having trouble with line number two

Hi Tman.  I'll probably be gone when you get back so see you tomorrow.

Hi SueW, now time for some animal action in the moonlight

Okay, we're off to a good start with ALF's lyrics and, unbeknownst to him, T-Man wrote line two in his post below - "Hope we get some good sightings tonight with the moon so bright".

Hello SueW and Howwa.

Hi Penny

Hi all. Ep is down AGAIN for me

Hi Penny! And Roger, too!

Hello Penny, Sue, Barry, Howwa and anyone else lurking in the background!

Hi Morris and goodnight all.  Bed is calling. I hope EP comes back soon and that the animals decide to come and visit tonight.  NK looks lovely in the moonlight.

Good evening everyone.  Although you may have seen my name on the list, I have usually been watching the cams lately and have not been looking at the forum very often.

As many of you may know, my second cousin, Corporal Tyler Crooks was kiled in Afghanistan two weeks ago.  He was brought back to Canada on March 23rd and finally returned home to his home town of Port Colborne on March 28th.  His funeral was this past Thursday.  It was a military funeral and, needless to say, quite emotional.  The only good thing about it was that I got to see two of my cousins, his aunts, whom I hadn't seen in several years.  One of them had just had a baby boy on March 6th.  His middle name was that of his deceased grandfather and he now has Tyler's name as well.

The watering hole looks wonderful tonight even though the full moon isn't until next week.  We definitely need a kitty - or two.

Greetings everyone. Mavis, he looks like a Mapogo and they were in the area then. This was part of the report from Ernst the day before.

"We went to the dam this morning and found the Nkuhuma lions, 6 females and several youngsters, on the buffalo. Another vehicle saw the 7 Styx and a male very close to the area but heading south away from the area and the male from the Nkuhuma pride was chasing them and then returned to the Buff.

At the same time other guides in the area picked up on 3 of the Mapogo males on the area just west close to Djuma bush lodge heading towards us. When we closed down for the morning they were sleeping close to the back of the lodge."

Hi Rosa - again, my condolances on the loss of your cousin.  It is unfortunate that funerals are often the only times that you get to see some relatives from out of town.  It is good that your cousin has honoured Tyler by naming her child after him.  Glad you decided to join us at the waterhole again.
