blog balzer on google: A squirrel's life varies from day to day. From the simple carefree to the dangerous hair raising . My life is " charmed ". The fickle finger of fate reached out to me at birth . Been " lucky" ever since. Great , if somewhat " noisy " or " stealthy " friends, + a great Ma and Dad. Observations of life just seem to come my way. Join me, won't you. i am getting older and grayer . Peanut .
