*************************************************************

Welcome to  Caturday art hosted by Athena
See more Caturday Cat Art HERE.

Mom and Dad took a 
Road Trip on Tuesday 11/14/17
They had been  wanting to go for several days but kept waiting for a bright
sunny morning so they could enjoy the leaves along Highway 50 to
Cedar Creek Gallery in Creedmoor, NC. However, each day was dreary with no sun until
late afternoon if at all.  



It was a dreary and cold morning the Gallery had a roaring fire started
Look at that beautiful brickwork and all the pottery


Adorable and unique critter clocks

There is an atrium in the middle of the gallery where bamboo grows like a weed too

Here are some real works of art they saw while browsing.
Mom would have loved to have each of these adorable statues
Armored Pig Bank...that was too funny







 They were getting ready for their Christmas open house which is Today

Look at all the beautiful glass blown ornaments


BUT the main reason the peeps too this trip was for the pumpkins.
Mid October there was a huge pumpkin show.  The peeps wanted to go but they
couldn't get there.  We are a pumpkin lovin' family.
Thank goodness some of the glass pumpkins were still for sale

This one now lives at our house!!

Mol when Mom downloaded the photos she noticed she took a selfie

A good time was had by the peeps and good news is they got home well with time to
feed this Diva her 3rd mini breakfast of the day

Berry Flower Friday and a Freaky Friend

We got nuttin' blooming here at Madi Manor but mom did find some berry purrty
berries and two purple posies for Rosy's Flower Friday.




Before mom retired from Physics she rec'd this crazy bird at a gift exchange.
It is a physics toy. You put a bowl of water in front of him, give him an itty bitty 

kitty whap upside his plastic head tap. 
 Eventually his keeps moving forward until he goes beak first into the water.
Physicists are a fun bunch for sure

Thoroughly Poetic Thursday


Angel Sammy and brudder Teddy

Today's 4 word challenges are
window, wink, worry wiggle





Today's Poem title is
From my Window
subtitle: You birds better be glad I'm a house cat
by Madison D. Cat 


From my window I spy
birds galore and chippers. 
And of course the nasty squirrels who destroy Dad's 
planters and make him cry.
Often to my surprise and glee my friend the red
Cardinal wink(s) at me as he chows down on sunflower
seeds and suet without a worry.
Me thinks he might not realize a fierce cat I be.
The tiny chickadee is quick to take seed in a flurry.
The chippers are by far the best at scurrying.
The robin and his misses on the ground do roam.
They hop and skip about, their single mission is to quickly find
a worm that wiggles to take home.

Wordless Wednesday and Pantry caper





Note from Mom
Yesterday I mentioned  someone being in solitary confinement in the Pantry...
Madi told me to tell you why but I didn't so here is the rest of the story.
Since I was not a part of the event, Madi will tell you:


One night last week, Dad got up about 11:30 pm because someone had a nice hairball.
He went to the kitchen for a towel...the moi producer of said hairball might have followed him into the kitchen.  (He was not wearing his glasses) He opened the pantry to throw the evidence away and says  Moi must have slipped in the pantry. I was there until 6 am the next day..............YEP....and evidently happy a clam because I didn't make a sound until I heard the peeps get up. Then I raised the roof.  And might I add no accidents in the pantry.  Mom thinks I must have slept in the paper recycle bin.

Tuesday Tale

First of all a round of aPAWs for the gorgeous photo of the leaves and blue sky!!
Dad took this on 11/10/17.  He rarely takes photos but he does have a very artsy eye for what makes a good photo!!

**********************************

Secondly...mom came into the master bath on 11/11/17...she saw me HERE!!
You will not believe what she asked me, I quote
"Madi are you a K9"?  
I  replied ignored her, "What is the big deal, I'm all huddle in front of the heating vent."
Well the answer is this is a new habit of mine. 
Evidently the only family pet to ever do this was Toto the might mini Dachshund

She says Milky-Way the feline BM (Before Madi) never did this.
I reminded her that she is in uncharted waters with me.
I'm the oldest kitty to live here E V E R!  Not to mention this is a might plush and comfy
rug.  If I'm to be truthful, I have acquired some new habits of late.  Not sure why but
it is fun to blow the mind mind of mom every so often?
I recently spent way too much time in solitary confinement in the pantry.
There are NO photos...but there was lots of audio.  Just sayin'
