Blog For Peace 2016

Each November 4th, we create our peace "globe" and join with other bloggers - and now those on Facebook, Twitter, and other social media also - to blog for peace.

This began with Mimi Lenox ten years ago and has spread around the world.  Check out other peace globes - funny, serious, memorials to a loved one, etc.  So many beautiful graphics with messages of peace!

Fall Festival 2016

Merci: Halloween might be over but it sticks in pix.

Taylor: It what?

Cyndi: Merci means it lingers in photos.

Taylor: You mean there really are ghosts and goblins that hang around after the celebration?

Merci: No, silly, I mean we have pictures. Some of the local churches held a Fall Festival at the Greatest Generation Park on Halloween.

Cyndi: It' a safe way for children and parents to have trick or treat fun safely.

Taylor:  Oh, that's where Jan walked to on Monday.

Merci:  Yes.  it was packed!  She barely made it home on wobbly legs.  

Taylor:  Can we share them?  The pictures, I mean.


Cyndi:  Yep, that's what this post is for.

Tim and the Halloween headless A.C.T.S. Outreach of GA team were passing out candy.

This is the Sin Crusher.  Interesting name.

The Sheriff and Deputies.

Playground for the kids.

Cotton candy.

Cooking the hot dogs.

There were toss games for children.

And an inflatable slide.

Even the GA State Patrol was passing out candy.

This nice young man didn't laugh when Jan asked if R.U.S.H. is a musical group.  His friends hid behind Jan but he posed and approved the picture. 

Jan should have walked around the van before assuming this was the musical entertainment. 

Balloons, balloons, balloons.

Praise dancers.

The water fountain.  No, not the drinking fountain . 

Just a small part of the crowd.

Now this is the band.

Merci:  And so ends your first Halloween, Taylor.  Are you already looking forward to next year?

Taylor:  No, not really.  It seems to be a time for humans to dress weird and to receive lots of candy.  We didn't get any candy.

Cyndi:  Be glad you're a cat.  I think it must be exhausting to walk around dressed in a costume carrying a bag of candy that gets heavier and heavier.

Taylor:  You have a good point.  If humans want to give out real treats, they should be handing out bugs and mice.

Merci:  Oh, yes, I can see that now. Bags would be flying and humans would be screaming.

Cyndi:  And we furries would be so thankful for the tasty snacks.
 


We are joining the Thankful Thursday blog hop at Brian's Home.  Brian has graciously taken it over from Pepi Smart Dog.  We appreciate that Pepi hosted it for so long.

Sneaky Devils

 Buddy:  Look at Micah.  He really loves, loves, loves his scratcher lounge.  

Percy:  He looks like a sleeping angel in these pictures.  No one would recognize him for the sneaky devil he is in real life. 

Buddy:  Micah would probably say the same thing about you, Percy.  After all, it's not a one-sided feud.  You antagonize each other.

Percy:  This opportunity is too good to pass up.  I think I'll just sneak up and whap him a good one in the head.  That should keep him sleeping with one eye open for a week. 

Buddy:  I'll go make sure the first aid kit is handy for both of you.

Percy:  Good idea.  He'll need some patching up.

Buddy:  Here, Percy, I found the first aid kit.  Percy?

Percy:  Zzzzzzzz.

Buddy:  Drat!  I was looking forward to refereeing a cat fight.  Should I give a Tarzan yell to wake them both up or should I let them sleep?    Decisions, decisions.  I think I need a nap to think it over.

Solid Gold Purrfect Pairings

Rusty:  Hey, Jan, you gave me an empty dish.  Aren't you going to feed me?

Jan:  I already fed you.

Rusty:  But my dish is empty.  Aren't you going to fill it up again?

Jan:  No!

Rusty:  Well, how am I going to write a review if I don't have any food in my dish to review?

Jan:  You'll think of something.

Micah:  I'm not having a problem.  My dish is not empty

Taylor:  Mine either.  Jan always tries to keep us hydrated and adds water to our canned food.

Micah  See, Rusty, you did have food.  What did Jan say it is?  I forget.

Rusty:  It's the Solid Gold Purrfect Pairings cat food.  There are six flavors and they come in a case of six 2.5 oz cups.   We tried salmon and goat milk savory mouse... I mean, mousse.  An unusual combination but it's quite tasty. Chewy lists its key benefits as -

    Holistic wet recipe for all life stages.
    Unique flavor combo of real salmon and goat milk.
    Picky cats will love the light mousse texture.
    Free of grains and glutens.
    Essential nutrients are easier to digest.

Percy: This was really good the first time I tried it but after that I'd just eat a couple of bites and leave the rest.

Rusty:  That's okay.  We've shared your leftovers. 

Cyndi:  I don't know what Percy's problem is.  Four out of five of us enjoyed the Solid Gold Purrfect Pairings..

We received this cat food from Chewy in exchange for our honest review.  We received no other compensation and Chewy is not responsible for the content of this post.
