The weather forecasters were predicting rain yesterday. My cousin Rob and I had planned for a 30 mile bike ride in the early morning. We decided to go ahead with our plan. Well, it rained 8/10ths of an inch around 3 in the morning, but by 7 am we were off on what turned out to be a totally rain free ride. Lesson learned, don't put your life on hold because of a weather forecast. (editor's confession; we both had rain gear packed just in case).
Later in the afternoon I took out my camera to snap pictures of some tall grass we have growing in the front yard when, no sooner than I had my camera out, a Red-tailed hawk flew right by me and into our back yard. I switched lenses and was able to capture a couple of action shots. Lesson learned, be prepared to change plans. Often things can go even better than expected, but we need to be willing to adapt to the change.
