the neighborhood update

Yes, it's back-to-school doggie! We (my workmates and I) figure next month will be Halloween doggie, and then we will have pilgrim doggie, followed by Santa doggie. I do wonder what the people think when I stop and take a picture.

I found 38 cents on Tuesday walking home from work, and this morning I saw a man carrying cat food followed by two black and white cats following him down the road to the boat ramp. He looked a bit like the pied piper. I've seen them stalking gophers on the high school lawn before (the cats that is, not their caretaker). And coming home from work they (the cats) seemed to be snuggled in the sun in some abandoned raised garden beds next to the school buildings.
I do enjoy the walk, driving and even bicycling you seem to miss the details of life.

Artemis, and rtemis are back in the water, giving us much viewing interruptions at the shop. We track whether they get towed out, and how and if they sail into Seaplane Lagoon. Not much gets by our collective shop eyes.
