Nature and Feline Friday with Kat and some other Cats


Thanks Comedy Plus for hosting

Thanks LLB Gang for hosting
Mom and Dad took a day-trip to Nevada’s oldest state park, Valley of Fire.
According to Wikipedia:

The state park derives its name from red sandstone formations, the Aztec Sandstone, which formed from shifting sand dunes 150 million years ago. (Wikipedia)

They saw several big horned sheep, and this guy was nice enough to pose.
Bighorn Sheep who probably is the boss of Valley of Fire, Nevada where he resides



I watched the video on Dad’s laptop,  and I’m happy I stayed home. 😹


Drive thru some of the most gorgeous Red Rocks!!
Mom of Kat and Pup took both these while Dad Drove

Deareast nephew!!! 
OMCs can you imagine getting up close and purrsonal with that Big Horn Sheep?
You are for sure in some beautiful country.  I loved the red rocks!!
Good to hear you were in charge of the Wheelie house
Lovingly your Aunty HiC

Feline Friday in Abstract 
can you see the kitty
called Pens and Paws,
I think every kitty needs eyes so I added buttons
I might embroider mouth before it is finished
I like this print; however, if I used it again I'll substitute a teal to replace the white to
give it a pop.

Both kitties have white heads, backs and a tucked tail.


Both will be added to a quilt in progress that will have samples of all the
blocks I have learned.

    Such beautiful scenery and colours. It reminds me of when we went through Zion National Park.

    What a beautiful drive - reminded me of Australia's 'red centre'...

    Those kitties are interesting... Miss C, are you aware that you are doing PATCHWORK... QUILTING is the sewing of a thread pattern through all the layers of a blocked counterpane? Have you been learning to do that too? It can quite change the appearance of the work! YAM xx

    the red rocks are gorgeous, the drive facing traffic on that narrow road is not my thing to do, I rather watch tv with Kat... I don't see a cat on the quilt square, not even where the buttons are.. I just wish I could sew a hem on t-shirts..

    Gorgeous scenery, though I felt I was on the wrong side of the road.... Kat made the right decision, don't think he would have enjoyed the ride.

    I love those quilts. It did take me some time to find the cat in the first one though. But eventually I cottoned on. *Sigh* I think I will stick to knitting...

    Klem, Mara
