    [QUOTE=Gilliatt Gurgle;1170034]So, how long did Mily put up with the neighbors(?) cat eating her food?

    The gardens and pub are inviting.
    Thanks for sharing

    [QUOTE]
    I've managed to get Milly to accept our neighbour's cat but she does it grudgingly and occasionally takes a swipe at him when she passes by.

    You probably noticed that the photos are slightly out of focus but that's because I am still using the damaged Nikon.

    Howdy, Gill. I snapped that photo from a turnout on US101. La Roja (wife) and I had done a couple of Mt. Hood hikes earlier in the week, but on that particular day we’d been bombing around the Willamette Valley in our rent-a-car, sampling as much free wine as we could find at the local vineyards. It was a splendid day. Sorry, Emil, I've always enjoyed drinking and driving (in moderation, of course).

    As for kitties, this one showed up at my house last winter – pregnant and sans tail. We call her Bob-Cat. She's turned out to be a great barn cat. All the various assorted varmints have moved next door.

    Gooood kitty:
    Uhhhh...

    They usually manage to find a home if they have gone astray and females make the best mousers. My own has cleared the garden of mice but even she isn't fast enough to catch the pigeons that congregate below the bird feeders hanging above.

    I built a ladder for Bob-Cat out of scrap lumber and carpet remnants. And this year, for the first time in a long while, the barn swallows have decided to nest in someone else’s rafters.

    Gooood kitty.
    Uhhhh...

    Yes, good kitty and what a moustache!

    Thanks for the comments, I've been to Islamabad and taken some pictures there. The second last photo is from Saidpur village.

    WOW!

    The legs on that ...uh...boiler(?) look hot.
    Seriously- it is an interesting composition in B/W and what is that piece of equipment?
    Looks like someone spent some time with a cutting torch.

    You got anymore to share?

    I will pass that compliment to her!

    I took the photos in a industrial dump and do not know what on what
    she is sitting. I have a series of photos of people in that industrial dump, but haven't posted the rest of them.

    Maddie, Snowqueen, Tony, thank you for your amazing pictures! And Emil and Sancho, your cats are so dear (yes, Sancho, even that little outlaw you call Bob-Cat).

    Snowqueen, is that child your niece?

    Thanks for your comments Qimi. You are looking at a boy (my uncle's grandson).
