Thank you, Dita.
Only these two are kittens..the rest are adults. It got interesting when they all first got here as pecking order adjustments were made.. Luckily these are adult cats I know and love..so it was like a reunion.
The last of my three hummingbird feeders was destroyed last week..It was time for them to go anyway..I will miss them but plan on getting raccoon proof hangers for next year. It was the younger raccoon that did the deed..My others have never bothered my feeders.
The raccoons and a tom turkey helped entertain the cats ..Kittens are too busy to stop and stare for long.

I’ve never done them so I will go by Office Max next week. I have an ink jet so that should work fine.

Sounds like fun.

How about “Piper gets my vote!” (too many words?) or
“I’d vote for Piper.”

**Let’s have tea there**

Sounds great!

Yes, I do live in a beautiful area, and you’re right—that’s exactly why the tourists come. At least they used to go home in the winter—now they stay all the time! LOL The last couple of days have been pretty close to perfect. Blue skies, nice temps, no humidity. We’ve actually had a fall this year for the first time in a long time.

Raccoons are high entertainment. I know from your stories, and guess what?! There is a resident rampaging rascally raccoon in the neighborhood to which I moved. She is a big mama... I saw her once... maybe 15-20 pounds. She dunked one of my towels in the pool twice and finally got the clog shoe that she coveted, ripped out the insole, and sent it to a watery death...:o) She has a lot of fun in our back yard, and even though I am usually a light sleeper, I can never catch her at it. Haha. The neighbors say she has at least one baby, seen about 2-1/2 months ago. She will probably teach them these tricks too.

How are you today? How are your toes? Booboo is doing great, thanks! :) That's funny how our weather is opposite again. It will be chilly tonight.

Toe still hurts a lot. Someone told me to tape it to the next toe; will do.... been getting advice through FRmail:o).

HUGZ allaround to the GBU family. Any chance you all can see the final presidential debate in person? I just saw it will be in your “neck of the woods.”

We are having cool nights and warm days..plenty of blue skies..Only my pink dogwood has my area looking like fall at all, though.
Last year we had good fall color for Central Texas in November..some years it’s very hard to find real autumn foliage here.

yeah, usually it’s too warm here and the leaves just go from dusty green to olive to gradually gone. The yellow daisies—not black eyed susan’s—are going nuts and the wild grasses are too. Goldenrod, etc.

My favorite came last night..first visit in a while.

"Maybe you could do something with “Pistol Packin’ Palin"

VP Cheney went quail hunting and shot a lawyer.
VP Candidate Palin is a higher caliber shooter ... with better aim.

And that's all I have to say about that.

LOL..I used to pick wildflowers with my grandsons at my mother’s. There were ditches and fields nearby that were terrific in the spring.
So many are illegal to pick nowadays!
