Stray

We had a stray cat show  up at our house.  We had seen her lurking in the tree line and knew she had been eating the food we left out for our Lily kitty.  Well, today she came to me.   Lord, be still my aching heart.  She is so emaciated I couldn’t just leave her.

I am hoping to find a nice home for her…..that isn’t mine 😉

Settling In

Are you really going to take my picture again?  All I really want is to take a nap.

I need to get ready for my early afternoon nap.

Now I am all ready for some serious snoozing.

Bambino

Our neighbors rescue horses, clydesdale’s to be specific.  They then decided to breed them.  Their babies are so darned cute!  Someday I will have a more powerful lens to get a more close up picture.

Clean Up Crew

Some critter got run over in front of our driveway and the turkey vultures showed up to clean up the remains.

Being mindful that he doesn’t get run over.

Blooming Iris

Last fall my mother decided to tear out all of her iris bulbs….as in she no longer wanted any.  These bulbs are originally from my grandmother, so I couldn’t let them all get trashed.

I was excited to see that some yellow bloomed.

Taffy says hurry up because you smell so pretty when you are in full bloom.

 

Tuesday Morning Mystery

taffy-2

Taffy was very, very interested in something on the other side of the fence this morning.  She wouldn’t budge from this spot and kept barking and digging.  I went out to see what the fascination was, only to find absolutely nothing of interest.  Time went on and she kept carrying on, so I decided to take a closer look outside the fence.

I moved some leaves and fluff and found these little guys.  Some dumb bunny decided to nest right by the fence.  I covered them back up and tried to come up with a plan to keep the dogs from tunneling out of the yard.

This probably isn’t going to work, but it was the best I could come up with on the spur of the moment.  Now Taffy is pacing from one end of the tarp to the other.

George Thorogood

Last night was a girls night out which consisted of going to see George Thorogood at the Uptown Theater.  This is the second time I have seen him in concert and both times were fantastic.  He puts on quite a show.

Go Away

Sadie is a cutie, but I don’t think she was ready for her close-up.

New Lens

Glen got me a new camera lens for my birthday.  The weather has been too crappy to go outside and try it out.  So here is a picture of our cat, Lily.

A Note From Abroad

“Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn’t do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sailaway from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.” ~ Mark Twain
