http://willapajames.blogspot.com/2012/01/some-christmas-and-winter-photos.html
The Chronicles of Willapa. Monday, January 2. Some Christmas and Winter Photos. Patrick zoned out on Sesame Street. Evan being an attentive parent while Patrick shoves stuff in his mouth. Shoving more stuff in his mouth. I think that one isn't going to fit. Leave me alone, I just got back from an all-night bender. First food besides milk. He likes it a lot! All dressed up and ready to go out for New Year's. What a beautiful wife I have. Yard after a snow shower. Maple tree in the front yard.

The Chronicles of Willapa...: March 2012
http://willapajames.blogspot.com/2012_03_01_archive.html
The Chronicles of Willapa. Wednesday, March 21. Sorry about the hiatus. just been lazy. Crazy warm weather here lately. In the 70's for a week! Right about this time last year we had a 3 foot dump of snow, so hopefully that won't happen again. Snow is long gone now, from the woods, and the mountains (except the ski slopes). Hope it stays that way! We've had her about a month so far and she's wicked sweet. Less skittish than other cats I've been around lately too. So yeah, it's spring! Stowe, VT Weather.

The Chronicles of Willapa. Thursday, November 18. Omaha's Henry Doorly Zoo. Some cool critters I've never heard off and some I have that I've been wanting to see. I'll let the pictures do the talking. Some sort of bluebird. More cool indoor jungle. Nile Softshell taking a snooze. Largest indoor jungle in the U.S. The trunks are cement, but the rest is real. One of the coolest things I saw; arapaima. They are gigantic! Some sort of tropical butterfly. Some butterflies trying to get out. Atlas moth. Big.

The Chronicles of Willapa. Thursday, June 9. Just got back from a short trip to England, before that I was in South Carolina. Work is picking back up again,. And I'll be busier than usual due to some developments at work. Too bad it's never busy in winter. oh well. Mom and Dad are off sailing up the coast of BC, living it up. I can't wait to see some pictures and hear some stories from that trip. Bet it's been amazing! Anywho, here's a handful of pictures from the last couple months. A female green frog&...

The Chronicles of Willapa...: Bird ID and Sun Dogs.
http://willapajames.blogspot.com/2012/01/bird-id-and-sun-dogs.html
The Chronicles of Willapa. Sunday, January 15. Bird ID and Sun Dogs. So that bird I thought was a pheasant might actually have been a grouse. I spotted it again in the same general spot (near my garden patch), and when it was flying, it had a crest on its head like a grouse. So I'm not sure what it is. The tail feathers seem long for a grouse, but what do I know? Anyone got a positive ID? Do you know what I am? Tricky trying to take a photo through the sextant, while trying to keep it lined up. You has a...

The Chronicles of Willapa. Tuesday, December 21. And they even have the same name I had in mind! There goes my chance to be a billionaire. Anywho, they still sound kinda neat, and I might get one just to see if it's a total novelty, or something you'd actually want to light when company is around. Mandles - Candles for Men. Cruise Ship Deck" (sun tan lotion? Jim, Jack, and Johnny" (whiskey I assume), and "Wild West". Anywho, back to the drawing board. Driving around Huddersfield in "Arctic Conditions".
