Welcome to week six! And happy 6 week anniversary to me and my project.
Last Sunday’s pic is a carry-over this week from our trip to Chicago, so if you looked at my Chicago set on Flickr you’ve probably already seen it. I actually decided change my format and have my weeks be from Monday to Sunday since some of the weekend photos go together. So, this week’s photos go from last Sunday, Feb. 3 to yesterday, which was Sunday, Feb. 10. Next week’s first photo will be Monday, and I will keep that format from now on.
As many of you know, Iowa City received 10 inches of snow on Wednesday which made the raptor center quite lovely. I took lots of photos that day but figured you’ve all seen snow before – you probably have not, however, seen a peregrine falcon basking in the glow of her heat lamp. If you would like to see the rest of the photos I took at the raptor center on Thursday, go to my Flickr “winter” set.
Saturday’s photo breaks the rules a little bit, but it’s my blog so I can do what I want. The photo is obviously not recent nor one I took myself. It’s my favorite photo of me and our family dog Cody, who passed away on Saturday, Feb. 9 at the age of 17. He would have been 18 years old on March 1. Rest in peace, Budaboo. And kudos for being the oldest and bestest dog I’ve ever known!
As always, if you have questions, comments, or criticisms about any of the photos, please email me or leave a comment. See you next week!

You know your Dad will be pissed about the bike photo!
I love last Sunday’s pic. It makes me want to snuggle up in bed right now.
3 cheers for Cody’s life! You were the first dog that didn’t scare the crap out of me.
