Random Fridays

Mom spent last weekend in TN with her parents. They spent Monday driving up into the Smoky Mountains and looking around. But it was HOT!!!

so pretty

the bears were out - do you see the one up in the tree?

 Part of the Smoky Mountains near mom's parents includes a section called Cade's Cove. When the national government decided to take over the area as a national park, they found a cove in the middle of the mountains with several families living there. The families were given a lifetime lease and grandpa said the last family left in the 1960's.

It sure is pretty there....

Mom is feeling a little better. She says the hardest part now is that she hasn't had much to eat in several days and it makes her head fuzzy.

Plans for the weekend??  It is supposed to be cooler here. Mom will have a transport on Saturday and then Sunday takes the kittens to Petco and then to the Kitten Shower for Colony Cats. If you are in the area, be sure to stop by to see us (she should be at the shower about 2:30pm or so and Petco 11-2).

We tried it before, but mom says she REALLY got the random-felines.com to work this time. You can still use the old link, but it is nice to be using the domain name. :)

The kittens are doing well after their vaccinations. They are bouncing around like they are spring loaded.

Tennessee

Mom's brother is being moved by his job to Tennessee.

Everyone asks if mom is moving but it isn't as easy for her, so most likely not. But she will be going back and forth to see grandma and grandpa once they move too.

Grandma and grandpa are building a house and have bought the land.

There are trees and bushes and STICKERS!!!  They spent Sunday trying to find the lot lines - something about stakes in the woods. We kinda got excited until mom explained it was metal stakes not the edible ones. drat.....  Grandpa did lose the battle with the stickers. Well, sorta - the stickers got cut down a little, but mom says grandpa's hands look like he did combat with a chainsaw.

that is grandpa's back and you can see Rob in the background

Mom also got a tour of the new building where her brother will be working. It was HUGE.

Not so wordless Wednesday

So over the weekend, mom was in Tennessee. Her brother is being transferred up there for work and grandma and grandpa are planning to move down there too.....  move about that tomorrow.

For now, we thought you might enjoy seeing our cousin Max.

Max is 15 years old. He moved to Tennessee with mom's brother. The other cat and the dog polar bear are still in Florida but will come up once they have a new house. In the meantime, Max seems to be enjoying having all the space and quiet to himself. MOL
