The previous weekend, and for about 10 days in a row, we had warm sunshine and free time to spend in the yard. This was delightful for me, Steve, and the cats.
Julius follows me around the garden as I water my plants and the lawn. He likes to drink from the puddles that collect on the flagstones.
Portia doesn't want to get so involved in gardening activities. She'll be sunning herself nearby on the pavement, or on the porch roof to oversee my efforts. Or perhaps she'll sneak up on me, pounce my ankles, and hop away. On such warm weekend afternoons,
Arragon might be outside as well, cautiously being curious while hoping for attention, but he's more likely to be sleeping in the sunbeams on our bed.
On Sunday, I was picking fresh flowers for the vase on my patio table. When removing the older bouquet, I saw a little frog sitting in the vase! I showed Steve, but not the cats, because I would like Frog to stick around.
