Random Pictures Friday



Georgia: Well, once again it is Friday.
We are happy but mum is happier as she has 2 days
to spend with us!
This past week mum saw lots of interesting things 
and we are sharing them with you.

This is a picture of a female cardinal.
Mum does not often see this bird as she is
away from home working.
Mum was happy to see her visiting though


Mum was looking out the kitchen window one day and saw this snail!
No, she did not bring it in for us to sample.


This is a Burning bush.
In the Fall when days grow shorter, the the leaves start to turn  a
bright red. In other words,it "burns"


Last week, many people were affected by Hurricane Matthew.
He still had enough energy to make it us to Nova Scotia!
On Monday he blew across our province.
While the farthest east part,known as Cape Breton, got the worst
with severe flooding and damage to roads and property,
we got high wind and rain.
The wind broke this big branch.


As the branch fell, it hit this window and broke it!
The window has double panes and only the outside pane broke.
Mum will have to fix it before Winter.


On her way to work Thursday, mum saw this cat
trying to figure out how to get that pigeon.
We think that all he could do was watch wistfully.


We should be getting a sunny weekend
 and we are looking forward to doing more of this.
It is not often that you get to see 3 of us in one picture.
here I am with Julie and JJ.
Treasure was sleeping somewhere else.


We are looking forward to a fun weekend again.
WE purr that all of you also have a 
FUN weekend!

Monday Musings with Georgia



Georgia: Treasure and I enjoyed lots of snoozing this past weekend.


So did JJ.
Mum was bust all weekend. On Sunday she went out with 
Aunti  and Uncle Bean to help them celebrate their
wedding anniversary.


They went for a long drive, had lunch and saw a
pretty strange cat.
They saw lots of things and we will let mum show you 
what she saw later this week.
We think this cat is pretty cool.


Julie had some fun too.


What is she playing with?

Pop over and see her at House Panthers!

Finally Friday with Georgia


Georgia: Well friends, another Friday is here and that means
another weekend where Mom will abandon us.
We will not complain too hard as she is leaving us  for a 
good cause. She is attending a fundraiser for a relative whose
12 year old daughter has  Cerebral Palsy.
 The funds raised will go towards a chair lift for the family van.
When they go away tomorrow,I plan to do some relaxing.
Kinda like I am today.


The sunshine on my furs  is so nice. 


I just want to sit here and soak it all up!!!!


Tillie and JJ were loving the sunbeams too!


Tillie really likes that her furs are warm and shiny in
the sun.


Treasure  thinks the porch is a pawsome place to snooze.


Julie and tiger were in the kitchen hoping to get treats.
They were not successful, but did get Mom to agree
to some for all of us at bedtime!


Mom, her sister and BIL do some interesting things when they go 
out and about. One day they went to a museum called 
while they were there, they saw this little kitty.


Mom just had to pat this cat. We could tell because we could
smell it on her!


 Mom also saw this critter. It is called a sheep.
Mom said the wool coat had been sheared off,kinda
like we see on some kitties. She was quite
friendly too.


 This little one in her baby. Baby was more interested in food 
than pats from people. We think baby is smart!


We purr you all have a pawsome  and fun weekend !!

Monday Musings with Georgia


Hi there! Did you all have a good weekend? I did.
 Saturday was very windy and then it poured at night.
It was pretty warm though.
It was sunny and warm on the porch Sunday, yay!
I want to show you some pics Mom took earlier this month.
It was  October 8 and Mom was in the kitchen when she looked
out the window and saw dragonflies!


Come on, I'll show you.


Mom took these pics through the kitchen window. 
She saw 4 dragonflies at once! They were quite colourful.


Their wings are transparent.


The wings are also iridescent! Can you see them sparkle ?
I bet they would have been fun to play with, but I am not 
allowed outdoors. Darn.


How about seeing what Tillie and Julie are up to at
House Panthers !

What Mom Saw


Hi! Georgia again. On Monday, I said that Mom would share
some pictures she took on Saturday when it was really foggy.
Most are interesting for your beans, but I think you kitties 
 and woofies will like the last ones ;)


This is a pilot ship in Halifax harbour.It is backing out from the dock.
Maybe it is going in search of the sun!


 These old buildings are fading away in the fog. The building with 
the spire is called The Khyber . It was built in 1888 as
The Church of England Institute.After many tenants over the years,
 it is now a multipurpose art centre.


  Mom,her sister and her sister's hubby(B-I-L) then went  to the 
Halterm Container Terminal. They recently finished  a new dock
that can handle very BIG ships (  post-Panamax). You can see
how BIG the cranes are. The crane is next to a trailer from an 
18 wheeler. As the port was quiet this day Mom said  the crane 
was filled  with hundreds of birds and they were very loud!
She didn't even bring some home!!


 Here is Mom's b-i-l posing with the crane to  give some scale.
It is almost fading into the fog! On the right of the picture
you can see some big  rocks, and beyond the rocks is the harbour!


 The best part of Mom's trip was this big bird. It is a 
heron and it was fishing for dinner as it was about 6:30 PM
when Mom took this picture.


Mom said he was 3 times as big as me!!
Still, she could have brought it home...right?


I hope you enjoyed the foggy pictures. It is sunny today,
but the rain will be back tomorrow.
Well, I think I will go have a nap and dream about big birds!

We are happy about that because Mom was busy this week.
She was doing stuff  around the house and not helping
us visit much. Then, one day, Mom and her sister went 
out to do some shopping.Then, they went to meet Mom's 
sister's hubby near his work as he had an after work meeting.
Did they come home ? NO!!!!!
Not for a bazillion hours!!!!!!!
They did some picture taking!!
It was very dark when Mom finally came home  
to give us our dinner. It was 10:30 PM!!!!!
We will be having a talk with Mom this weekend!

Mom and her sister were taking more pics of the 
construction hear Mom's brother -in - law's work.
The big crane is up and working.


Progress is being made.


They went up to the top floor of  B-I-L's* work
which is 4 floors, and looked down and took more pics!
Did they then head home...NO!


They took pics of the sunset,

after the sunset,

and in the dark!! They played with their camera settings 
to see  what they could get when it was really dark!

See how dark it is!



Later when looking at the pics, 
Mom discovered a very silly thing!! 
I will tell you about it  soon. Mom
was a little embarrassed at what she did.
We bet she will be doing a bit more
camera manual reading this weekend,haha
In between giving us scritches!!!!!!
Have a fun,fun weekend !!

Purrs, Tillie
