They know it’s fall. They are like magnets to our laps as soon as we sit down. I’m officially converted out of cat haterdom: I picked out this groovy new cat toy. It’s a scratchy thing and has a catnip ball under the sisal scratchy part. It apparently also is a napping device, even though some of the nappers are too big to fit.
The owner of the ears in the shadow to the left is currently comfortably asleep in my lap.
So when the behemoth is too big or busy frying other fish to acknowledge the little ones, the little ones find another way. Robert even includes a link to see if it’s been picked up by the eye in the sky.
Today’s entry is Betty! I met Larry last summer at a conference. We hit it off that day, and have stayed in touch. This is a very cool project he is doing. He originally started to get better at his drawing skills, and since he loves dogs, it seemed the perfect combo. I think he does a great job at capturing each one’s individual personality. He says he’s met a lot of cool people, too.
Some shots from Niagra Falls last July. I’m ridiculously excited on the phone with lle. Sitting next to me is a colleague who trained in Toronto with me.
Overhead view of camels in the desert. The black camels are shadows cast by the sun at an angle. Photo by George Steinmetz. He has some really spectacular images from remote corners of this blue marble.
We laugh everytime we walk by these flowers while taking the pooches out. They look like the original plan was scrapped halfway through or something. It reminds me of guys who are losing their hair. This picture from the side is funny, too. This is probably the last bloom we’ll see this year - part of the leaves have already started drying up. Fall’s definitely on the way.
Bob Marley Commemorative coin, issued by Jamaica. Deeg it, Mon. From pennylicious a nifty blog about money. Money itself, not stock markets, investments and number crunching boringness. Coins. And paper money. Cool stories and history - I like the one about JSG Boggs, who drew a fake dollar on a bar napkin and the bartender liked it so much he said he could pay his tab with it.
