and orange

and ones that look really mean

and Fat boys

                                                  and custom bikes

The Cat store

To say Dwight doesn't hate my cats might be a little on the optimistic side. He's never mean to them, but he won't feed them or cuddle or play with them. To be fair, there are 6 of them. I started with Lauren's cat Vixie-who gave birth. I adopted "Dot" and Lauren was unable to find a home forDot's litter mate "Hitler".  I wasn't too worried-I had miss Dot fixed along with Vixie and all was well. Until Hilter gave birth. Her first littler this year was early in the spring. I found kittens that didn't make it but I didn't find all the bodies-and "Willie" appeared as a half grown kitten. Some idiot told me that I needed to wait until she stopped nursing to have her fixed-wrong, she delivered another litter-and now we have Munchkin and Midnight. Who are adorable, but are on the look out for a good home along with Willie and Hitler.But as it stands now, there are 6 cats at the house. All of them stay outside(sometimes Vixie sneaks into the basement to do a little cleaning). So Dwight is pretty patient-or he was until he saw a bill for a litte over fifty dollars at the Cat-O store. What in the world did I buy for the cats at the Cat-o store? I had to really think for a minute there. Then it came to me-the store is not the Cat-o store it's the Cato store (prononunced Kay-toe) where I bought a couple of shirts for work. The cats will just have to run around in their birthday suits.

Hobby

I have a new hobby-well an old hobby that the hubby and  I got back into-and believe it or not-it does NOT involve my beloved Pinterest. Hubster has set a 55 gallon aquarium-and he is still experimenting with fish in it and I have a much, much smaller aquarium. Mine is for the night time. I have a blue light and fish that "glow" in the dark. I would take pictures and  post them but I can't take pictures of things in the water that come out clearly. Especially tiny quickly moving things so you'll just have to take my word on it-they were a live when I left this morning and this is what is in my tank.

and a snail for cleaning.

Sunday Hawk Creek Falls

Today we went for a ride down Hwy 7

and this was my view but we stopped at Hawk Creek Falls so I got to see this

and this

 

and some pretty views of the mountains too

Then we added 3 tequila sunrise guppies to my fish tank and a clown loach, an angel fish, and a blue gourami to Dwight's tank.

again...

I know I posted this picture 4 years ago, but I'd do it all again. Happy 4th Anniversary Dwight.
These last 4 years have been incredible.

Biker Education

Growing up riding to Middle School on I bike, I thought I understood something about motorcycles. There are a few terms my dad never used in front of me or that I simply did not pay attention-allow me to educate you on some common biker terms:

Trike: a three wheel motorcycle for those too old to climb on a regular motorcycle

 Turtle shell-a helmet that looks like a turtle shell and not unlike what the Germans wore in "Hogan's Heroes"

Ape hanger: a motorcycle where the driver has to reach up to the handle bars and dangle like a monkey as he/she drives. In Arkansas, the legal limit is 15 inches. I don't think the people driving Ape hangers even care.

 

Fat boy: a reference to the tire on the motorcycle not the person driving it
