Crazy Bird Lady

This summer I started with some flowers on the balcony, then a table with a bird bath, then a hummingbird feeder (the hummingbird didn't show immediately) SO a suet feeder, then I started to enjoy the little visitors, so I've expanded, repeatedly...

I currently have 5 feeders hanging... 2 have been retired for the moment. Along with the bird bath (they were never in it & it just got gross regularly)

I now have had 9 varieties of birds (that I know of) along with a couple of squirrels & a chipmunk.
I'm pretty proud, considering I live in a condo off a busy street.

Below are some of my favorite pictures...

Black Spire Outpost on Batuu

So- I was invited to Cast Preview at Hollywood Studios...
1) I loved it
2) It is literally picture perfect- I believe it was created with social media in mind
3) The ride is awesome & each ride experience is different
4) It’s HOT, go when the weather is cooler
5) Make sure you get a reservation for the cantina- you don’t want to miss it
6) Try the colored popcorn- it’s fun
7) Have fun!!! I did 😜

Great trip to Starved Rock- I suggest avoiding the visitor center- stop by the lodge grab a map & head to the farthest parking lot. Wander around, listen for the waterfall & enjoy the adventure!

Uber excited about my next big adventure- it’ll be a quick trip, but it’s exploring a new world! I’ll explain when I can...

Cirque du Soleil

This month I saw my 11th different Cirque du Soleil show.

I still love them! They still surprise me and amaze me...

First show, Delirium in 2007
Last show this month- Volta
In between- in no order:
Crystal
Luzia
Toruk
Kurios
Ovo
O
The Beatles - Love
Zumanity
La Nouba

I’ve seen a few twice...

My all time favorite- Love
Close runner up- Kurios
Least favorite- Toruk, but only because The United Center was a bad venue for Cirque

I just saw they have a new Christmas show...
Already looking forward to seeing another!
