Happy Earth Day from Owen K. Bentley...

What can I say? I'm all about worshiping the ground that I walk on, you know :)

I Can Be Very Quiet, You Know...

I watched two swans swim for quite a while the other day. Quite an achievement if I do say so myself - since there were times I was even afraid to breathe! (Hey, I didn't want to scare them away, you know.)

Anyway, since swans like breadcrumbs, and since I'm all about sharing ...I was happy to feed them lunch. I can tell you two things for certain:

1. Swans are very fast and can catch and devour a crumb in mid flight...

2. Peanut butter makes them choke.

I Like Tiptoeing Through The Tulips...

Since I'm quite good at walking now, I thought I'd try a bit of tiptoeing this morning.

Through the tulips.

And, considering that some of those bell shaped flowers were almost as tall as me, I think I did pretty good...

Okay. I lied. I squashed quite a few of them.

I Was A Sky Gazer Last Night...

I was afraid to close my eyes last night because I wanted to view my second lunar eclipse -since I'm all about the cosmos you know.

Staying awake caused me to miss a little beauty sleep, but seeing Saturn and the star Regulus form a triangle with the moon was well worth the loss...

After all was said and done, I channel surfed for a rerun of Star Trek. Where the heck was William Shatner when I needed him????

Ain't No Mountain High Enough...

Okay, so color me wrong. There is a mountain high enough and I think I may have just lost my stomach on it...

Does anyone know how to stop this thing???

Ah, Ah, Ah, Ah....Choooooooo!

Don't you just love a good sneeze? I'm in heaven when air comes blasting out my nose and cleans out my smeller in the process. That's why I don't understand why people start blessing me and asking me questions after I sneeze...

God Bess You, Owen (Thank you -God Bless You, too)

Gesundheit, Owen (Um, okay, if you say so)

Owen, are you getting sick? (No, it's probably just the leaves and grass. Thanks for your concern.)

Well, excuse you, Owen (Uh, I didn't pass gas, I merely sneezed!)

Cover your mouth, Owen (I would if I knew how, but I don't, so I won't)

Want a tissue, Owen? (Sure, are we going to wrap gifts or something?)

And people wonder why I smile all the time??? People crack me up. That's why.

I Could Wile Away The Hours, Conferrin' With The Flowers...

Consultin' with the rain:
(See, I've done that...)

And my head I'd be scratchin' :
(I've done that, too...)

While my thoughts were busy hatchin' :
(Of course I've hatched things..)

If I only had a brain...

Yep. Sorry all you scarecrows out there, but I meet all the criteria for a brain. I already have one, and I'm pretty darn smart-ful.

Now, if my calculations are right, there should be a road made of yellow brick somewhere close.

I'm Shocked I Tell You, Totally Shocked...

I don't know what happened, but when I woke up this morning and looked out my bedroom window, I got a huge eye opener. All the leaves on the trees were orange! That's right ...orange. Pretty? Yes, but where did all the green leaves go??? Oh, I bet I know what happened ...

I'm thinking the trees had one to many helpings of sweet potatoes.

Mmmm, Mmmm, Mmmm...

I have no idea what this is, but it sure smells good...

I think I'll claim it as my own and put it in my room.

Just Another Reason Why I Love A Full Moon...

I've been lying quietly in my crib for quite a while now. My little peepers are gazing out the window because I'm waiting for the lunar eclipse. Why? Well because...

1.     There has to be a full moon. (I love looking at full moons)

2.     The moon has to pass through some part of the earths shadow. (Quite interesting, don't you think?)

3.      The moon could turn orange or even a purple color tonight! (I'm all about bright colors, so what's not to love about that?)

I'm not going to sleep until I see some action. Come-on Mr. Moon, I'm waiting....
