Off to The Rock

Thursday, July 06, 2006

The wildlife around here like to taunt my two cats, as you will have seen from yesterday's post. Here is one of the many squirrels, close up and then look out the window in the next photo, there he is: "na na na na na na" at the cat.
I am leaving tomorrow to go here. This will hopefully be my last work-related trip this year. I will tell you all about it when I return, but in the meantime, here are some more pictures that I took today...I will be back early next week.

    The problem for the squirrels etc taunting your cats is that they have to be right each and every time. The cats only have to be right once.

    The flowers are very attractive. Our geraniums and foxgloves are done for the year - guess it's cooler up your way. Happy travels.

    Hi Cathy, Just wandered over from Michelle's blog. We have some identical foxgloves in our yard. Read your profile. I watch the Vancouver TV station fairly often, travel to Vancouver now and then. (Love the Punjabi Market and Yorktown Brewery), and watch the CBC during the Olympics. Sorry, but I swear I am always hearing "aboot". I have a couple of Canada related stories on my blog.

    Cathy, Cathy, quite contrary, how does your garden grow?
    With cat-free zones and squirrel bones, all in a row.

    Take care and have a safe trip. I like your garden.

    wow a proper cat. The cats here are scrawny little things. Mind you the biggest dog I have seen is only ankle high. I think they are fashion accessories more than pets

    Poor kitties! Though for indoor cats I often wonder if they're even know what to do if they got to chase the wildlife. They'd probably still be outsmarted.

    Are those flowers in your own garden? I'm always impressed by gardeners because I am horrible with all living plants. My plant collection always looks like the critical care ward.

    Have a safe trip!

    Are those Foxgloves???
    If so I planted them this year and they are not growing. Any tips? Like do they have to mature???

    Hey, check this out - the piccie of the squirrel made me think - today, while visiting my mom, we looked out the window to see 10 - yes 10 - of those little rascally things eating birdseed! They were chowing down, big time... ha!

    You take such beautiful and well-composed photos, Cathy.

    Have a good trip, we look forward to hearing about it!

    My last conference was on intercultural understanding and global perspective. It was really good!
