Grand Kitty. Her name is Olivia. My son found a small cat outside his Sprint store. Her name is now Olivia and she is 8 months old according to the vet. We think she hitched a secret ride from somewhere and wandered over to the store. She was in excellent health and clean as a whistle. Solid white head to tip of her tail. And do check out those beautiful eyes. Even the vet commented on the colors. She is a honey and purrs all the time. They all are enjoying their addition to the family. Olivia will go to the front door when she hears Brents car come home and run to the door and wait for him to come in.

Now this might not sound like much of a story - however - here is the first part of the story. My DIL has had pets all her life and my grandchildren having lived with her family in the grandmothers home have always had cats in their lives. After they moved into their own home my son, who never had pets and didn't like living with the pets in his MIL's home has said NO to every plea for a cat/dog. Now who is it that called his wife and said to her, come see this cat??  A man that has 4/5 employees in his store, one of which would have taken the cat home, called his wife instead. Strange that he didn't just let someone else take ms kitty for their own. We try not to tease him about it. But he likes the cat and the cat likes him. Nuff' said on that.

Finally the freeze has killed back the rest of the tender plants. Looks like I will be out cutting everything back tomorrow. If all goes well, I am going to finish a piece of lattice that I want to put at a section of fence. Tired of waiting for my friend to come do this one project.

It is time for Turkey!!  Not my favorite food but I love everything that goes with it. We have been invited to a neighbors home this year. I seldom cook on T-day as our kids are scattered and she knows this. So I am looking forward to seeing how her family celebrates. And looking forward to some good eats.  Then my DIL's sister always has T-day dinner at her house so we may have to go there for a visit. (note to self do not eat again!)

Posted pix of the new grand kitty and will go now and post some fall pictures I took walking home from my sons house this afternoon. Doubt I will get more than that done tonight. There is another world outside of GG???
