Attack Kitten!

December 3, 2008 by Tricia

Wordless Wednesday

pouncing kitten

Ready, set, POUNCE!

I don’t know what the kitten lying on the bed did, but the cute black kitten seems to think it needs punishment. Look at those claws as the kitten flies through the air! I’ll bet that hurt when it landed on the other kitten!

Actually, it kind of looks like the kitten on the bed is about to jump on something itself. Maybe it moved before the other cat had a chance to land?

BTW these are not my kittens, although I kind of wish they were. They’re so cute!

Resigned to winter’s arrival

November 30, 2008 by Tricia

It’s beginning to get colder here in Toronto and soon .. the snow that falls will stay on the ground for days or a week at a time, or perhaps like last year it might stay for months!

As I was just saying on my gardening blog, my plants have finally realized that winter is just about here and have reluctantly gone into dormancy.

There are still a few roses clinging stubbornly to their stems, but they are dead … unlike the rose below which was very much alive and happily blooming in August.

Chicago Peace Rose

Chicago Peace produced such lovely roses all summer. It’s a shame that I won’t see another rose from this plant until next May or June … but it’s worth the wait.

I think that as a Northern gardener I appreciate my garden all the more in the spring, summer and early fall because I know there will be several months during the winter when all I’ll see will be the white of snow, gray skies … no green leaves or grasses, no colorful flowers, no scent of rose perfume, lavender, beebalm or jasmine … no garden to sit in with my laptop or a good book.

I’m resigned to winter’s arrival, but secretly I’m already longing for spring.

How would you like to live in this house?

House by the sea?

This is a nice enough looking house … maybe a little small, but I think it’s just a little too close to the water. Don’t you?

The owner must have really wanted a house on the beach!

Reflections of Midnight

November 22, 2008 by Tricia

This weeks Photo Hunt theme is Reflection

IMG_5135

I took this photo near the beginning of November.

We had taken Midnight, our Lab, to a local park for a romp in the woods and while there she found a small pond and being a water dog couldn’t resist jumping in.

I like how you can see her reflection in the water in front of her. You can also see blurred reflections of the trees surrounding the pond in the water too.

Here’s a shot of Midnight as she got closer to the edge of the pond. You can still see her reflection in the water in front of her, but what I like most about this photo is that it’s an action shot. Look at how the water parts around her as she runs towards land. She was moving fast!

We’ve had snow this week. Snow that stayed on the ground. It’s beginning to melt but I think we’re expecting more, so I doubt Midnight will have any more swims in ponds or the lake this year! She does love rolling around in the snow so I’m sure she won’t miss the water too much!

Check out my other Photo Hunter entry Reflections of Toronto too!

There’s something wrong with the drinking water …

November 19, 2008 by Tricia

Wordless Wednesday

fishy water

When you think about it this sign is sooooo true. There are fish in most water areas and what do fish do … eat and crap … so yeah … don’t drink the water.

Of course … another reason to not drink the water might be because an elephant’s been in it too …

That’s one way to take a shower!

I hope that everyone is having a great Wednesday!
