A Sinuous Walk

Cat sees dog

The slow acceptance

Note to self. “Don’t get so close to dawg!”

A sinuous walk
Winding through three sunder miles
Born to see the light

Jake turns into a Werejake on Halloween

Holy Jakamole! That’s impressive! And the rest of you cats think I’m silly to be wary of Jake! I rest my kitty case.

Hard Frost

When Jake and I left for our walk at 6:45 a.m., the temperature was 25º F (-3.9º C). When we got back home 55 minutes later, the temperature had dropped to 24º F (-4.4º C). We had been getting light frost for the past two weeks. This morning was the first hard frost.

Mysty dawn

Coyote was doing a weird stretch this morning

We may have awakened him

That felt good!

The cranes are collecting

Silver gave up on the cat class, and gave into the summoning sunrise.

Almost sunset

Jake: “Ah, hmm! Hey, paparazzo, when are we going back inside so you can feed me?”

Tickles Jake’s Fancy

Pre-dawn

Venus

Tuumbleweeds hardened
Walking levees at twilight
Tickles Jake’s fancy

Puddles on the paths

Still dawn

Almost sunset

With the rains comes the need to repair the culvert that we use to drive over the drainage ditch. I went into my one-man chain gang mode and filled in the holes caused by the rainwater ponding on the culvert. I paused to take a few photos as the sun was setting.

Sunset

Rain

Started the day with some purple rain

Which turned the river red

A dark, rainy day required extra light and a bird

Loki napped during a mid-morning rain shower

Dark, cloudy and rainy all day

I’m not giving you two pennies for your thoughts about il paparazzo, loki and Silver
