Turtle alert !!

Last weekend, my hubbage got all excited that a box turtle had chosen to visit our backyard.  Screaming 'TURTLE ALERT!!!  Get your camera!!!!!!!!!!!!'

Got the camera.

Here's the turtle:


Here's the turtle thinking deep thoughts:

We have a lot of turtles around here, and this time of year they're attempting to cross roads and highways.  So far, I've saved two turtles by hitting the brakes at just the right time.

Turtle lives matter.

The Tuesday Song of the Week

This past Sunday afternoon, my hubs and I attended a concert by a group called The Seven Sopranos.  They sing mostly opera with a show tune shoe-horned in here and there.

Most of what they sang, I'd heard before, but not the following:

Rossini's Cat Duet - Kiri Te Kanawa and Norma Burrows

MORE antiques and untiques

Just a few, but lots more will be coming...


1970s kitty pen holder
Will also hold a pencil or a PixyStix.

VERY appealing Mid-Century Modern planter, by the most unlikely maker... SOLD
 i. e. McCoy
================================================================

This is something SUPER BEAUTIFUL     SOLD
From around 1890, made of cardboard (!) and still in pretty awesome condition. 
========================================================================

I'm sure you're aware that those conservative size 12 shoes in your closet are kinda boring.

What you need is something like these:     SOLD
