Allow Me To Introduce…

Posted in Cats, This, that and the other at 20:00

…a couple of new friends I met today. (Click photos for more info)

First, this is Leah, who was happy to let me pet her as long as I wanted. (Ah, Leah…) She’s being cared for through First State Greyhound Rescue.

This sweet and lovely torbie goes by the name of Laura, and she’s being fostered through The Cat Shack.

Good Things: A garden ready to plant

Posted in Green and Growing, The Good things in life at 0:05

We cleaned up the previous year’s leftover plant stems and mulching fabric along with the new year’s weeds volunteers. The latter included some catnip, which we nearly had to fight our Good Cats to remove.

We picked up some free compost from the township yard waste recycling center, and then spread it over and worked it into the ground.

All we need now is another couple of sheets of mulching fabric to layer over it all, and Pat’s garden will be ready to plant for another year…

Good Things: Friday in the Park with Diana

Posted in The Good things in life at 0:05

A couple of Fridays ago, I took the afternoon off from work, and spent it instead with Pat and granddaughter Diana at a nearby park.

First we took a walk on the track, and Diana turned it into a sunny springtime dance around the park.

 
Later she played in the shade and sand, and…

 
…squeezed into the narrow opening between a couple of large stones.

 
We picked up some ice cream on the way home, and back at the house, Nana Pat washed off the stickiness and remaining sand the fun way, with the hose.
