  • Wood Duck search at Bellwood Lake

    Tyler, Texas, February 2026 Tyler Texas Autobom bird society indicated that Lake Bellwood was a good place to look for including the infamous wood duck. First, we had to go under the railroad tracks. That said 7 feet but looked lower. I recommend turning up the volume before playing the video. Wow that was fun…

  • $10.00 Reward…

    Tyler State Park, TX, February 2026 … for any information leading to the arrest of the masked bandit that chased us on the way to the shower house. The raccoon was not being aggressive or acting odd. Our best guess is that people feed the raccoons or leave food out on picnic tables, like nitwits.…

  • No Jay-walking

    Tyler State Park, TX, February 2026 No tickets to hand out here. None of them were walking. They were all flying or hopping. John saw a bird about 30 to 40 feet up in a tree behind the RV. We had seen a few birds that we did not have pictures of, yet. Nothing uncommon,…

After seeing all the turtles on the first hike with only cellphone for pictures, we went looking for the turtles again to get better pictures. Since John was carrying camera gear, we decided to drive. At the floating fishing pier, we looked for the grebes,…

  • Transformers in Stillwater, Oklahoma

    Stillwater, OK, January 2026 We visited John’s aunt in Cushing, Oklahoma. During the visit, we drove to Stillwater, Oklahoma to look at potential RV parks and punch into the Stillwater YMCA. You are probably wondering why punch in at the Stillwater YMCA. Currently, I am testing what punch ins show up as attendance because our…

  • Scott Branch Bull Creek

    Hillsdale State Park, KS, November 2025 Hillsdale Resevoir looks a little like a chicken foot. It branches off in a bunch of directions away from the dam. The chicken toe that most of Hillsdale State Park borders is the Scott Branch Bull Creek. Do not ask us; we did not name it. I assume the…
