Art, some cat pics, maybe something irreverent now and then. What's the deal with the stuffed turtle? And why does my profile pic look like a Neanderthal?

The wisteria plant growing by the pergola greets everyone who comes to the house. I had to cut it back last year in order to stain the pergola. It hasn't grown much since, but it is loaded with blooms.
