FINITO!

Posted on September 16, 2013 by cyetso

Well, not completely, but damn close –

The big part is over just in time for fall. So now we wait and see what the spring brings and take care of it then.

In the olden days

Posted on September 11, 2013 by cyetso

They would’ve used this to power a saw, or mill or some other sort of critically important mechanical device –

Anymore they’re mostly being used for ornamental landscaping reasons. And they make for nice subjects of the camera.

I’d like to incorporate a small one into the pond, somehow. If I could get one of my engineering minded siblings to draw one up, I’d give it a go.

Where were we?

Posted on September 10, 2013 by cyetso

Catching up with some clicks from the weekend, that’s where.

We went out on Saturday to Flower World for more, you guessed it, FLOWERS! I think that’s enough for now, but it’s not my department, so yeah. We’ll see. The fine flower people have a petting zoo for the kids. We went. We acted like children. It was the real reason for going in the first place. On with the photos.

They have FANCY chickens –

They have FAST FANCY chickens –

They have chickens with surfer inspired haircuts –

They have very proud peacocks –

And very STATELY chickens –

Chickenfoot? Would make a great name for a band. How about Peacockfoot?

Enough with the birds, it’s supposed to be a petting zoo. How about a goat?

Or maybe a sheep?

Or a very rare bear/sheep mix?

But the cutest thing had to be the baby ducks. Excruciatingly camera shy, VERY CUTE –

Then it was off to buy flowers and get cracking with the yardwork. All in good fun.

More later.

Thanks.

Booze = $

For proof, look no further than this –

Owned by the guy that sells the world Stoli Vodka, it’s quite Serene –

It’s a long way from home port on Grand Cayman –

You know you’ve made it when they tell you to park your private yacht next to the cruise ship terminal –

Makes Abramovich’s Luna look like a child’s toy by comparison. Read a little more here.

So, sell a little vodka, get a nice boat. Good by me.

So what are you doing in the birdbath?

Birdbrain is more like it.

Leave some for the birds.

“You’re ruining the hunt”

He says as he stares right through me –

So I got the heck out of there before I suffered any of the consequences.

He’s a tough cat. Fair, but tough…..
