Gidgette’s Gotcha Day
Today is the 10th anniversary of Gidgette’s Gotcha Day. She’s the love of my life. Right now, she snuggled up next to me washing her face like the good little kitty she is.
The First Harvest
My one pot of lettuce was overflowing, so I decided to pull it today. I wish I had taken a picture before I harvested it. It filled an entire colander. I had planned on making a salad plus some wilted lettuce. However, by the time I had cleaned it, there wasn’t much left. Plus it…
Be Sure to Hug Your Kat
Today is International Hug Your Cat Day! I actually got to give Ivory a hug today. She almost never lets me pick her up. Of course, she demanded treats for tolerating me. Gidgette cuddled with me this morning while I was doing the rounds of the interwebs. I didn’t see the kousins today. I will…
Weird Kat Sleeping Position
Gidgette is weird. I caught her sleeping under the pillow. She was nothing but ears and a tail.
Purple
My favorite color is purple. I have my own psychological/color theory why this is. But that’s neither here nor there. Flowers are a bloomin’. I found some incredible purple wildflowers in the park. If anyone knows what they are, leave me a comment. These are a tree. I think they’re pretty common flowering trees. We…
Christmas in the Time of COVID?
I’m at the Bedford Reservation of the Cleveland MetroParks right now. I’m actually just across from Tinker’s Creek Gorge Overlook. I just had to stop and post pictures of this tree I just stumbled across. Somebody hung two Christmas ornaments on a scrawny little pine tree. It’s Charlie Brown’s Christmas Tree. It really cheered me…
The End of Winter?
Really Old Man Winter? You just won’t go away. Record cold is hitting North America. It snowed in Cleveland, though not as bad as other places like the northeast. Frost possible in the southeast. I even learned a new weather term, graupel. Today’s forecast high in Cleveland is 48. Average high for today is 68. …
Nature Up Close
Chilaxing
Ivory, a roughly six pound cat, has made a huge divot in one of the cushion making up the back of the couch. But the way I found her hanging out the other day is just hysterical. She was sitting, but stretched out just like a human. I could only laugh.
Spring is Springing?
The calendar says it’s April. Obviously old man winter forget to look at the date. This was my backyard yesterday morning. I actually took a look outside around 6:00 AM and there was more snow than this picture shows. There was a good couple inches of snow. Of course, it all melted by afternoon. There’s…
