COLD DARK ROOM

[Tidgy's Dad]

Electricity is a wonderful thing.
Do you realize, Roomies, that we'd be watching TV and typing our messages on the computer by candlelight if we didn't have electricity?

Last night I slept like a log.
I woke up in the fireplace.

I would like to have moles in the Cold Dark Room, but the floor's too hard for digging.

FREAKY! The mole did not look like that in Wind in the Willows!

Why yes... and since it’s so dark, we can tell Alexa or Siri what we need ?

Good morning all!!!! Wishing everyone a wonderful Friday.. daughter and I are back to the big city for more Dr’s today...

my Tom cat has been having a party during the night and twice over the past weekI have found tiny baby life forms in my bedroom doorway.... lifeless.....?. I had assumed that he had found of nest of fieldmice... until 2 am this morning. It appears that he has been hunting under the back deck and bringing in the nightlife through the doggy door.

He’s apparently wiped out a whole family of gophers and will be receiving extra treats and affection for his efforts!!! Well done Jerry!

My house is loaded with field mice because my property borders on a grass seed field. I have a lot of mice and see them daily. These are my 2 broken mice traps. Last night I snuck thru my house and found, #1 broken mouse trap...

watching the mice play in my dishwasher
here is #2 broken mouse trap altho he did bring me a vole last week

You can really see Simon's cancer eye in that picture. He's lost all the color of his iris and it's brown now...

Bless them!!! I also have one broken mouse trap! She looks a lot like your Simon! She is old and entitled though so we don’t mind... I would much rather them hunt the gophers and voles, squirrels, moles and all the other critters that destroy my land and gardens.. I don’t recall the mice ever bothering anything.. ?
Simon is beautiful with the brown eye

Indeed not.
Moley in Wind in the Willows wore a waistcoat; for one thing.

Love it! Its deceptively snouty!

I have spent the day inventing a new type of burglar alarm.
But somebody's stolen it.

I visited Morocco once, after a long day sightseeing I was very thirsty so I went over to a group of market stalls to buy something to drink. "Excuse me" I asked the first vendor " do you have any water?" I'm sorry, he replied " I only have custard". I went to the next vendor and asked the same question. "I'm sorry," he said " I only sell jello". I moved on to the next stall and repeated my question. "I'm sorry, I only have whipped cream." Well by now I most annoyed and shouted at the man, " what kind of market only sells custard, jello and whipped cream! Its ridiculous!" The vendor replied " well yes, it is a trifle bazaar" @Tidgy's Dad

Another foggy start to our day, arm healed “good enough“ & bandaged well enough to venture out with my traveling mates. We knew it would be nice if & when the sun popped. We nailed it!



and some thumbnails...

Unfortunately, you’re right. The warm days are numbered. Water is still relatively warm, but next week many days only in the 50’s. Go Fish! ??

It felt like a blessing when I was able to see it anyway. I'm sending you a little prayer ???

 

[Ray--Opo]

Did I tell you I'm on a whisky diet?
I've lost three days already.

Been there done that!?

 

[Ray--Opo]

Yep. He came to visit today. I guess I'm more like an adopted great grandma. He's so cute and funny. Real grandma had to play all day and I got to watch and laugh...?

That's nice!
