Sneaking in a Post

Yeah…I did say I wasn’t blogging, and really, I’m not. Consider this a figment of your imagination. I just wanted to share a few pictures. We’re just hanging out and relaxing. That bad cat, Sadie, isn’t with us. She managed to hide in a spot from which we could not retrieve her just a few minutes before we planned to load her into the camper. We waited for a couple of hours, and she wouldn’t come down. We left her with plenty of food and water, self-dispensing kitty treats, and a self-cleaning litter robot, and she’ll be fine while we’re gone. That just means Smitty has to do the work of two cats on this trip: twice the snuggling, a whole can of cat food to himself, the whole catio in which to rest his weary bones. It’s a hard job, but he’s holding his own.

We arrived on the Fourth of July. This is the view of the lake from our site.

We took a little walk around. Here are some of the blooming things we saw.

There were fireworks over the lake (a pretty good show!) on the Fourth. We watched through the trees.

Of course, I baked a cherry pie for two. Isn’t it sort of required on the Fourth?

We didn’t put the boat in the water until the next day.

It’s been cloudy and cool in the mornings, but the sun comes out after lunch. We’re expecting weather like this all week. We’ve been here when it rained the whole time, and when it was really hot, so this weather seems very nice.

Hope you had a good Fourth. But, honestly, I’m not blogging. So pretend you didn’t see this, and sew on.
