A few more of my sweet little angelbaby!

Simon will be 11 years old this November.







He loves his blankies, running away from threatening leaves that fly toward him, and eating everything he can fit into his little kitty mouth.

Me and my lazy black cat known as Sausage.

Sam was a beauty, and that first photo is so atmospheric - a fantastic pic

LIL that middle photo of Simon is a corker! He's a lovely cat, as is Sausage (loving that name ) Mazzereth.

Mazz, how did Sausage ever get his name?

She was a re-homed cat. Her real name is Rhubarb but we did not like it much. Anyway…when you hold her she stretches out and looks like a big Sausage and the name has kind of stuck.

Awwww. Cute! Well, she looks like a little sweetheart.

Not my dog, but I played with her a bit since I have been back.

It is my friend Caitlin's dog.

'Sausage and Scruff' sounds like a blues song from the 1920s.

Thanks a heap, Tray, but I have to admit that, that pic is somewhat of an illusion. What I mean is that the pond is nowhere near as mystical as it looks in the pic. It's surrounded by cornfields (it's in Hallsville, Il) and immediately behind me (I was standing on an arm of ground that jutted out from the S/E corner of the pond) was the drainage/overflow for the pond. The fog simply added an amazing backdrop and "atmosphere" (as you aptly put it).

That pic was taken with a disposable Fuji camera that I got for buying 2 packs of Marlboros. It sat in my backpack for over a year - thru both heat of Summer and cold of Winter - until I'd taken all of the pictures. I've always considered the pics to be a lucky fluke because I never expected them to actually turn out.

When I saw that picture of Sam, I knew I had me a keeper. Just moments after I snapped that pic, 4 ducks that had been waiting for Sam to vacate the tip of the point swam past. I wish they had swum past while Sam was still sitting there, but I respect their decision not to.

That pic is an awesome memory of a dog that could live up to the hype. I've always called it "Gold At Waters Edge."
