Happy Thanksgiving, Canada!
Thankful for all my Canadian friends. Have a blessed day.

I was out at the ranch a couple of weeks ago to set up the deer feeder and the game camera. While I was there, I checked on the pond. As expected, the long dry spell we had this summer has taken it’s toll on the pond. It’s a shadow … Continue reading →
Cats: London, Halo, Sunnybud, Zoie Joy, and Paddy
No, we don’t have new kitties. We had lunch with their minions, Karen Rose Smith and her handsome husband yesterday. Sunnybud is their stray/feral — more stray than feral, who visits regularly for petting and Fancy Feast. Karen regularly posts about his antics on Facebook. Their indoor kitties, London, Zoie, … Continue reading →
Tech Stuff: Apple TV
One result of the Apple launch event was the revelation of the long anticipated Apple TV remake — or, as Apple calls it, the “future of television.” I’ve never paid much attention to Apple TV before, but I got into a discussion recently and learned a lot more about the … Continue reading →
Chocolate Field

The cats are spending time at their resort. I assigned roommates. Sneaky is the odd cat out, but she hasn’t had an opportunity to demonstrate who she gets along with. At the beginning of their stay, they are roomed as follows: Lady and Daphne; Rossie and Sapphire; Ajax and Ruby; … Continue reading →

Someone is always willing to help with laundry, if it isn’t changing the sheets on the bed, it’s keeping the sorted laundry from wandering off. As you can see, it’s exhausting work.

All the kitties are well. Lady is happy as long as she can sit or lay on a chair near us. Sapphire is growing like a weed, very playful, but she has little or no interest in letting us pick her up. She does watch out interaction with the other … Continue reading →
Tech Stuff: iPhone 6S (Plus)
Continuing my thoughts on Apple’s big launch event earlier this month, I’ll comment on the new iPhone. If you bought one last year, unless you’re just a tech hound, I don’t see anything compelling in the new iPhone. If you have an iPhone 4 or 5, this is certainly worth … Continue reading →
