What’s an eagle?

February 13, 2023

Guinness here today…

So yesterday was a crazy day. The wind in Marsh Harbour was really bad and the waves had the boat bouncing all night. And there’s the beeping fridge that started up again. I don’t think any of us got a good night’s sleep. 

But in the afternoon, even though we were all tired, we went over to this big tent with really big screens. The guys kept talking about Eagles and Cheefs. Not sure what all the excitement was about but Lynn and Rod seemed really interested. I mostly just walked around saying hi to people. 

Then, as it was getting dark, everyone got really excited and ordered beer and food. Thee were special foods for today – nachos, pizza, ribs (love them bones), chicken wings. It smelled so good and I went from table to table pleading for treats so I had to be put on a leash. 

Once in a while, something exciting happened and Rod put on this funny green hat with a bird on the front that screamed and moved its wings. He would yell E-A-G-L-E-S…Eagles!.  Then sometimes other people in the room started clapping and Rod and Lynn didn’t look so happy. 

It was getting late and everyone seemed nervous. Rod even tried to put the funny green hat on me for “good luck”, but I guess it didn’t work because they looked very sad on the way back to the boat. 

This is humiliating – and not my good side!

Will someone please explain to me what an Eagle is and why people like them so much but make them so sad. They kept saying “maybe next year”, but that’s seven years away for me!

Love

PS: Oh, and I forgot, at one time there was a lady flying around and singing in a red dress. . Is that an Eagle?
