INTERESTING SKIES...A CAT NAMED TULIP...RAISING A FLAG POLE

Ray bringing over his 40 foot flag pole from home

I wish I had been out there when he was coming up river in his little 16 foot boat

Remembering my Mom on Mother's Day

It is hard to believe she has not been with us for 14 years

I made myself a lemon pie for Mother's Day

Since our children were not here I decided to spoil myself

My Mom taught me how to make a pie just before I was married

Slipping through the fog

Spotted a few deer on a walk around the island

Joe and I went to the Humane Society to check out  cats

We spent an hour in the 'cat room'

There were 3 cats that I had the lady take out of their cage

In and out

In and out

It was so hard to make a decision

There was Clara

There was Morgan

There was Tulip

Tulip purred and purred and purred

She really wanted to be out of her cage

Finally we decided..........

TULIP

Only one more day and Tulip will join the gang

Ohhhh....the clouds were rolling in

WELL................

The day Tulip was to have her last check-up was not the best day for us or for her

The Vet brought a 'new' Technician with her

The Technician was holding Tulip too tight

Tulip did not like that and scratched the Technician

Tulip had to stay at the Humane Society for

TEN DAYS

IN QUARANTINE

I went to visit Tulip

The fishermen have arrived

A couple enjoying themselves on the River Snye

My first visit to the pond

Looks like this fellow is having lunch

Off to Windsor

Many different cloud formations during our drive

See the Sea Horse????

See the gorilla????

Dinner at Sue's

Sue gave the girls a plant called

Asplenium Crispy Waves............. good for your health and for a better indoor climate

THANKS SUE

(I see tonight that there are a few bites out of the plant)

Not good

Tulip????????

Stopped by the pond on our way home from Windsor

Oh boy
This is exciting
The flag pole is going to be raised

'Dig' the haircut!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I wonder if this is a Toronto hair style?

Joe trying to get an extra rope off the pole

The crew!!!!!

Canada flag

Ontario flag

Our flag pole looks really really small ha ha

Flying the British Columbia flag

I was talking to Rod on the phone when this one went by

Had to drop the phone and grab the camera

We have had the craziest weather

It has rained and rained and rained

It has also been 

CHILLY

As I type this we are now having beautiful warm breezy weather

YEAH

The big day has arrived

Ten days are up!!!!!!

We kept telling Gwennie and Bing about Tulip 

I don't think they care 

ha ha ha

My Mother's chair

I was down to Chatham on Monday

Stopped on my way down and back

I found this bird to be very interesting

It was fluttering over the water

I had to take a second look as I first thought there were 2 birds

but it is a reflection

Stretching

Ah...................

There it is

My favourite freighter

This is the first I have seen the Roger Blough this season

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

I am off to Chatham again tomorrow

Wonder what will be waiting for me at the pond

Sounds silly but I get excited when approaching the pond
