labor day was enjoyed with friends on the screened porch; talking, doing handwork, sipping iced tea, watching the antics of the ducks, kitties and birds, dining. it was a lovely way to end "official" summer (even as the calendar indicates summer will be present for a few more weeks).
a tropical storm turned hurricane visited the gulf of mexico last week. by friday, the remnants of issac moved north making it possible for us to have three days of rain. the respite amid the year long drought was very much welcomed.
a turtle was rescued from the road this morning. a cute little guy who can now call the farm home.
the hummingbirds zoom about as if in formation like the air force's blue angels. yesterday i happened to look out the window to find the wee kittens tracking the hummingbirds in flight. what a sight! mango and scruffie moved their heads in unison, round and about, to follow the flight paths of the hummingbirds. silly kitties.
since being home after taking the grandchildren home, it's been possible to do a page or two in the art journal. it felt good to delve into that process again.
by whimsey and happenstance, twitter friends and i have been playing virtual *kick* the can! the twitter community is such fun. grand connections have been made with the twitter followers of the whimsey project!
