Nature and Feline Friday Flashback

Mom Beth and the Girls made a beautiful new 

Nature Friday Badge honoring the Memory of our friend 

Gail

On March 5, 2025, my friend Denise at An English Girl Rambles, posted about

fairies.  It reminded me of my Fairy post in 2021.

 You might remember my post HERE

I heard there were several other Fairy Doors around the City.  After some research, I found four other locations. MD, my driver aka DM, Dad of Madi, and I started our hunt for Fairies we only found one of the four mentioned BUT OMCs was a treasure of a find!!

There was a Fairy Forest at the Wilkerson Nature Preserve Park

On Wednesday, March 10 we drove 11 miles from home to visit 

Dr. Annie Louise Wilkerson's Nature Preserve.  She was affectionately nicknamed, Dr. Annie by her patients. Dr. Annie first female OB/GYN in Raleigh.  The OB/BYN practice was with her brothers.  All were Dr. Wilkerson so she went by Dr. Annie.  She donated 157 acres of her Family farm to Raleigh for a Nature preserve.  We just scratched the surface on the trails.  We'll be going back a lot.  The hardwood trees will keep it very cool in the spring and summer. 

The Fairy Forest trail is just off from the parking a lot.  The path is very well marked as you will see from these two collages.

What a delightful time we had following seeing all the creativity some in plain sight others hiding.

Millie and Walters mom commented below about the collage below:

Did you see the secret red door? In the 4th collage (outlined in red) of your post (not counting the FFF badge), in the picture in the upper right quadrant there is a teeny tiny red door with some stone steps leading up to it at the top of the picture. We made the picture as big as possible to see it.  Biggify the collage to find it.

Imagination is encouraged.  We saw seashells twigs arranged in teepee style and

elaborately painted houses with whirlygigs on them

The 157 acres have educational buildings on it and a huge pond.  

As we approached the pond, we saw a great blue heron take off from the pond.  

There are several beaver dams.

Random photo collage of just a few trails and sights we'll be going back

Thoroughly Poetic Thursday # 203

 Today is Poetic Thursday hosted by our pals Teddy and Angel Sammy at Two Spoiled Cats

This week's photo challenge

While taking a walk in the Zoo,

I heard the big Cats mew.

When I stopped, to gaze at the magnificent pride

There was Leo walking toward the fence.

My heart swelled with 'pride'.

I was his handler when he was a cub...

Did he remember me??!!

The answer was yes.

He softly mewed our special greeting.

I walked closer he gave me a hug.

PSA (Purr Service Announcement) 

 I, Rocky, recently embarked on an exciting business venture, opening The Catnip Lounge, a hangout for cool cats and kittens! 

Our menu features catnip-infused treats like a bowl of catnip, a catnip banana, and a catnip ball. We also serve snacks for the catnip munchies! 

 Cali got a little carried away, 

She had to show her ID...she became a bit miffed

You’re all cordially invited to join us. Should you overindulge, we’ll provide comfortable accommodations for you to rest and recover. 

Party on, y’all!

❤️ Rocky

Now we would like to share some our favorite 

An Irish limerick by Madi

There once was a cat named Madi
She told all she was no fatty
She jumped high and low
Ran to and fro
Just to prove it was a fib told by the ratty.

Easy Sunday
