Good morning on this cool, cloudy Wednesday! I have my heat on all the time now so it is nice and comfortable inside. Not many people out walking around these days. But even in the cool weather it is important to get out for some fresh air and exercise.

Even if it is just a short walk, it is better than sitting inside all the time. There is a man here that takes his cat out for a walk, on a leash. The cat is on the leash, not the man. I can just imagine trying to put something like that on Muffin. My arms would be minus their skin.

Looking across the lake to an island.

But some cats are quite calm and it is easy to put a harness on them with a leash. The one this guy uses for his cat looks like a sweater. Sometimes it is best to start these things when the cat is young. Because of Muffin’s past she is afraid of being “tied up”, or held back in any way.

However, she seems quite content with being an inside cat now. Although she does like being on the balcony, but she does not like looking over the edge. It is a good thing there is that safety netting on there, it would stop her from falling off the balcony. But it does hinder taking pictures which is unfortunate.

Here is that same island.

Oh well. There are always good points and bad points to things. We just need to concentrate on the good points, not the negative points. But that does not mean neglecting the negative. The leaves of the aspens are changing color now, they are usually the last ones to change around here.

A location outside of town.

They are a bit late this year though, probably because of the warm September that we enjoyed this year. I have a few more photos to share with you today. Have a wonderful day everyone and God bless!

Steve and Muffin.
