Friday Evening Post
Good evening.
I forgot to mention one of the best parts of the Abigail movie was a dance scene set to Danzig's "Blood and Tears" song.

I may be back by now, but who knows? My current theme for Thursday evening gifs is chaos.

Hear the sweet cuckoo
Through the big bamboo thicket
The full moon filters.

It's a lazy summer evening. I've got my hammock, my faithful bunny companion, and dinner plans that include corn on the cob, a veg dog with zucchini relish, and watermelon. 🍉
How's it going in the rest of the village?
The Gallery
It’s your weekly Photo Gallery! Come on in, take a look at what people have been up to over the past week and share some of your own photos.
They don’t need to be taken with a fancy camera or works of art. Share any SFW photos you’ve taken with even the poorest of potatoes. Of course we love to see that arty stuff too.

Sunday evening 🎡T
I was just reading an article about people's end of summer wish lists and realized I haven't been on a fair ride in a while. If I get back in time, I might think about going to the Canadian National Exihibition (aka the CNE, aka the Ex). It's crazy busy, though. I like ferris wheels ect, crowds not so much.
I checked one thing off my summer list this week: I finally went on a trail I'd been meaning to visit and never got around to (I took the cover photo on the walk.) I've gone swimming in the Atlantic and in a lake, had Moon Mist ice cream, been to the beach, and made a t-shirt, so I've done many of the things I meant to do this summer.
How about you? Anything you've done or plan to do this summer?

Fur Face Friday!
Hi all, another Friday is upon us. Somehow we are already more than halfway through August, which is worrying. But what better way to distract from the inexorable march of time than with Fur Faces!
Last week we had a bevy of good pets, so let's pick some winners (they are all winners though)
First up we've got Bindi, experimenting with the magic of moving pictures:

Sunday mis-posted OT
Good evening!
Not much going on here. Might go out late tonight to watch the meteor shower. It should be peaking and the weather looks good.

Fur Face Friday
Hello and welcome to Fur Face Friday, where we endeavor to get through this thing called life with a healthy dose of cute endorphins. Last week we had the cutie-lympics. This week we’re highlighting special guest furfaces.
Mimi’s neighbor Mowgli came bounding into our lives to great effect...
