I made two new friends on my walk today, both of them four-footed. The first was the black cat you'll see below. She came running across the street to see me, rolled over to be petted and promptly bit me. A little later in my walk I heard a loud meowing and looked up to see a cat on the roof of an apartment building. We chatted a few minutes and I assured him it looked like he could easily get down. He seemed disbelieving and I started to get a little worried. I wandered around the building and knocked on a couple of doors but no one answered. Finally as I was trying to figure out if I could climb up there, a guy came out and asked if he could help me. I pointed out the cat and explained that I was worried he couldn't get down. He said the cat belonged to someone in the neighboring building and was up there all the time. Thus assured, I continued on my walk feeling only slightly silly. Given that my cats meow like they are being murdered when nothing is wrong, I should have realized the cat was fine and just figured I looked like a gullible human.
I also went to a new library today! The
Arcade library is a nice branch and I found a movie and a couple of good books. They have a nice computer room set-up and I liked the way you walk down into the entrance.

Just some bare trees I saw. I thought they looked nice.

Lots of camellia bushes are blooming all over. These are two pretty ones.

This was kind of like walking through a forest. It's hard to tell from the picture but you feel kind of isolated from the street when you walk through this area.

Isn't she pretty!

I posted a picture of these trees when they were full of leaves. They are really pretty now with the branches bare. I thought the color on them was beautiful.
