My sister asked me to go with her to see her daughter and go to the twins Spring concert.  I was so excited because I had never been to her daughter's house since she had moved up in the Northern part of Arkansas.

My sister's daughter was such a gracious host.  Had a wonderful dinner and a tour of her home, which is beautiful.  The school's musical was so good I even recommended it to my daughter Christy, who is a music teacher in East End.

We got up Wednesday morning and took our time coming back to our homes.  First we went and watched an Eagle's nest for a long time.   It was so far up in the tree that we had to use our special camera lens and hold the cameras so still.  The nest was built with lots of limbs and they were not small ones.  We felt like the nest was at least five to six feet wide and was  sitting in a fork of a very large tree.  The nest is close the to main road but the Eagle's don't mind because they continue  return to the nest.  People don't bother them either.  I am so glad we got this opportunity.

 

 As we  headed back to the car, my sister looked back and from that new angle we could see the Eagle.  It was worth the wait.  Trying to steady our camera's were an effort because we had been holding them up for so long.  It was so exciting to be rewarded for our patience.

 
 
We had lunch at a café in Clinton that was "Pay it Forward."  It was a lot of fun.  Each day the lunch is different and so we tried it.  Creamy Vegetable Casserole, Bell pepper corn bread.  I chose the pear pie and my sister had the Milky Way cake. We both enjoyed the meal.
 
 
We came back very tired but we had a great time.  As we were pulling into our town we were making plans to have another photography day. We always have one more place we want to go.
