Morning Smile

My dad was a Blue Eagle. A proud Atenean who started the fraternity Aquila Legis along with his fellow law classmates.

Yesterday, as I drove to school, I saw a bald eagle as I drove over the bridge. That was my morning smile.
I also had a morning chuckle because I also saw a hawk sitting atop the roof of a car parked by the side of the road. It was an unusual sight. I wonder...
