Beethoven (left) and Cabela stand guard every time we venture out on the patio. This evening, all the critters were out and about just before the rain, Thunder and lightning are in the area. Everybody is alert and on guard. Click on the image to enlarge.
The Obama Campaign using Soptic’s “Romney gave my wife cancer” crap isn’t the first, nor will it be the last outright lie to be used this election season. Ramirez’ “Taking the bull by the horns” cartoon shows a pretty good analysis of what happened and when. Click the ‘toon to enlarge.
We stepped out a while ago to take the dogs for a little walk. On our way down to the road, we saw lightning and heard thunder from this cell west of us. One of these days, I’m going to get lucky and snap the shutter just as a bolt of lightning is visible. You can see the rainfall in the distance behind the big (new to us) saguaro outside the courtyard. Click on the image to enlarge.
Most folks out there consider today to be “TGIF” day, but to us, it’s just another grueling day of retirement in our dream home. Damsel took this photo today after we finished walking the dogs, which seems to be one of the more important chores in retired life. Click on the image to enlarge.
When the landscaping crew installed the replacement saguaro today, our two miniature pinchers (Cabela and Beethoven) were totally concerned about the activity going on out front. I snapped this photo of them atop the love seat while the work was in progress. Click on the image to enlarge.
We went out on the patio last evening and I saw something yellow on the cholla across the RV drive to the west. I thought it was a cholla flower, but it’s really late in the flowering season for new buds. But, there it was.
I looked for flowers on the other cholla on the property and could not see any. I also looked for more buds on this cholla and, likewise, found none. This one flower is very pretty, though. Click on the image to enlarge.
The latest meme in O-land is for Harry Reid to lie and Nancy Pelosi to swear to it. With the economy and jobs market still in shambles, the Administration has no choice but to create diversionary tactics. They certainly cannot run on their record on ANY topic.
OK so if Romney shows his tax records, will Obama show his university transcripts?
