It’s also the 2nd anniversary for our car. I’m remembering many of his birthday celebrations when we were on vacation at the beach or in Scotland to see the tattoo. The fur babies said we need to go out for dinner tonight, so he doesn’t need to cook. I hope everyone has a great day Happy birthday to your DB today. 16 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bennybear Posted August 19 #78 Share Posted August 19 We haven’t been to Toyama but were at the nearby port of Kanazawa which has one of the top gardens in Japan. If you go the top site is nearby Shirakawa Go. It’s a beautiful town in the mountains with thatched roofs. We really enjoyed our visit 27 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was busy planting a strawberry sundae hydrangea and then the garden work snow balls. I will celebrate the galaxy and Coco Chanel and her beautiful designs by sharing a pin I saw she designed. @trivia addict thanks for the heads up, I’ll watch that documentary. So much we don’t know. @JazzyV hope you get some long lasting relief soon! @Seasick Sailor prayers all goes well tomorrow! Fingers crossed for @kazu @ger_77 beautiful lake photos! Brenda, that is a stunning pin. She did some amazing work in spite of her checkered history. I loved the pictures from Japan. Lenda 23 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

marshhawk Posted August 19 #81 Share Posted August 19 Quick note, Munchkin is home, heavily sedated with the cone of shame on her head, poor thing. She is so tiny, and it is so big not sure she can reach food. So Chuck is in with a raised bowl on a silver candy dish, feeding her tuna. I'm off to work. 26 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Her talent cannot be denied. Unfortunately, there is so much history that is only selectively taught to us. I hope you do give the program I mentioned a try. And please post a picture of your strawberry hydrangea. Hydrangeas are my favorite flower! 21 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
USN59-79 Posted August 19 #83 Share Posted August 19 Thanks @bennybear. The next port after Toyama is Kanazawa for us. How did you get to that thatched house village - on your own or on an excursion? Ray 12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bennybear Posted August 20 #86 Share Posted August 20 (edited) @trivia addict thank you! The one I planted today is not flowering yet but I’ll post Some of my others. Some change from white to pink, and then bronze. Quickfire is one of them. We can only grow hardy ones here as we are zone 3. @USN59-79 we did take a HAL tour which was just a bus with drop off. Most of the town is quite small so we just wandered through it. Highly recommend you see it. I will guess it may actually be closer to Toyama. If that’s the case than you may want to visit the beautiful gardens in Kanazawa. Edited August 20 by bennybear 21 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marshhawk Posted August 20 #87 Share Posted August 20 Welcome to @trivia addict, @sterling2 and @Uncle Diluvian! This is the most wonderful place to be on in the entire universe.Except for the Starship Enterprise. The kittens deal with seperation from their mother in different ways. The little female is fine (plus she is a vampire besides being a cat, the little solid black one keeps sticking his paw under her door, and Turnip is attacking everyone, and every thing. Tigger (not her child) sits outside her door and cries. Who knew, Kitty love.She was in heat when she went in for her surgery, and even though he is neutered, I think he has memories.... 17 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quartzsite Cruiser Posted August 20 #89 Share Posted August 20 (edited) Tonight I took my golf cart ride shortly after sunset and could see the moon behind the trees. Just after I got back home, the moon was just rising above the trees. For a few minutes it was beautiful, huge orange ball. Worth being outside even though it was still 95F with no breeze. We justnreceived an excessive heat warning for tonight. It is 92F and feels like 95F. Our overnight low will be 78F about 7am. 4 hours ago, marshhawk said: Quick note, Munchkin is home, heavily sedated with the cone of shame on her head, poor thing.

Annie, I'm glad Munchkin is home and doing well. Way, way back when we had cats and had them spayed and neutered, vets never used the cone of shame. Somehow, the all survived unscathed.
