It's Feline Friday! 11-28-2014

We love Lucy!!!

Some of you might have wondered how we came up

with the name of Lucy for our rescue stray kitty.....

Well.....she's actually named after one of

our favorite TV stars of the 1950's!

And here's the link to the top 10 Episodes for your enjoyment! 

And for heavens sake don't forget to thank

Steve of BFDude for Feline Friday! Cheers!

Six Words and Sunday Shadows....November 22-23, 2014

Our wild turkeys have no fear

However this bird will be dinner

While vacationing in Mexico we rode a little

bus with a family and their Christmas dinner.

This wild bird is a Cachalaca. They are taking

it home to feed it corn, bread and bananas

until Christmas eve.  I felt sorry for it, however

there's really no difference to our Thanksgiving Turkey 

or a traditional English Christmas Goose. Other than

this family truly knows where their dinner comes from.

Here's more INFO about this bird.

And here are the links to Six Words

and Sunday Shadow Shots

Have a Happy Thanksgiving!

It's Awww Monday November 17, 2014

On our last day at the Catalina 

in Zihuatanejo we were joined 

for breakfast by the three resident cats....

Later on while having a snack before 

leaving for the airport one of the sisters

came by for a personal visit. 

Usually the other two don't let her get close

to us....but they weren't there.

So she got oodles of skritches

and she was quite happy.

Til we got up to go.....

Here she is as we said goodbye...

I really wanted to tuck her under my arm 

and bring her home with us....but 

you know who ( Lucy ) would have been furious.

Her little face was so sad....made me sad too.

I hate goodbyes....

It's Feline Friday Plus a Visit to La Barra! November 14, 2014

Here's Lola- in her favorite dining room chair!

On our way to Barra La Potosi- our annual

"Field trip". This time our transportation

had a vast improvement. We got to the bus station

and the nine of us got to ride in a comfy new van!

Complete with on demand AC!

Here's Russell, Bob, Judy and John.... 

Ted's at the head of the table....

Ron, Jeff and Chris 

and our waiter in the background...

This was our view!

Men watching food being prepared...

La Senora cooking tasty dishes!

Russell had Guacamole 

( for our missing buddies Wynn and Roberto)

And I had Avocados stuffed with shrimp...

Some of us had very good Marguerita's

and you can spot a few cervezas in the background...

Earlier this fall a hurricane did an enormous amount

of damage to this little place. They lost considerable

beachfront and are just beginning to rebuild.

We had a very enjoyable day.

Our van driver returned to pick us up right at 2:30pm

and took us all the way to our hotel! Woo hoo!

A perfect sunset for our perfect day!
