Kitty Update

Mayana (mama cat) took her 2 kitties back to where they came from (they were all gone for a couple days last month) and came back here to live just herself. Little did she know we'd soon have company....



This is one of kitty girl's fave places to be-perched on my dad's back, but really she doesn't care who it is just someone, anyone! I can walk through the house with her perched on my shoulder! She's the weirdest cat I've ever had, but I love her.

Welcome Welcome Charlie!!
Charlie came allllll the way from Show Low where he'd shown up on the doorstep of friends Harry & Penny, and who's other cats didn't welcome him in with open paws. So they asked if I'd like to take him in and I said sure!
So far Mayana has been quite curious of our new friend, following him everywhere he goes and offering to share grasshoppers and mice that she's caught to no avail. Charlie's still gettin used to his new digs and would rather Mayana not follow him everywhere, but what are ya gonna do??

Oops I...

skipped Halloween... literally and figuratively lol I was in a bad mood so I didn't attend the Halloween party I had been invited to so here's a couple super cute pics of Wyatt in his costume instead! ;-)

Quote Of The Day

Ok, so this wasn't today, but it was great on the day it was said! ;-)
On Zack's first visit out to the Retreat he was frollicking in the garden in the rain munching on a clump of lettuce freshly plucked from the earth as well as some mustard greens which taste very much like dijon mustard when he said, "Now all ya need is a bread plant and a mayonaise plant and you'd be all set!"

New House!

My timeline is getting a little jumbled here with my posts as my camera was having picture transferring issues, but here ya go! I've been out here a month now!




These first 2 are a split panorama of the front of the house


This is the gate to the front porch & yard/garden. I love the bright colors!


Here's a bird's eye view of the front yard/garden or most of it at least.

This is the fort/playhouse/sleeping porch thingy ;-)
