tracks, parking lots, chasing bugs attracted by the lights.  Usually seen in the midwest at night time in fall--football season.

 Least terns are nesting.  The smallest tern of North America.
