The rugged, breathtaking landscapes of the Isle of Skye are captured beautifully by Chris Clor.
Hi everyone, Today’s guest story comes from Alain Cami and Guava! 🙂 When Cami was found by his foster Susan he was nursing on a possum. Susan cared for him and brought him home and that’s when he met Guava. Guava was put in the feral room by the so-called shelter and Susan came just […]
Excellent post from WEGGIEBOY’S BLOG: Post 1494: “Caturday’s for chilling,” purrs Andy!
Andy’s chilling! There’s a ceiling fan above this spot, a fact not lost on Andy.
What!? What!? What!? Dougy just sauntered by.
Oh well, “Caturday’s for chilling,” purrs Andy! He lets the affront pass.
In a corner on the balcony of the natural museum at Helsinki two giraffes look out. I share this post with The Daily Post´s weekly Photography Challenge: Corner.

No blue, no green”

Green Taking Over
Green, is the front yard
Green, is the colour of the greeting card
Green, is the mind of this bard
Green, you cannot discard
Green, now also Red Rover
Green, like the four leaf clover
Green, is summer’s exposure
Green, is taking over
I have nearly 2500 followers on this blog. This is not to brag to but to bring up a larger point in that about 5% of them have regular engagement (commenting and liking).

“Never, ever underestimate the importance of having fun”
Randy Pausch
One – Two – Fun
Red headed
Pen for a body
None too snotty
Just a little naughty
Always jolly

Like a hurricaine
It flees this very plane
Looking, for a new game

“Never, ever underestimate the importance of having fun”
Randy Pausch
One – Two – Fun
White headed
Green bodied
One minded
Fun winded
Sitting on the sidewalk
Always on the stalk
For a little distraction
Some kind of action
Of the fun variety
With a sense of propriety
