Lucky Lou

This is Lucky.

We rescued her from Hines Park.
She kept sleeping on the railing of our deck or grill. She was 11 weeks. Crying like a baby.
I begged to keep her.
Had a 2-1/2" deep gash at the tip of her tail.
Healed up very well.
She is skittish but a REALLY good cat.
Ain't she pretty?
My 2 other cats get along really good w/her.
She is a year or so younger than them.
She is 3 years old.

Swans of Kensington



Vic, taking a break from biking.

Instead of "stopping to smell the roses" he is checking the iphone.











The swans were looking for dinner right by us while we grilled our dinner.

Greenmead Garden Update: Joe's Salsa

Our garden friend Joe planted a lot of pepper plants last year and made different kinds of Salsa. He gave us some to sample:

Mild
Medium Blended
H-Mild
Hot
V-Hot
and a green one (Salsa Verde?)

Can't wait to crack one open on the 4th!
It will go good w/Margaritas & Grilled Chicken w/this mexican spicy/sweet pecan barbacue sauce i made.
I gave him some raspberry jam.
