One of our family’s favorite activities when we take trips into town is counting eagles. It isn’t unusual for us to see as many as six Bald Eagles [1] on each drive to town–usually for church and home school meetings. And right here at the Rawles Ranch [2], we regularly see two or three Bald Eagles a day, cruising down The Unnamed River. When I’m out doing chores and I see one flying over, I take off my hat and reflect for a moment. I guess I’m just overly patriotic. I do thank God for all our blessings. And living in a place like this is one of them.
