Don,
I’m truly honored to have met you. You have been a great FF friend. One special enough to “follow around”, learning every and any possible little pearl of wisdom about frog keeping. I am grateful to have shared any post with you. You listen and eagerly explain things in your answers to so many questions we have all asked. I thank you for this !

It's wonderful to get to know you a little better. Enjoy your milkshake !

Thanks Lynn, Faith, Jenna. I have been so busy lately with the new job that I iss so many posts here lately. Can't wait until I am done training and not putting in all the extra hours at the new place.

As for pics, I really have nothing new since I put tham all in my FF Albums.
I had no internet until this evening so I'll try and tke some new pics and post them here over the next week,


Oh did have some excitement last night when the Presidents helicopter landed next to my house :-) He wasn't on-board but it was cool to have a pile of escort helicopters all landing and security everywhere.

OK, time for some pics as promised:

Me, father in-law and my inherited brother


My granddaughter with an owl that was at a local sporting goods show. She showed no signs of fear or issues with the huge weight of that owl. She also got to handle some falcons that day.




Think she has some attitude?



Our father in-laws place (now in our name) in Puerto Rico



Some shots of the local beaches near our place in PR
(Click images to enlarge)



A favorite meal while in PR, octopus salad



Two rides I really wish I still had


And a great sign from the local watering hole

Nice to read all about you Don!
Beautiful Granddaughter, amazing PR photo's(wish I could be in one of those photos now!), and awesome choice in bikes!!!!
Like it was said before, thank you for serving our country!

[DonLisk]

Thanks Amanda.

Yeah, miss the bikes but glad to have slowed down some in my life. The granddaughter is awesome and keeps us pretty busy so the bikes changed into bicycles and scooters and RC cars and pets and oh the list never ends :-)

I'll admit....the Octopus salad threw me off! (Then again I don't eat any type of fish/seafood!)

Loved the pics! You have a gorgeous home, country and granddaughter - what great blessings And that sign made me LOL hard, I know quite a few people that would agree with that Thanks for sharing with us!
