"Dagnabbit, says Lucy
I want that rabbit!"

Once again foiled by closed doors,
Lucy can only watch the wildlife!

Hot and cold


Summer night
Feel the radiant heat of the street
While music beats !




Winter closes in
Wind swirls and roars - daring you
To get out

Have a great week!

Magpie #180 Nothing Up My Sleeve

Drawing Hands, 1948 by M. C. Escher 

Sleight of hand-
Nothing up my sleeve-
One hand doesn't know what the other is doing
What is real
Draw some lines-
Hard to say what truths you are viewing

Feline Friday What Lucy Saw From the Deck!!


Lucy is quite intent on what she saw below the deck.... 


 One baby deer...


Wait there's more...
Two fawns and their mom!!! 
It's so fun to watch them.
Lucy is fascinated.
~~~~~~~~~~

Our buddy Steve of Burnt Food Dude started this meme
 because he wanted everyone to know that he doesn't hate cats.
 We're still not convinced that he loves cats, 
but we'll give him the benefit of the doubt.

One thing for sure is this is a fun and easy meme to do. 
So come and join us in Feline Friday.
