introducing..

P1010038  Mr. Wild and Wooley himself.. ‘spider boy’ Sam making his debut.. Bu and Zak are still trying the if I don’t see him, he’s really not there approach.  I think Zak is secretly terrified.  Bu is sure that when the 15 yr. old nephew leaves, so will this and life will again settle in to normalcy.

P1010042 there’s an awful lot of this going on..

P1010043  lots, see what I’m talking about.  A new holding area is behind the existing structure

P1010032_1 not enough of this has been going on (that IS Tivoli), however hours have been spent on this raft during the past couple days, poling out and dropping the rake (which is attached to the winch on the back of the tractor) in order to remove the chara fromthe bottom of the swimming area.  This is really hard work, heavy, dirty, slimy, smelly, HARD WORK.  But, it gets rid of baggy arms really fast. I’m looking good.

and I leave you with this ominous shot, for here in the Kingdom,  9I saw this August 1st. but I couldn’t bring myself to look at it and walked around it for two days)

P1010041

ohh.. I just can’t go there now.

    Awww…how cute Sam is!! I have noticed with my black cat, that in all his pictures, he looks possessed with those yellow eyes!!
    I can’t bear to look at that fallen leave!!

  2. Oh, that adorable pointed little chin Sam has. That little slinky body – he’s so cute.
    Hmmm… it’s raining here – and cool. Reminds me of fall. Reminds me that there are many things I still want to do this summer. Better get to them.

  3. I’m in love with the cat. Seriously in love. He’s beautiful!
    The leaf…well…I’m north of you, I think. And that leaf is just plain scaring me, is all.

    uhhhhhhhh….yay fall? I guess I remain an outlier. (Beautiful kitty!)

  5. I can honestly say that I am looking forward to fall……..it’s been too darn hot this summer. Fall means Rhinebeck :-))) I can wait for winter though….

  6. Last year at our golf tourney the leaves had just begun their change. It was two weeks later, however. I’m ready for a change in the heat but not for cold days.
    Cute Sam!

  7. Spider boy is so damn cute!!!!!!The leave is stunning….
