Friday Fences & Random 5's

(click on photo to enlarge)

Booker T Washington National Park in Franklin County
Friday Fences

Randoms:

1) Yesterday our high school was on lockdown for a few hours because of a bomb threat. FBI even came out and searched the school and all the kids backpacks. I normally leave school at 1:30 but we all ended up having to stay till after 3 so I checked Christian out and we came home. It was a long day...you can read more HERE

2) On my way to pick up Christian from work last night I was listening to Oprah radio on Sirius and they were talking about the new lead singer for Journey, Arnel Pineda. He was raised in a house with little money then his mom died when he was only 13 and he ended up homeless...you can read the rest HERE...needless to say I was crying by the time I got to Kroger lol

3) Also on the way to pick up Christian last night, I saw a big, beautiful buck running in the grass at the elementary school. He was running back and forth under the light. He'd stop, then run a few steps the other way, then stop....hope he survives hunting season :( .....I saw this neat video the other day:

I got a deer..I wait a second

4) I'm getting a cold. My nose is stuffy and my throat hurts. I'm drinking Airborne and should be feeling better soon!

5) Tonight is the last high school football game. So far they are undefeated. Fingers crossed! It's going to be COLD out there tonight in the bleachers!

Random 5 Friday

Have a great weekend!

  1. Oh that is scary I never like to hear this.
    Arnel Pineda I have heard his story and yes it does make you cry he has an amazing voice I love it.
    I do hope your cold goes quickly back to where it came from.
    I love watching the bucks run but not from being chased:) Hug B

  6. There was a bomb threat in our little town yesterday which shut down the highway exit to our town. This is getting to be a regular thing. I was getting a haircut yesterday and the person next to me had a cold. I kept leaning away from her because I just knew I would catch it.

  11. So sorry about the bomb scare! That must have been scary and nerve-wracking. I hope your cold fades away quickly and doesn't get worse. Allergies have been troubling me, but they kind of ebb and flow. Have fun at the game tonight! Our home team plays their last regular season tonight, too. They have lost only 1 game and we have hope of a state championship this year!

  15. Keeping my fingers crossed about the game tonight. And, a bomb scare. I just don't know what to think about all these scares and killings and such going on in schools. Times certainly have changed.

  16. I love the line of that fence that makes two nice turns. And the relationship between the scarecrow and the bomb threat is also remarkable. What a post.

  17. You brought back memories for me today. We had a garden with scare crow fellows to protect our garden. However, it was not fenced in this manner.

  23. Great R5 - Wow that is scary about the bomb threat. So happy no one was hurt.
    Love seeing Deer and a buck is even better.
    Football ...I miss the days when we'd all go watch the HS football games. Don't go much anymore as no one wants to go out in the cold now that we've gotten older.
    Hope you get over the cold soon.
