    On the way home tonight, I started to think I was seeing things.

    Is that for sale? 'Cause I could happily live with that image. And I really need to join the Cloud Appreciation Society while I am at it... wonderful sky shots all round.

    Okororie Hot Springs near Tirau

    wow, thanks Geoff, trippy time warp for me. We used to live in Okoroire Road in Tirau.. don't remember those gorgeous hot pools, just the tearooms and the Friday night trips to Putaruru for fish and chips and oysters.

    The sadness at the end is worth it for all the comfort, joy and sheer entertainment they give us the rest of their lives.

    I hope you have lots of lovely photos - her green eyes are just wonderful. I found this pic yesterday amidst a bunch of photos... a comforting hug.

    One of mum's cats, Muffin. Turned up on the doorstep and became royalty.

    And if my photoshop skills were better, I would reply to Jonathon with Catster and a pic of a Buddy Holly bespectacled puss!

    Those Maine Coons sure know how to strike a captivating pose... wonderful.

    Nora, my lovely stripey boy was a bengal. Sadly, I had to give him away (long story with multiple leaps from first floor apartments) but he's a rat catcher in a barn now and very happy.

    For when the boys come home from overseas
    And they gaze on homeland scenes,
    Then God help those sons-of-bitches,
    The United States marines.

    Thanks for this Geoff. My grandfather was a US Marine. I don't know the full story but this is one version to insert in the family history.

    Heh. From the balcony of my old place in North Sydney I remember counting nearly 40 of the buggers during the ‘season’.

    Saw this the other day on why so many jacarandas in Sydney: "the true ''mothers'' of thousands of jacaranda trees in the shire were Sister Marg Haxton and her successor Sister Beryl Alice Mullins of the maternity ward at Jacaranda Hospital, Woolooware, who gave saplings to every new mother in the late 1940s, '50s and '60s. But the practice was also common on the north shore, with the Royal North Shore, the Mater, Ryde Hospital and two hospitals in Mosman handing out jacarandas to new mothers for the better part of last century"
