Animal Crackers - Blessed with Summer Rain

Howdy - 

We are blessed with some Summer showers! Green in July is a rare thing here! It's mostly weeds growing but hey its green weeds! LOL This coming week they are calling for some pretty heavy rain. Hoping we get some of that. So far we have just been getting light showers, but very happy with those! The boys are loving their green and the lower temps! Its been in the lower 90's so much cooler than normal! 

We came through the gate and found Cocoa drinking over the fence stealing water from the boys tank. I guess water on the other side is better? Kind of like grass is always better?

Hubby has to make sure and feed the boys hay farther in the pen than her use to. She is tall enough she will stretch into the pen over  then fence and take their hay if she can.... Funny old girl!

Found Valentine closer up by the house standing in some weeds. My lumpy big boy! 

Still can't get over green weeds in JULY!

Teddy came in for a close up and lots of ear scratches. He is such a sweet guy. Man he is turning so grey though! His face use to be all brown! But it is a distinguished good looking grey! 

Coming through the back gate I had to ask Grey Beard to back up he was blocking the gate and I couldn't get in the yard. I got a meow... then a yawn. I think I had disturbed an afternoon nap. He is such a sweet guy especially for an outside feral kitty!

Like his Momma.... Now she is very skittish! She is getting much better. Heck she actually stayed still while I snapped a photo of her within 10 feet! But as I stepped into the yard - she was gone!

If you are wondering why she is laying next to a tool here.... Hubby had to work on the Jeep this afternoon. Battery went dead.... sigh. Always something isn't it? 

Hope you enjoyed this week - have a Animal Crackers Smile. Enjoy a furry friend where you are! 

HUGS and

Yay, Teddy with those sweet eyes! Grey Beard is a handsome cat as well as his mama. Enjoy the weather! How special this time of year. Hugs, Lori K

Why is it that men look distinguished when they go grey and women just look old?
Teddy is such a handsome man.
Glad you have had rain.
If you want some more you can have some of ours.
It is so cold here in Kangaroo Land.
I’ve have been having Artic winds as well.
All your babies are beautiful.
Thank you
