Rest up this weekend if you don’t have plans. There will be more to do later.
Two fluffy Ragdoll cats, one blue pointed and yawning widely and the other seal mitted with his eyes closed, occupy a pair of velvet cushions. One is blending into the other in a nimbus of floof.

Good morning from our fluffy little magicat!
A Ragdoll cat, having fluffy white fur that turns to grey at its paws and snout, sits on a windowsill and yawns widely in the morning sun. The same cat now gazes through the window screen into the backyard. It is fluffy all over but especially around its cheeks and neck.

If you see this post, quote with a bridge from your gallery.

MY BRIDGE.
Sri Chinmoy Peace Bridge, Minneapolis/St. Paul, MN (left to right)
The Mississippi River Gorge as seen from beneath the eastern footing of the Sri Chinmoy Peace Bridge. A long concrete double arch spans the river, linking two banks lined with trees. The structure is reflected in the mirror-like river surface. Low-angle evening sunlight creates a golden glow within the structure of the bridge.

Deception Pass in early fall, viewed from the high bridge spanning the channel. The green railing of the early 20th-century bridge is in the foreground and the sheltered channel far below is peppered with small fishing vessels. Full sun and blue sky overhead, with thin white clouds.

The hiking trail bridge at Sol Duc Falls in Olympic National Park. A small steep-sided canyon covered with moss, with the falls in the foreground. Lush undergrowth and tall trees all around. The Sol Duc River flows away from the viewer, clear as emerald.

Here Gandalf demonstrates how to conceal his face behind his own floof - which, by the laws of if I can’t see you then you can’t see me, renders him invisible to prey.
