More of the litter

Sandy holds three more of the new arrivals which are large enough they walked out of their house into the large perennial flowers that are there.

New Arrivals


Jake is holding these new arrivals; there are 9 in all. Some will have to go. Anybody need a kitty?
Most are gray or black, one or two are black with some colour.

Candle at Kate and Dave's wedding


Two of each of these candles were on the tables at Kate and Dave's wedding--about 15 people per table--maybe 20 tables, we were number 14 I think.
Anyway probably close to 300 people there.
My camera battery died after 3 pictures, but I hope to get a picture from Harriet.

That deck picture posted below was taken 2 years ago.

old deck


For anyone following our blogspot a few weeks ago and saw the new deck--this is the old one before removal!
It was rotten by the top step, and had several plywood patches on top of the deck and numerous repairs to various boards on the deck as well. Part of railings were also rotted off.

You should not suffer the past. You should be able to wear it like a loose garment, take it off and let it drop.
