What a beautiful cat! Ragdoll, or perhaps Himalayan Persian. Beautiful!

The cats are growing up so fast. I am happy to see them sleeping with each other and hanging out together. They have settled in perfectly. Yay for you all!

Wow, that will be a big project to do and just in time for all the rainy days ahead.

Thankfully you didn't have pneumonia. I hope you feel better soon as I know you have a lot of work to do. Can you believe it is already time for the fire stove to be going? I too had to turn on my furnace

You have such a beautiful country. It is wonderful to see so much green space in the towns. I love seeing your tours.

That is a beautiful falls and very steep! You really got some great photos of it. ♥

It is always difficult to see how the world has changed and today's youth are so used to it that they are like frogs sitting in a boiling pot, unaware of where it will all go. Perhaps it is all by design

I too miss Denise, it has been a long time since she has posted. I feel her health may be the reason. It is nice that the mechanic could repair both of your pumps. Now you can feel more secure knowing

It is always a big job getting the freezers done, but in the end, so worth it. Glad you did too. I have one more to do this weekend.

I hear that! Since it was raining it was a good time to fit one of them in to defrost. I still have the chest freezer to do. That will be this weekend as more rain is coming. I have to cut back some plants

Me too! I have to keep all that ice build-up to a minimum, plus I want to keep it less stocked for better airflow. Next, the chest freezer needs to be done. Ugh!

Right, and we are only two people. I do tend to keep a lot of food on hand. I am not a fan of going shopping too often, so I make sure I have a lot of everything I use all the time. ♥

Thank you, Jlufer. I love seeing the birds and enjoy your shadow hunting and Wednesday walkabout. ♥

Me too, someday I will try to recreate one like it. I love the stone on the birdhouses.

It is a very beautiful tribute to the goddess. So many colorful lights and costumes. Nice!

Thank you, @mysteriousroad. Have a wonderful day.

I'm so sorry you lost a bird this week, that is always so hard to see. Here is my entry for the week. Happy bird watching everyone.

Stunning views of the island.

Thank you very much @creativecuisine for mentioning my Jalapeno Popper post. ♥

You got some terrific shots of that beetle, well done!
