WCB: When Travel Plans Go Awry.
I packed my bags and had my passport ready to fly to Switzerland, to visit Rosa, Fridolin, and Maruschka. Then I found out that Rosa is hosting Weekend Cat Blogging and I can only visit her at Rosa's Yummy Yums. Oh well, one can still dream. Things are pretty boring here and I could use a nice vacation. Here I am with the Mexican sage that's growing in the backyard.
It doesn't do much for me--no jolt to the system like catnip. I need something to mellow me out. We now have 4 squirrels in the house. It never ends. Where's the tequila?
Go over to Rosa's blog and see what's happening there!
poor Upsie.....does he wanna come to MN and play with Bustopher and Harmon? We just have funny squirrels in our yard, not our house.
Are you fostering more lil' ones?

Aaawww, Upsie has such a resigned look on her face. Adorable. I think the Mexican Sage goes very well with her fur.

Upsie, if your mum and dad lets you, you can always come visit me in the Channel Islands!
... and bring some Mexican sage with you, please?

Does Upsie know how cute she looks in the flowers? Because if I didn't know better I'd swear she was posing.
And isn't it time for a squirrel update?

Sher,
Thank you for all you do for the baby squirrels. Those flowers are lovely and really offset Upsie's beautiful fur.

Four more squirrels! I bet you're tired! It was tiring raising baby birds, so I'm betting squirrel-ettes are running you ragged! So glad you're helping them out. Be sure and check out my sister's blog for an update and more awesome animal photos.
Your garden still looks like summer compared to the sodden mess of the Pacific Northwest. I just now dumped my sad tomato vines and am mourning the end of the warm weather. Speaking of which, anything interesting I can do with a bunch of green tomatoes apart from frying them up?

Upsie's so sweet! I'm sure that Maruschka and Fridolin would be pleased to meet her...
