Musings on cats, travel, gardens and life
Today was fresh and green, just like the new year, and I was called into the garden. The cats joined me for a while, Tiger content to inspect and meander, Benji, escaping under the fence. I filled the wheelbarrow with winter debris, then looked… Continue Reading “Happy New Year from the Cats and the Birds!”
About this time every year I sign off from the blog for a week or so. Somewhat begrudgingly as I really do enjoy blogging. But for me – and perhaps you – a break is in order, while I refuel before heading into a… Continue Reading “Till Next Year – Parting Shots of the Boys”
