Coffee On Tuesday. #6

Hi everyone! Time to get yourself another cup of coffee and relax for a few minutes with me. It is another cloudy day here, and still somewhat cool. But that is about to change beginning tomorrow as warmer weather moves into our area finally. It will be nice to have those real spring like temperatures back again. Especially since it is almost summer, which begins in just 4 days.

Meteorological summer anyway, which is June, July and August. That certainly fits better for those of us in the north. The flowering trees and shrubs are just getting into full bloom now and they are really starting to look fantastic. And since it will be sunny tomorrow I am really hoping to get out and take some pictures. Well, I got a bit sidetracked there for a bit and got away from my laptop before getting this finished this morning.

This chipmunk I had named Rusty. And he has a big peanut in that cheek.

Oh well, I’m back again, still saying nothing much, just kind of rambling along. Muffin is curled up with me on my recliner as I type, and she dreams. Just finished my lunch, though I must say that eating some crackers for lunch is not really very exciting, though it does work and I really don’t mind it at all. But it is kind of strange I guess. Oh well.

It is so nice and green looking out across the town now, though there are still a few trees that do not have their leaves fully out yet. I need to go out and water my flowers on the balcony this afternoon before they start to wilt. Muffin will likely wake up and come with me when I do that. She likes to have some balcony time every day, though on those cooler, rainy days she did not want to stay out there very long.

This one I think was Scooter sitting on the deck.

And she prefers to have me out there with her, which is not going to happen on those cooler days. But today should be nice enough to be outside for a while. I really should go for a walk this afternoon too. I am going to show some pics of my little furry friends, that I used to have, and I certainly do miss them.

Seems kind of odd sitting on my balcony and not having all those chipmunks running around, running up my legs and sitting on my lap and getting their peanuts from that blue plastic cup that I held between my knees. And sometimes filling my pockets with extra peanuts. That is how Pocket got his name.

And this one is Skamper, on my knee.

He discovered those extra peanuts and started going into my pockets to get his peanuts. He always loved doing that. Just his tail hanging out of my pocket as he filled his cheeks. And if danger came along he ran into a pocket for protection. Well, guess I better get out and check on those flowers. Have a great day everyone and God bless!

Steve and Muffin.
