Camping Revisited.

After all the excitement of the Film Festival, The Fuzz thought it might be nice to take the bike up to the mountains for a few hours.  But more rain put a damper on that.  So instead, in the desperate search for blog material,  he would revisit the recent Camping Trip.

And since Kinda Fuzzy is supposed to be about the "little things of daily life," we'll look at something little.

In this case, moss!

Whilst Our Fuzz was up at Set Rock Creek, he noticed this bit of moss growing in it's own Natural Planter.  Not being one to miss a pix*, he got a couple to share.

It was just one of those little things that are so cool when you stumble upon them.

The Fuzz is improving slowly since his trip down the stairs.  For a while he kept making "bad moves" and re-injuring the arm and shoulder.  It is still rather sore at times, but he is starting to be able to raise it over his head now.  This is good since there are a few projects waiting for him.  But it looks like he'll still have to take it a bit easy for a few more days.

But we stay busy.  It kinda makes one wonder what one did before retirement.

*Aren't digital cameras great?  Back in the days, The Fuzz could never afford the film to take all these pix!

Cool Bug

Whilst we was out workin' at the trailer, we saw this Cool Bug.

Here's another look.

Bugs are weird.
Sometimes I just can't believe their colors and all.
This one's not real colorful, but still interesting.
And then there was this one.

It probably seems that The Fuzz was pretty bored here, but I assure you, this was not the case. We have been quite busy out there.
We do anticipate a break later this week when it will be time for the 2009, Real to Reel Film Festival*!
So if things seem just a bit slow around here, it's just that we're out there getting a bit of Cinamatical Culture.

Bugged

Found these guys all over the well the other day.

I don't really know what they are though. I mean I know they're Bugs but I don't know their name. They are kinda pretty, for bugs, I mean.
They don't seem to Bite, which is good of course. Getting bit is no fun.
But there are a lot of them, at least on the well.
Here's some on the Bucket.

See what I mean about a Bunch of 'em.

Rain

It's been dry here, but just lately we've gotten a bit of much needed Rain. When The Fuzz finally got up this morning, he found this stuff in the wheelbarrow.
A couple nights ago, whilst The Fuzz was out of town at the Home of a Famous University, the home place received almost an inch of that good stuff.
But last night, as the lightning flashed and the thunder rolled, we were blessed with almost 2in of that rain so necessary for the Garden and Well.
You will note the high level of water in this Spiffy Rain Gauge, Yankee Sister sent. The red tape about halfway up is at 1in. The arrow shows where we're at here. Much more and it would be off the scale. This is Good.
And since we're on the subject of moisture now, The Fuzz would like to share these dewdrops he found out there one morning. After all, this blog is about the "little things of daily life".

Some of Those Little Things

Those "Little Things". That's what this blog is supposed to be about, isn't it ?
So here are some Little Things of Daily Life.

This is some Peaches, or what will be some peaches if things work out.

The Frost didn't get them this year, at least not yet. There is supposed to be a chance for it tomorrow night, but it might not amount to anything.

And here's some more. This time it's Apples, or in this case, an Apple.

Actually there are more than one. If you look close, there are some more on the left.

This year the trees were covered with blooms, so maybe we'll get some fruit.

A few years ago, they didn't even bloom. The Fuzz had never seen anything like that, and said so. I don't remember his exact words, but they were something to that effect. But this year is better.



And last but not least, a nameless little kitty cat.



Something seems to to be a bit different on this Blogger Place today. The Fuzz is hoping it will work OK.

So here's hoping.

Christmas Cont.....

Since it is actually still Christmas, here's a few Cat Toys from the Tree.


Hope y'all had a great Christmas.


And a Happy New Year

Bugged

Took a walk "Down the Hill" the other day. I was confronted with this thing.It doesn't seem dangerous, though. It is truly amazing how complex it is. All those fuzzy things sticking out all over the place. Note the little red spots on what I guess is the back. And then there's the brush stuff, is it some sort of "Mohawk" ? Well I couldn't resist, so now he (or she) is part of the cybornetical world.

Well, if all goes well, The Fuzz and His Sweetie will take Young Daughter to the Renaissance Festival tomorrow. There is suposed to be a race down that way, and we could get the "Full Treatment" traffic wise. His Sweetie has worked out an alternant route home, and they'll see how it works out.

Kitty Cat Family Reunion

You may recognize the orange one as that famous kitten, Puddin' himself. The newbies are his sisters, Split, and Two Face.
It would seem that Angora, the Wild One, is a better mother than we had been led to believe. My Sweetie was poking around and happened to see these two with her. When she approached, the crazy Wild One took off, and these took cover under a pile of stuff that had accumulated in the corner where I try to work on stuff that breaks. There's a lot of stuff that breaks. If the truth be know, I'm not only Kinda Fuzzy, but Kinda Messy also.
And so they were rousted out and brought into the house. Now instead of hiding under a pile of stuff, they hide under the furniture. They don't seem to be scared of people per se. The theory is that if we keep them with us (people), they might not be so wild as their momma. I guess time will tell. Puddin' seems to like them OK, but I don't know if they realize they're kin. They will have to get used to a new diet though. These two are furrier, more like their momma. So, now there are even more Little Things than we realized.

More Little

Things were a little slow today, so I pulled this fellow out of the past. Actually I'm not real sure if it's a "Fellow" or something else. How do you tell with these things anyhow ? But "he" is little.
The kids are out of school now. The days are getting long. Why is "Midsummer's Day" the first day of summer ? Why isn't it in the middle ? Why do I even think about these things ? Is this all some plot by "Them" to mess with us, like Daylight Saving Time ? Who is "Them" any way ? Is "Them" the same ones as the "They" that say all those things ? Will "They" come and get me for asking all these dumb questions ?
Am I just getting paranoid here ?

Puny Things

Some more of Little Things. This is actually a Sunflower. I know, Sunflowers are supposed to be big and all, but this one isn't. This one is located in the area beneath our little Bird Feeder. It would seem the little birdies some times waste some of that expensive Birdie Food. I used to get the stuff that had all the different kinds of seeds all together. But the little twerps would throw bunches of it out to get to their favorites. This would make me very upset. I couldn't decide weather to stop feeding 'em, or just to shoot the little things. Finally I realized that they mostly ate the sunflower seeds, so now I just get them. But the Birdies are a bit clumsy at times, and some still hits the ground where it sprouts. The ground here is not real good, and there is a lot of shade, so all we get is these puny little things.
