Look up in the sky!

 Tuesday afternoon, no sunshine, Cinnamon was in the hallway. "Walkies?" I asked. His eyes got wide and he went to the door. He sure knows the word. After vaguely looking for the squirrel in the front yard, he came along. He ran on ahead. As he always does! It's a race.


The sun is warmer, and there are signs of spring. You can see how the bark reflects the warmth of the sun. The snow is melted around the base of the tree.

Down at the pond, I stood on the dock and snapped a photo of two of the wood duck nesting boxes.

This is fun! My SIL went up for a ride in his friend's plane last week. He posted a few photos, announcing imminent take off, and I tracked them on Flight Radar. 



They flew over near their house, and the girls were outside and waved! Can you see?! It is straight up above the windows of the house, to the right of the tree on the left. It's just a dot.

It's interesting comparing the two flight trackers, Flight Radar and Flight Aware! They did a touchdown landing in both Brockville and Smiths Falls.

When cats fly

On a trip to Bayshore Mall I was totally impressed with the display. Tricky photography what with the skylights. I found some cat quotes at Flippy's page.
If you gave wings to a cat, it would not condescend to be a bird. It would be an angel. 
- Dick Shawn [1923-1987]


Cat angels are the reason there are no mice angels. - Mel Brooks

Cats are very special angels, but they're not angelic. Watch what happens when a flock of birds fly by, beneath the clouds. - Elizabeth Hubbard Hall
God allows cats in heaven just so he can keep an eye on them. - Dixie Carter
