Feline Friday September 14, 2018

 
I am sure I have posted this before,
but soon we will be taking a 3 week
vacation and Lucy will be staying in our
home with our good friends Chloe and Aaron.
She is used to them and has a good time
while we are gone, BUT she likes to make
us feel a little guilty by this behavior...
"What? You are packing and leaving me?"
Never fear Lucy...we'll be back!
Thanks Sandee for Feline Friday-
sorry this is a bit late.

Looking east towards Mt Shasta
 
I'm always up before dawn with Lucy
wanting to be fed and then she goes back
to sleep and I go outside to water the garden,
fill up the bird feeder and listen to the day begin.   
Last night it rained a bit and this morning
the birds were more active flying about
and I could hear the Canada geese honking
overhead. I think fall is just around the corner!

Hopefully we continue to have some rain.
Have a lovely day!

Early morning light with wildfire tones....
All of us want the fires gone 
and the soothing fall rains to begin.

The two deer realize that I am
watching them groom each other!
But the fawn in the background is ignoring me
as it's too busy eating delicious acorns!
