Who Let The Cold In ?

Wow. What a change, Yesterday and today the wind blew and temp. dropped to 69. I know that doesn't seem cold but I was just starting to get used to the 80's. At least the sun is shining. My walk this morning was rather brisk. Only did the mile as Eileen had to stop and use her puffer. ( I know, very weak excuse ) Yesterday we worked on the yard. Watered the shrubs and cleaned up the palm fronds. Even the discards seem to root and grow in the back of the lot. Wish I could take home some of the baby pineapple plants and "mother-in-law tongues" that are growing wild . Must be about 100 , looking green and lush in the refuse pile. Eileen is off to the hairdresser and I am here with all the cats. 2 house cats and this morning I counted 11 outside, between here , the neighbours, and under my van. Eileen puts food outside for the wild cats as well. A white one looks rather chubby so expect she will be adding to the population again. Wish I had a camera to put pictures on the computer, cause the cats are really cute. Still haven't seen the local alligator, and we are two streets from the lake , so it/ they don't come out this far. Thank goodness.
