Cats teach humans everything they want their human to know.

Most of this state is beautiful, once you get out of the population areas where the real people live. : )

Wouldn’t my kitties love for me to keep a drawer open..LOL..I closed one into a large drawer years ago..took me forever to find out where the mewing was comng from..Learned my lesson!
I thought I had finally taught my adult not to bolt out the door..by giving her elaborate praise and pets when I come back in the sliding door...I tempted her too far by leaving a gap in the door while I shook a rug..The turkey was on the patio and out she went this week..
She and the turkey had no interaction at all like they do through the glass door..Silky will let me pick her up and bring her in after a bit of patio exploring, luckily.
She taught me another lesson..

I have that Jukebox in my files....and I forget it because when I start playing it, I can’t stop. I love the old songs even though some of them make me blue! So many memories!

I played yours a few minute though and about couldn’t let it go!

The Way Through the Woods
 
  They shut the road through the woods
Seventy years ago.
Weather and rain have undone it again,
And now you would never know
There was once a road through the woods
Before they planted the trees.
It is underneath the coppice and heath,
And the thin anemones.
Only the keeper sees
That, where the ring-dove broods,
And the badgers roll at ease,
There was once a road through the woods.

Yet, if you enter the woods
Of a summer evening late,
When the night-air cools on the trout-ringed pools
Where the otter whistles his mate.
(They fear not men in the woods,
Because they see so few)
You will hear the beat of a horse's feet,
And the swish of a skirt in the dew,
Steadily cantering through
The misty solitudes,
As though they perfectly knew
The old lost road through the woods. . . .
But there is no road through the woods.

Rudyard Kipling

I think that is true of many states..Freeways and driving through cities on them give you so little of what the state has to offer .
Some of my pictures are from old estates that have been turned into public parks.

I love cranberries, cashews, Jukeboxes, and I love my camera...LOL! My camera has taken some bad pictures for me lately though. And man, is it a battery eater! Maybe when the batteries get low, it doesn’t work as well. I know very little about cameras.

Your Celebrations are terrific today!
