Hi everybody!

It’s Joe from JoeBites. I know it’s been awhile (college and adult life has kind of kept me busy). But, I wanted to make a shout out to Explore.org if you don’t know about it. It has a lot of live animal cams from all over the world, educational information and workshops. You may have heard of the run-away sensation of the Fat Bear contest that Explore has been holding for quite awhile. This year, however a lot of media picked up on it (kudos to the PR teams!). Fat Bear happens when all the bears come out of hibernation, and start fishing at the rivers. Everyone worldwide votes on who puts on the most pounds for the upcoming hibernation. It’s a great site to check out…you become addicted to checking out the cams! Stay well, everyone!

I’ve Missed This!

I visited the Fort Worth Zoo a few weeks ago. I have not been there since Joe was young. He and I regularly visited this zoo, so it was fun to walk through it and see what has changed and what has not. I reminisced a lot, especially when I saw a young, blond curly-headed kiddo walk past me!

Still at it!

Boogie Down at the Buffalo Boogie!

Leave a comment

Every year the Fort Worth Nature Center & Refuge hold a 5k and 1-mile called the Buffalo Boogie. The proceeds from this run goes toward the maintenance and care of the bison herd that lives at the FWNC&R. It’s a good cause and even if you do not participate you should go check it out. BTW — you and your dog can enter and I’m pretty sure I am going to bring mine. Mark your calendars now!

Catching Up…and Frylock

Leave a comment

Hi everyone,

I’m sorry I have not been blogging. No one told me how busy junior year in high school really is!

Here’s the most important news — we have a new puppy. Well, we actually got him last October but I have not posted like I should. He has really grown since we got him at the Humane Society. We were told he is part border collie, part blue heeler. I named him “Frylock” after a cartoon character in “Aqua Team Hunger Force.” We call him “Fry” for short — also a cartoon character in “Futurama.”

Fry can’t have a nylon or leather leash. He bites through them. He’s a happy pup!

Bigfoot — is it a primate, or something else?

Leave a comment

A lot of people who have studied Bigfoot, or “Sasquatch” believe that it has a lot of primate attributes to it. This includes the teeth, hands and opposable thumbs that are found on primates. Some people, though, say that Bigfoot is capable of some type of language — so maybe it is a primitive human. Still others think Bigfoot is a spiritual being, an alien, a shapeshifter or a hoax.

 

What do you think?

Frances told me the sunflowers grew from the seeds that feel out of the feeder.
