“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…..

Strolling through the park one day

Posted on August 22, 2013 by cyetso

Although it’s August, and not the merry, merry month of May. Couple of cool shots nonetheless. I think anyway.

This is the orange-est sunflower I’ve ever seen –

Then, against all odds,I almost walked into this tree –

Then I found the fences. I like the way the filtered light was playing with them –

Maybe tomorrow it’ll rain and change the perspective again? Stay tuned…..

I am the King of the Jungle

Posted on August 21, 2013 by cyetso

Well, the top of the stairs anyway –

This is the ‘Great, you’re home, now let me outside’ roar.

Your wish is my command, cat.

Doing everything they can to brighten a gray Seattle day –

Mission accomplished on the bright part.

As far as I’m concerned, the rain is welcome relief.

Auf Wiedersehen

Posted on July 29, 2013 by cyetso

Said goodbye to the BMW today. A bit sad. But it goes to a good home with an owner that will use it the way it is supposed to be used –

Farewell ARRTEE, travel well.

Been on Injured Reserve the last few days. Hurt my neck in a (I am not making this up*) walking to the car accident. Headed out the door for work, walking to the car I managed to pinch a nerve or something in my neck. For a while there it looked as though we might have to amputate, but time (and ice cold Margaritas) healed me to about 80% as of today. So there’s my excuse for posting nothing for the last couple days. Like it or lump it.

We did a ton of garden stuff this past weekend, hurt neck and all. We’re trying to finish up what we started. Actually got to the planting stage. So off to the flower store we went. Unfiltered from our spree –

Oh yeah, they’ve got turtles too. This one’s a bit shy –

Some of these I actually like enough to think about printing them. So that was a pretty good day. I learned that if you ever need subjects, the flower place has got you covered.

I’ll post the progress of the garden later, but yes, it looks fantastic.

* Thanks to Dave Barry, you’re a funny dude.
