Thoroughly Poetic Thursday #79

   Two SPOILED CATS,

Angel Sammy and Teddy find such inspiring photos for us

This is our picture prompt 

Oh did this bring back a true funny story that happened when my daughter was about six this is written in her voice

In the summer of 1976,

my Uncle Greg lived alone**and far away.

He came to our house for supper. 

I didn't want to miss a minute of his visit.

We were outside playing and talking in the yard 'til dark.

All of a sudden, I realized to the loo 

I needed to go

I ran inside, no time

to light up the house.

Quickly to the loo,

I breathed a sigh of relief

I made it w/o an accident.

THEN my itty bitty tushie landed 

in the cold water of the loo.

I hollered with terror

UNCLE Greg you left the

seat UP!!**😱

(Side note:  Uncle Greg was not married at the time, lived alone and evidently rarely put the seat to the loo down.)

Wings on Wordy Wednesday

Dearest Auntie HiC

Mom was enjoying the beautiful hummingbird at the lantana when she noticed something in the background. 

Black snakes are our friends as they keep away mice, rats, and other pests.

Mom didn’t want the black beauty to disturb the hummers, so she escorted him out of the yard. 

We love nature!

Your Nephews, Pup, Kat and Rocky

Auntie and Uncle are in awe times 1 million, at your hummingbird video. Wow wow wow‼️‼️‼️ Your Mom should be a wildlife videographer!!!

Holy macaroni that is a very very very long black snake.  I had no idea mom was a snake whisperer!  Did she use her teacher voice on him?

Happy Tuesday: Feeling Beachy on Marv's Bday

  

Thank you to our 

 Hostess Sandee at Comedy Plus   

This bench (at Logan's) makes me all kinds of HAPPY

For many years I was an avid seeker of shells and sea rocks.  

Here are a few of my bottles of shells.

I especially like the tiny shells.  I have been on a proper shell hunt in years.

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

Have you ever wondered about the 5 slits in a Sand dollar?

The five oblong holes, known as lunules and reflected in the skeletons, let water pass through them to reduce the lifting pressure of the current. The holes also let sand pass through and help them disappear into the bottom faster. When they die and wash ashore, their skeletons become works of art

Any beachcomber who finds Sand Dollars along their stroll considers it a lucky omen! They aren't likely to be found on many beaches, but there are several spots around the United States where you'll find them.

I adore sand dollars.  Thirty + years ago,  I was fortunate to find four whole sand dollars at Atlantic Beach.
