It’s an amazing thing to see…
(I have one of those in my photo album too)

😂 No, it’s just what you get when you let kids name their own pets…
He’s named after the “Night Fury” Dragon in the “How to Train Your Dragon” movies.

I was not a cat person either. But I have continually had cats adopt me for the last 30 years… so I guess that makes me a cat person.
It all started when I agreed to let my roommate be a SPCA Foster mom… she adopted the litter (2) and somehow I ended up with the for the next 17 years!

But the crawled away from her and she couldn’t bring them back.
About 3 days after they were born, she came out to me frantically crying and lead me to the box… we tore it open and found all the dead kittens and Velcro. So in the house (in my box) they came.

😂 That’s his baby… Velcro was a sole survivor of a litter that his mother (Li’l) made a very poor birthing location decision. So he was raised in the house from 3 days old
He has never learned how to retract his claws… so he sticks to EVERYTHING! 😂
He’s a monster, but we all adore him…

I don’t know what that is.. I’ll probably just put her canned cat food bowl in the cat carrier and take her to the vet.
She lets me handle her while she’s eating.
She is a scaredy cat, but gentle.
Unlike her brother, Velcro, who is a lovable demon.

Hi Pekka! 😊
Thank you… (there is a new crew of barn kittens waiting to be tamed once I’ve gotten these two to trust me.😬)
I have a lovely day!💖

Such a wonderful thread Kris! Thank you!
When we were at Pt Reyes a few weeks ago the Pelicans were everywhere!! It was spectacular! They are so amazing to watch.
There was a carcass on the beach… I never knew about the “tooth” at the end of their beak…

It’s a beautiful day… warmer than expected for November 1st.
Ranger was taking advantage of the shade of my shadow towards the end of our walk… 🥰🐶

Thank you Jean!
Do you get many trick-or-treaters in your neighborhood?
We don’t get any… so we are heading to my Brother-in-law’s house because they REALLY get into it!

Doh! Forgot the screenshot

Good morning Scott!😊🙋‍♀️ Oooh! Oooh! 🙋‍♀️
I have some fun Seagull pictures from our Pt. Reyes visit…
A few adult gulls were watching over a large group of juveniles, and they paid no mind to us at all!

Oh, heck, NO!! 😳
I used to do indoor climbing at Mission Cliffs in San Francisco…
I finally went out to Pinnacles National Park to climb outside.
NOPE! I cussed like a sailor the entire way up the cliff. 🧗‍♀️ 🤬🤬🤬🤬
😱My Acrophobia was not to be denied. 😱

Ironically, yes! 🤪
We headed out to see a waterfall and just kept going… my phone clocked 9.6 miles and 116 “flights of stairs” at the end of the day! 🤯

Good Morning Scott!
I love the depth of this secret passage… 😉
I don’t have any mossy rocks to share, but here’s a mossy tree we saw on our hike up Mt. Tamalpais a couple of weeks ago…

Yes, we have two “house” cats right now… but for us a house cat is indoor/outdoor. Since we moved to the country we’ve never had a strictly indoor cat.
When I lived in San Francisco I had two… Frankie & Ashley

Happy Caturday!🐈‍⬛🧡
Another favorite from the archives… my most photogenic barn kitten rescue, Minnie, really getting into the Halloween spirit!
October 25, 2025 at 5:35 PM
Good Morning Friends!
I went digging through my archives yesterday and saw photo of a carved pumpkin I took at a flower show… and thought you’d enjoy it!
Have a lovely day…

Same, but it was an empty country road and I wasn’t in a hurry…

Every once in a long while we will get an overnight freeze… to protect their trees the farmers will turn on the sprinklers… if the next morning is sunny, the result is magical!
I never have time to stop and really capture it properly.
October 24, 2025 at 12:03 AM
Indeed it is! I’m just heading out to face the “real world”… I’m looking forward to seeing your adventures again… 😊
Cheers!☕️

My goodness how time is flying by! ☕️🍂🍁
My morning Bluesky time is coming to an end… so I’ll leave you with a little autumn cheer… my favorite little tree all dressed up!
