Who knew all this would happen afterwards! January 31, snow still falling (while cars and walks were "leaf-blown" at 12:30 pm) in Black Mountain NC.

Ten little kittens and two pups

 

Reality check...here's what we're expecting later today. This photo was taken of my cherry tree where I lived on Feb 26, 2013, at 8 am in Black Mountain. I know many people see icicles much more often than I do!

Now for today's critters...

Sharing with Saturday's Critters



Try not to take everything personally, things that people say and do don’t always have anything to do with you.

    ...the Art Deco artwork Emerald Eyes by the Russian-born French artist Erté (Romain de Tirtoff) is my favorite! Amen to the Walk for Peace!!!

      Admittedly that is the only painting, except perhaps Beatrix Potter's bunny under the covers!

    My life would be so much poorer without my cat, despite her seeming insanity. That's just the truth.
    Stay in and stay warm.

      I agree completely, and do miss having a purring furry friend. Don't miss the litter box though!

      I can’t remember what device has those bars that light up but it does give the right message!

    I didn't realize the monks were walking shoeless. I hope they're safe and warm from this storm. Must check on that.

      I heard they canceled their lunchtime meeting in Raleigh. The picture is from several days ago before it got cold. I have seen them today wearing sneakers. I hope they walk in the ice storm. I think they are wide enough to not do that
