The One Upside of Hurricanes

The weather is a bit more pleasant right now thanks in no small part to the 3 additional storms headed this general direction. The local weatherman says it's like planes lined up coming in for a landing. It seems to have cooled things off just a tad and will bring us some rain that in other years has been in very short supply. Blackie & friends don't really mind the rains. After all they hang out in a carport most of the day or under a car. Yep! They will sit under a car sometimes even when it's raining despite getting soaked as water streams along. But it's the lightning, thunder, and high winds that they could easily do without. Well me too, I guess. LOL



The duck friends came by yesterday for a snack. After they cleaned out the food dishes I had to head down to the store for more food. And did the kitty friends ever appreciate it! Along with their Good Life dry food I picked up a can of 9 Lives flaked Tuna & Egg. The little honeys practically inhaled it. It was all gone before I even had a chance to refill the water dishes.

Hairy snuck in twice when I was coming out to check on them. The way she was looking around I think she must believe I have all kinds of can food just sitting on the floor waiting with the top already off or something. I made the mistake of once showing her where I keep it and she will often look up at the cabnet, then over at the plate on the floor where I leave a little dry food for her visits, then up at me as if to say, "So when's dinner?"

It's about noon local time and the crickets are chirping like crazy. That often means weather is coming so I am off to check on the friends. Later!
