We have been having problems with a raccoon trying to sneak up during the night to eat the dog food I leave out. I know, 'don't leave it out', I agree. However, the other morning the cat was making a strange noise like cats do and this is what I saw. Poor raccoon, trapped !! I guess the dog finally got tired and his friend escaped. It hasn't been back since so maybe getting caught up in a tree was for the best. He looked at me like he felt SO helpless.
These carp were at a local boat dock. Fish food was the cause of all this commotion. A catfish or two even made an appearance.
Wish I could report that the lovely new deck is all finished and the house power washed and both of them stained. Can't say that though.....sigh....may be Christmas at this rate.
Have been spinning more cotton. And now Penny on the Spindler/Charkha list is responsible for my having to learn how to make double decrease squares to make a cotton top. Her pictures are so lovely. I had not thought I was much interested in small sections of knitting joined together. Most of the entrelac things don't do much for me. Guess I just needed for the right picture of the right fabric in a garment that captured my attention to come up. So, Penny has caused me to print out bunches of mitre pages and to not get anything done on projects I need to finish first. It seems so difficult to just stay with one thing till it's finished. So much more entertaining to go with whatever grabs my attention. That's the fun of it!
