Sundog - Sun Halo - Solar Halo in Olney, Illinois

Due to our work schedules, we had our Thanksgiving dinner with friends last night (Friday night, November 24th, 2023). I had never seen anything quite like this sundog / halo display that we witnessed just as everyone was arriving at our place. I’ll never forget it.  

 

Crawdad Castles

After hearing the first of frogs this year a couple of days ago, last night 3 owls flew across the road in front of me and today we have new crawdad castles popping up in the yard. The critters say that spring is just around the corner.

Bowling Alley in Olney, Illinois

***

Because it’s off the beaten path, not quite on the main strip, & we never though to ask... we only just discovered this week that #OlneyIL actually has a #BowlingAlley. Not a tiny bowling alley - it’s actually a pretty good sized one - & totally retro. This one’s been here since 1975; the same family has been running one locally since the 1950’s.
