Playing with cameras

This is Mishkin’s favorite sleeping position on his blanket which resides on the couch…

We call this sleeping position "roadkill."  Cats really know how to relax and sleep.

Both our computers have webcams and when the program doesn’t freeze solid it takes an ok picture.  It also takes little videos but we haven’t figured out a way to convert them to a format anybody besides us can see.

Me and Terry; she was more interested in trying to get to the keyboard than she was posing nicely for the camera.

And here she is again…

She sits peacfully on Dan's hand, doesn't chew on things or try to get into too much mischief.

We have been noticing a tree in our front yard which has flowered every year since we moved here but until this year had never produced any fruit.  Well, surprise, surprise.

This tree is over twenty feet tall and the fruit is way up over my head.  We think it is a Quince.

This tree is over twenty feet tall and the fruit is way up over my head. We thought it was a Quince but my friend Diana says it is a Shiro Plum.

Our little tiny fruits, roughly an inch long and almost as round, are starting to fall off the tree onto the ground.  They do have a nice floral smell.  Interesting!  Maybe this next year we will give the tree some food and water it to see if it will produce fruit again.  It explains why the fruit is falling on the ground.  We did taste one and sho’ nuff it is a plum.  The guy who built this house planted plum trees all over the property and it makes sense this would be another type of plum.  I have such smart friends 🙂

This is a very pretty tree, flowers in the spring, amazingly enough fruit! in the summer, and gorgous color in the fall.
