My Appointed Rounds

Rain, rain and more rain. I'm unable to complete my appointed rounds. It is very boring. There was a small break so I was checking out the area from my favorite spot on the balcony railing. Then, it started to rain again, so I had to get down. I complained about the rain to the lady AGAIN and she did nothing. She's worthless.

This, That and the Other

Well, it has been raining steadily since Friday. There are no new photos of me, but here are a couple from last week and a few weeks ago.





On Friday, the lady went with some friends to the Cambria Christmas Market held on the grounds of the Cambria Pines Lodge. This is the first year for the event which started right after Thanksgiving and ends today. There were gorgeous lights strung everywhere. The lady took some photos with her itty bitty camera. If you click on the link above (Cambria Christmas Market) you will see a slide show at the top of the page that has some really nice photos of the lights. It was raining on the night the lady went, so most of the photos she took did not turn out very well. But, the rain kept a lot of people away, so it wasn't too crowded.

She'll Never Give Up

I'm starting to come to terms with the fact that the lady will never give up trying to take photos of me. Today she resorted to trying to get me to sniff the camera (wasn't interested). She then rubbed it on me as if she was brushing me (oh, puh-leeze).

Her latest photog tactics include slightly crouching, lowering the camera, pointing it in my general vicinity and hoping for the best. The first four of those photos were nothing but black blurs as I moved around, but then she got a few decent ones. Finally, she sat in MY chair, slowly lowered the camera and got two photos of my face.

I'm resigned to my fate.

The Sun Came Out Today

It was rainy and cold on Saturday, Sunday, and yesterday. So when the sun came out today, I was very happy. I checked out a few things and then took a little rest under my chair.

This morning at 7:15 a.m.


I've got to see what's what.


Just below my miniature garden. Looking up the hill to check for interlopers.


I turned my face away just before the lady took the photo (what a surprise)
