Found this guy in the driveway today flat on his back. Thought he was dead at first but I saw him move a leg and open his mouth. Put him in a plastic dish with some water and he seems to be recovering a bit. Suspect a bird was trying to eat him and he got dropped.

A fantastic concert last night by Nightwish at Pop's. I missed them last year due to circumstances beyond my control but not this year! I've heard some criticism of Annette's ability to pull songs off live but she was outstanding. The band seemed to be having a good time. Glad to see a sizable crowd at Pop's. More Nightwish fans out there in St. Louis than I imagined.

Schneider Paint Company Fire

Just finished mowing the lawn when I noticed the fire just to the north of the subdivision.
