Consider Yourself Mooned!

This is what was waiting for us about 9:30 last night. The moon looks like it's partially gone, but it was obscured by whispy clouds that didn't photograph. It was absolutely beautiful. The pictures are posted in order of how they were taken. Otter was the photographer.

The coyotes agreed, we could hear them a few times.

But then they might have just been talking to Toadles.

He has that affect on animals sometimes.

We had a great visit. He called me Friday about 11:30, he was in McAlester which is a couple of hours south. He was calling from there to tell me that he'd taken a side trip and was sightseeing. The reason he was sightseeing is that he thought that SINCE HE'D TAKEN A WRONG TURN, he might as well explore a place he'd never been before. He arrived about 2:00. When I got home about 3:00, he was in his usual position - snoozing on the couch. After he woke up, he told me that he'd taken one more wrong turn, when he thought he was turning into my neighborhood. But he was a little short of the correct street. However, he figured it out right away.

We had a great visit, we went flea marketing Saturday and found a few things. Among other things, I got a $3.00 piece of Fenton so it was a sucessful venture. We also had to go train hunting for Toadles and found several. We went train hunting yesterday as well, we didn't find as much but it was fun. We basically got in the car and headed south on the highway, since we had a very general idea of where something was. We enjoyed his visit. I hope he remembered his way home!

Otter is now planning something. Uncle Toadly woke her up yesterday morning. With an ice cube, to the belly button! Then she returned the favor this morning. I'm not sure what the next step will be, but they will both have something to attempt to put over on each other. I'm just going to get out of the way! :)

Maggie was thinking about a Monday post, but that was before the hole behind the bamboo barrier was discovered. The beagle-sized hole. Which might have taken out a bamboo sprout, we're not sure. But the rest of the bamboo is doing great. It's spreading out and looks pretty healthy. But the dogsters are probably not going to have much access to the back yard for a while. At least, not unsupervised visitation! Maggie might get to post again next week. Maybe.
