Sunday June 10/12 update
Yesterday I am sure you all noted that GringoTree again put up the wrong blog address so we got a flood of views from a few of their 4,000 subscribers for 24 hours.  Only a few of those bothered to look at the right blog that was meant to be on the GringoTree list.  I had sent a correction to GringoTree but I guess they were too busy to make the adjustment.   What I did find interesting is the Google tracker of where these views come from.  I am enclosing a small map from yesterday and the green represents views, while more views are a darker green meaning we have views from England, Germany, Arabia, Latvia, Russia, Australia, Brazil, Ecuador, USA and Canada.  This truly is getting to be a much smaller world.
This morning I decided to take a crack at combining 3 small videos of Tom taken over the last 3 days using my Nero Express program.   I am still waiting to get a better early morning video in the sunshine to show off Tom’s colours but neither Tom nor the weatherman is cooperating.
The weather wasn’t bad today, it just never broke into any nice stretch of sunshine so I stayed home and finished this book I’ve been painfully reading for about 2 months.  I could never get into the ridiculous ways the bad guy kept showing up with the upper hand.
I took three more videos of Tom but they were crap so I won’t bore you with them.
We potted the three trees we bought yesterday.  They look rather good on the terrace so hopefully we’ll be making our own lemon-lime drinks soon.
The boys seem to be getting into long-term habits, peso bunking with Bella and noisy Pancho with me.  Pancho can be an early riser when he is hungry and he doesn’t care who he wakes up to satisfy those hunger pangs.  Of course Bella could sleep through a tornado so I get the early morning call.  Peso used to come down as soon as he would hear me in the kitchen but not any more.  He is getting into Bella’s sleeping rhythm.   Peso stays as skinny as ever but Pancho is getting so bottom heavy we can hardly lift him.
There was this beautiful red bird outside yesterday and today but I haven’t managed to get a clean shot or video.  Birds generally don’t sit still for long.
RIP to our cousin Joe Laliberte, passed away June 5.
Enjoy the pics and videos.    That was today’s excitement.    Hugs to all.
