"Planet of the Cats"

I just came across this vid of Cat House on the Kings, a cat (and dog) sanctuary in California. Check it out and spread the word.

So Long Summer

Last Saturday we were at a surprise birthday party for a friend and the next night I was GOH at dinner (a bit less grand then it sounds as they had a lot of extra vegetables in their garden and used me as an excuse to give a small dinner party *g*). I returned to NYC on Wednesday after 2 glorious weeks in Fargo. The contrast is jarring - one minute you're in nice, peaceful Fargo and a few hours later you're in the big, bustling city.  All in all I had a great time. The most memorable moment was the rides on the Zipper but the most satisfying thing was the sending of care package to the soldier in Afghanistan (which I'll probably do again later this fall). I'm already looking forward to next August.
