What I See Wednesday

I have a new beau.  His name is Bo. He is very shy, but he still serenades me every day.  He loves it when I give him a shower in the morning.  Mr. MoonCat knows about him and approves of our relationship, he's not green at all about my new guy.  Of course, my new guy IS green...  Meet Bo-Frog, my new Boyfriend..

Bo singing to me

This little cutie lives in a pot of lavender on our front porch.  I first discovered him last week when I was watering the plants.  This little froggy voice piped up and was singing away.  He sits in the same spot every morning and evening and serenades us with his song.

And They're Off...to the Races

Mr. MoonCat has led a deprived existence.  He had never been to a horse race, until yesterday that is...

The Big Fresno Fair is winding up this coming weekend and Pops decided that my hubby HAD to experience the races before they are done!  We ended up spending the afternoon at the track and had a ball.  (We never did get to go inside the fairgrounds, it was unbelievably packed for a Monday and it was pretty warm.)

Mr. MoonCat and another friend who went with us to celebrate his big 19th birthday both had extremely good beginner's luck.  On the very first race they each won $50!  On mule racing to boot!  It was so much fun going with the two of them and my dad.  We all had a lot of laughs and grimaces throughout the day.  I was thrilled that on the very last race, my two long(er)-shots came in together and I won $56.00!  On a $2 bet, that's pretty cool..

A Glorious Day

Mr. MoonCat and I ran away once again to the Sierra Foothills for a day filled with fabulous food, great music, and lots of greenery.

It was time again for the annual Harvest Arts and Peace Festival at the Intermountain Nursery.  If you recall, we went up there last year and had a wonderful time.  I had a fantabulous Portabella Mushroom Steak sandwich and hubby ate some luscious-smelling Greek food (couldn't tell you what it was..)

We saw many neat booths and sights:

Listened to some great music by Poor Man's Poison:

And made some purchases of our own:

Isn't this Garlic Keeper neat?

Love is a flower that grows in any soil, works its sweet miracles undaunted by autumn frost or winter snow, blooming fair and fragrant all the year, and blessing those who give and those who receive.
