Fiat Lux

It's Latin for 'Let there be Light'

Bear, playing Guardian of the Cable Box. I really need to put that stuff away (or throw it out) one of these days.

And if he weren’t doing such a sucessful job at guarding it, it would long have been gone.

We ‘adopted’ a stray Tom over the last several month. It started with him showing up looking hungry, so he let me feed him. Not long ago, on a cold night he actually let me pick him up, we had negotiated that ear scratches were OK, and bring him in, but he wanted his bowl, not the other cats’ bowls. OK. He goes out a lot.

Yesterday he goes out at his normal 6 AM, shows up this morning about 9, wants breakfast and goes back out. We have 8 inches of snow on the ground, did you know cats make good plows? We haven’t seen him since.
