I like adopting litter mates. My ex’s two female cats inspired me to adopt Tom and Jerry.

And now, I have Ti-VAY and Signor Angellini. 

But “buyer beware”: one of the siblings may be a “bad seed”.  I’ve captured one of mine on film here with nefarious thoughts visible through the windows to his soul (da Vinci).

“How did I end up here?

How can we I escape?

Why does he have so many columns?

I’ve never looked good next to red….”

A few summers ago here in Minnesota.

One of my lost gardens, eventually paved over for new parking spots. Which I get, but it’s still sad to see the lost of a garden, or as commonly called in urban areas these days, green space. 

I know the neighbors sure appreciated it—-every time they walked by they’d make a point of telling me!

I managed to harvest almost every single plant before I moved. I moved a month before the building was sold, and had been told there was a chance they’d just rip everything up.

They did, so it turned out I moved the perfect month after living there six years. My friends and I were ecstatic at the timing.

One of my favorite views in my old apartment. I did the painting on the right, and the old door had a mirror. I love all the old wood trim. I added the column, of course, with my column obsession.The building was built in 1920.

Jerry grooming one of the young’uns.  2011.

There’s always concern when adding a new cat(s) to one you already have. Jerry took a day or so to start treating them like a real daddy. Most cats don’t know their fathers; only the mother sticks around and takes care of the kittens. 

The new boys have always been spoiled having a surrogate daddy.

Nice evening sky 2009. 

From late in the day painting some railroad cars a few years back. 

A species closely related to the common houseplant  ”Snake Plant” or “Mother-in-Law’s Tongue”. Sanseveria cylindrica.

And a rambling cat’s tail or common cattail

“Who let the Cat outta the bag?!?”

Even at nearly 18 yrs Jerryatric Jerry has to scope out an open bag…

But his curiosity didn’t last terribly long.

Learning about how realistic the length of a lightening strike is!

Thanks for bearing with me. Compare this to my previous post. Think I got it.

Taking a pic of my patio evergreen conifer collection (breath) pretending my weeping ‘Tollifson’s Blue’ Juniper was my beard and noticed a potential selfie, (omg!!!—-yes!!!).
And then a lightening strike.
