The River, north of home by about 20 miles.
RiverThe view north from the same spot. It was raining hard and the weather made the view even more spectacular.

whitecapsNot quite an island but more than a sand bar. (Those shadowy bluffs in the background are The Cheese State.)

not so tropicalThis is another of my parents' cats, the most shy one. She was not at all happy with me taking pictures during dinner time.
not meek, just carefulEventually even she could not resist the allure of chicken scraps--particularly since she recently had a litter and needs to rebuild her strength. Mama Gray is probably a pretty big cat when she's at fightin' weight.
